In the message "The Purpose of Power", Pastor Jerry looks at Acts 1:8 where it says "Ye shall receive power, after The Holy Ghost is come upon you...". That word power is Dunames or Dynamis. Which is power, strength, or ability... It's the root for the word Dynamo, and Dynamite... (It's an inherent power... a built-in power, or inherited power... A power give by our Heavenly Father through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.) You could say it's the empowerment to accomplish a purpose... for which you were made! I believe each of us has a purpose, and I believe God gives each of us the power to accomplish whatever our purpose is. As a Christian, your purpose is tied to God's bigger plan... IT IS BIGGER THAN YOU. Once we find our purpose, He empowers us to complete it. No one is ever given power or authority (Dynamis) so they can just do nothing with it. The purpose of the power... is to make you fruitful in the Kingdom. We are the branches and Jesus Christ is the vine. As long as we are connected to Him, we will bear fruit. The Purpose of Power is to enable us to do that thing we were created for! That might be anything, but whatever it is... It will honor God and point others to Him.
