I cannot believe I have not thought of this verse for (IC)² until now. 
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. ( Eph. 6:10 )
The only way we can be strong enough to resist our enemy the devil ...
... is to be strong in the Lord.
The only power that is greater than any obstacle we face ...
... is the Lord's power.
I Can In Christ ....
... because I am strong in His power.
You got the power?

Thanks for sharing this verse Rick! It does fit in well with the (IC)² idea.

Do you feel like you cannot share your faith with others? Then you need to read Jesus' words in Acts 1:8:
"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses..."
If Christ is in you, then you have the power. 
So ...
You got the power?

Amen Jeffro!! We got the power!!
And check out Eph. 3:20 ...
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,.."
That was from the NIV. Here it is from the NKJV:
"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us..."
His mighty power is at work within us!!!
And it is through that power that He is able to do so much more than we can even imagine!

Another great verse about God's power in our lives ....
I Peter 1:5 says that we "through faith are shielded by God's power".
Remember the shield of faith - HERE?

II Timothy 1:7 - "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (fear), but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."

| Quote: | | Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you. - Psalm 66:3 |
It is that very power that is at work within us!!!
| Quote: | | I pray also 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 the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms ... - Eph. 1:18-20 |
That is my prayer for each you you. That you may know His great power at work within you.

Thank you Bruce.
Another verse that fits this topic of God's mighty power working in and through us ...
"You are awesome, O God, in your sanctuary; the God of Israel gives power and strength to his people. Praise be to God!" - Psalm 68:35
And we are His people. He gives power and strength to us.

| Quote: | Psalm 44:3-8
3 It was not by their sword that they won the land,
nor did their arm bring them victory;
it was your right hand, your arm,
and the light of your face, for you loved them.
4 You are my King and my God,
who decrees victories for Jacob.
5 Through you we push back our enemies;
through your name we trample our foes.
6 I do not trust in my bow,
my sword does not bring me victory;
7 but you give us victory over our enemies,
you put our adversaries to shame.
8 In God we make our boast all day long,
and we will praise your name forever.
Selah |
It is God ... not us.
I Can win the victory in Him alone.
I Can in Christ.
