Join us at Brisbane Central as we commence our new series, NOW Gen. This week Pastor Neli reminds us that God’s call on our lives is intentional and purpose-filled. Remember that God’s true power in our lives calls us to be genuine, not just outwardly strong but inwardly transformed by His Spirit. So lean into that authentic power, allowing God to shape you into a person of real impact and purpose. It’s a call to live with integrity, rejecting superficiality, and choosing a life of substance, grounded in His love. You are empowered by God to make a difference – not as a poser, but as a true vessel of His power.
And God was doing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, so that even handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his skin were carried away to the sick, and their diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them. Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul proclaims.” Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this. But the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?” – Acts 19:11-15 (ESV)
