Philippians 2:13 "God is Working"

Philippians 2:13
For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.

PERSONALIZE IT
For Gd is working in you, Lisa, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him.

APPLY IT
Taking comfort that He is working and changing my desires and giving me the power to be a doer of whatever it is that pleases Him; to do the will of Gd.

EMPHASIS
For God is working IN you, giving you the DESIRE and the POWER to DO what pleases him.

IN- this reminds me of the “your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit”. It is inside of me.

DESIRE- “you are tempted by your own desires of what is in your heart”. Gd is working us on giving us or putting Godly desires in our hearts.

POWER- more than just the ability, more than just strength.

DO- not just hear or think, but to DO. We are doers of the word.

HIM- what HIS will is, not mine, not yours.

PRAY IT
Dear God, thank you for working in me, and not abandoning me. Thank you for changing me from the inside and giving me the Holy desire and the power to do your will for my life. I pray I fulfill your desire and please you. I pray I utilize the power given to me by you to DO what IS pleasing to you, and not to me nor man. Amen.
