Several words in the New Testament Greek reveal that God expects His children to have great faith and bold courage in these tumultuous times we’re living in. But He doesn’t expect us to have this courage on our own. He has actively equipped us through the inner might and inner workings of His Spirit. This equipment empowers us to be a fearless church, and a beacon of light to a world full of fear, uncertainty, and anxiety.

VF-2463 2Timothy 1:7

God builds His church through the work and activity of the Holy Spirit in us, not by human enterprise. Paul’s description of being crucified with Christ is an identification with Him by the power of the Resurrection. That power changes the believer from what they were to one in union with Christ. He gave His life for us. A reflection on that should produce a pattern of devotion toward God. VF-2462 Galatians 2:20

Christ said that He is the vine and we are the branches connected to Him. Without Him, we can do nothing. But as long as we remain connected to Him and His word, He will bring forth fruit in us. VF-2461 John 15:1-17
