Good -Life Devotional: GOD’S POWER IS PERFECTED IN OUR WEAKNESSES 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

   The power of God is not displayed in human strength, but rather in our weaknesses. As Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 12:9 (AMP), “But He has said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you [My lovingkindness and My mercy are more than enough...]; for My power is being perfected [and is completed and shows itself most effectively] in your weakness.’” God deliberately allows human strength and wisdom to fade so His power can be revealed unhindered.

   Paul, a vessel of God’s power, shared the many trials he endured (2 Corinthians 11:23–33). In verse 26, he highlights dangers from rivers, robbers, and even false brethren. These sufferings were not random—they were a divine training ground. Through adversity, faith is refined, and reliance on God is deepened. Those who operate in God’s power have often endured much, learning through hardship that true strength comes from surrender.

This principle explains why individuals of noble or privileged background rarely walk in the miraculous power of God; self-reliance often replaces dependence on the Lord. Moses understood this truth. As recorded in Hebrews 11:23–29, he chose to suffer with God’s people rather than enjoy the fleeting pleasures of Pharaoh’s palace. That sacrifice led to a life marked by miraculous power.

Thus, Paul concludes in 2 Corinthians 12:10, “Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities... for when I am weak, then am I strong.” Our weaknesses are God’s opportunities. When we step aside, He steps in with power.

 In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and patience in tribulations.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to recover .
