God Thinking XCVI - Getting Your Unbelief Under Control 6

"Ephesians 3:14-20
 14.  For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
 15.  Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
 16.  That He would grant you, (now you have got to get this down in your believer - down in the depths of your heart - down in the roots where you are truly strengthened and held up.  The you in this verse is you.  You are the person that God is speaking to.  Even though I am speaking to more than one person, each person is the one person that God is addressing in this verse) That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man;
  • This inner man is the one who hears the voice of God. 
  • This inner man is the one who knows right from wrong. 
  • This inner man is the one who has been bidden to come and follow the Christ. 
  • This inner man is the one who God communes with in the cool of the day. 
  • This inner man is the one who was made in the image and likeness of God.
  • This inner man is the one who says, “You can do it.”
  • This inner man is the one who understands when the Word is preached.
  • This inner man is the one who is true to you.
  • This inner man is the one who does not lie so that you can get what you want.
  • This inner man is the one that God is talking to right now.
  • This inner man has the authority to say no to the flesh.
  • This inner man has the authority to say yes to God and mean it.
If you would allow your inner man to answer the call to God today, you will have more control over your life and over your flesh than ever before."
