Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
Remember everything I said yesterday, and remember that this is a single letter to a group of dispersed believers. Please read it in that context and frame the applications accordingly. But also, be amazed that "Elijah was a man with a nature like ours." We read these stories in the Bible, and we think how incredible these godly people were. We are impressed by their resolve. We are in awe of their boldness. We are mystified by their faithfulness. Somehow, we forget that they served the same God we serve. We forget that they had the same Holy Spirit working in and through them that we do. Perhaps the reason we lack power in our Christian lives is because we have not come to know well this God we serve. Or, scarier still, we only think we know God but have never actually entered into a relationship with him at all. Before we dismiss that second thought too quickly, I will remind your heart and mine that the Bible is full of people who claimed or believed they walked well with God, but they actually never were people of faith.
One thing we can be sure of is that if we lack the power of God in our lives, it isn't because God is weaker.
