			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Focal Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-21 (NIV)</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,  21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.</p></blockquote>
<p>The definition of power is the ability to do or act; the capability of doing or accomplishing something. According to this description, all power is designed to accomplish something! When God created us, he designed us to be productive. In Genesis 1:28, He instructed us to: <em>“be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.” </em>This verse speaks to the intended dominion given to mankind divinely by God.</p>
<p>According to Ephesians 1:15-21, God has given us <strong>power</strong>. The question becomes, if God has given us all of this POWER, then why do so many believers live POWERLESS lives?</p>
