We are gentle sheep but simple-minded I am not. A peaceful and calm and confident Christian lacks no supernatural power at all! He actually has received God's victory over sin thru Jesus on a Cross (pertaining to humans gaining victory over sins; for God never was less than victorious over Sin). In that acceptance of HIs Victory afforded to us - we do things from that position - never to gain victory, but only to conquer sinfulness thru the power of love. If God has my back, in serving Him as He commissions me, how defenseless am I?
But when I leave His power and protection to go out and start a war with Satan on my terms - look out! For I have left God back there. And God will continue to go at His own pace having a purposeful walk, secured in victory...
I pray we see the light in His Peace which never lacks power but rather authors it. As we seek to reconcile men and women according to His will in real time.
