I’d like to say that I lost a bet with my husband and had to watch all the Star Wars movies, but I didn’t; I consciously chose to watch all the Episodes, and a few extras.
Although the older Episodes are not the greatest quality now, and some were a little tedious to watch. I was pleasantly surprised at the profoundness in each Episode, and the important spiritual lessons that I was reminded of.
One of those reminders was a common thread throughout the Episodes with a small group known as the Jedi.
The Jedi are seemingly ordinary people who tap into the force within them to gain personal peace, strength and wisdom.
Everyone has the force flowing in and through them, however only these few choose to embrace it, and train themselves to harness it.
Unlike a fantasy, we really are born with a force within us; we are created in the image of Christ, likewise, we need to choose to tap into this gift to harness its power; a power for healing, peace-keeping, truth-seeking and wisdom.
This “force” within us is the Holy Spirit, God’s presence, to equip us to withstand anything.
Ephesians 6:10 TPT
Now my beloved ones, I have saved these most important truths for last.
Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you.
We don’t need to rely on our own strength, rather trust that God’s presence will supernaturally infuse our lives. This infusion is within us, not something that is necessarily noticeable by others, but a strength that is felt by the ones who choose to embrace it.
Will you choose to embrace this supernatural infusion of strength?
Will you choose to be equipped to handle life’s challenges with grace?
Will you choose to allow God’s strength to be your strength in all circumstances?
