How does the power of the cross work in saints today? The Spirit applies the working of the cross by the word of God.  He releases into your spirit what God has spoken in His word. Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Colossians 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Luke 9:23  …If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. These words and all the words of God are important. Through the word of God the power of God is at work in every believer and in every situation.
