How To Tap Into God's Energeo!

Seems basic enough but tapping into the Holy Spirit's energy isn’t about hype or emotion—it starts with surrender. James 5:16 says, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective (energeō).” When we pray, we’re plugging into God’s power source, inviting Him to work in and through us.

Sometimes, God’s energy works quietly. Galatians 5:6 reminds us, “The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love (working - energeō).” As we trust and love, God’s energy through His Holy Spirit flows through us in ways we might not even notice. Even small acts of kindness or patience are evidence of His power at work.

So how do we make this practical? Start by inviting the Holy Spirit into your day. Ask Him to energize your thoughts, words, and actions. Be alert to His direction and prompting. Attune your spiritual hearing to His voice and learn to hear the voice of God for yourself. The Holy Spirit's energeō is always available, if we will but let Him lead.

Every time you see the Holy Spirit at work—whether it’s patience in a tough moment, courage to do the right thing, or love for someone difficult—celebrate it! These are signs that His energeō is alive in you. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” It’s not about being perfect; it’s about letting God’s energy, through His Spirit, flow through your life.

The Holy Spirit's energeō is available every day, not just in big moments but in the ordinary routines of life. As you surrender, trust, and invite Him in, you’ll discover a new source of strength and joy that never runs dry.
