Power Disguised in Weakness

Power Disguised in Weakness
“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
a broken and a contrite heart—these, O God, You will not despise.”
-PSALM 51:17

We must never seek the power of Pentecost without first tasting the suffering of the Cross. The Cross is Power disguised in Weakness. There is a saying, “Absolute power corrupts absolutely.” We can just as well say that spiritual power obtained apart from the weakness of the Cross will corrupt also.

​​​​​​​This is why the Lord leads us first to Calvary, then on to Pentecost. We dare not bypass Calvary in our haste to experience Pentecost.
