Ephesians 3:16
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;”
δύναμις
The root of our word dynamite. But dunamis is not explosive destruction — it is the inherent ability to accomplish what needs to be done. Jesus says you will receive this power. Not work for it, earn it or deserve it. Receive it. The Holy Spirit is not a reward. He is a gift.
