The Power of God

"The only power God recognizes in His church is the power of His Spirit, whereas the only power actually recognized today by the majority of evangelicals is the power of man. God does His work by the operation of the Spirit, while Christian leaders attempt to do theirs by the power of trained and devoted intellect. Bright personality has taken the place of the divine afflatus [a divine imparting of knowledge or power]." -A. W. Tozer

How much truer these words are today than decades ago when they were first penned! Oh that God would rend the heavens and come down, bringing true brokenness, repentance, and revival, turning the hearts of His people away from their own worthless ingenuity and back to His own glorious Spirit!
