🔸 Thriving, Not Just Surviving, as a Christian Woman
spiritual power for women,God’s strength for Christian women and empowered woman of God
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses…” — Acts 1:8 (NIV)
“She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.” — Proverbs 31:25 (NIV)
“You weren’t created to live a powerless life. You were called to walk in divine strength, boldness, and purpose. Explore tools and teachings that empower women to thrive in faith and power.”
The moment the walls of Jericho came crashing down, a divine energy surged through the camp of Israel. It was more than a military victory—it was a spiritual ignition. The people had obeyed. God had shown up. And now, a new kind of power was released.
In the same way, when your Jericho falls, you don’t just step into freedom—you step into fire. A holy, thrilling fire. A Spirit-born power that transforms your walk, your voice, your worship, and your purpose.
This chapter is for every woman who is ready to thrive, not just survive—to live thrilling in power.
To thrill means to feel intense excitement or joy. When you thrill in power, you don’t just experience God’s strength—you enjoy it. You live from it. You are no longer hiding behind your battles. You step forward with your eyes blazing and your spirit alive.
Living boldly, not fearfully
Speaking prophetically, not apologetically
Moving in faith, not hesitation
Enjoying the authority Jesus gave you, without guilt or shame
2 Timothy 1:7 says,
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
Before Jericho, Israel was wandering, wondering, weary. After Jericho, they were a terrifying force. So much so that the next cities began to fear them before they even arrived.
That’s what happens when God moves in your life: your spiritual atmosphere changes.
You become a woman the enemy regrets messing with. You become a threat.
You are no longer the one being chased—you’re the one taking territory.
You speak with boldness and don’t second-guess yourself.
You step out in faith without needing every detail.
You pray as if heaven is backing you—because it is.
You don’t shrink to fit comfort zones—you expand them.
Let’s get this straight: you won’t always “feel” powerful. But power isn’t a feeling—it’s a mantle you carry by faith.
Just like Elijah passed his cloak to Elisha, God has passed down a spiritual mantle to you—a mantle of power, purpose, and presence.
When you operate under this mantle:
Chains break
Doors open
Heaven moves
God doesn’t empower you to make you popular—He empowers you to advance His kingdom.
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses…” — Acts 1:8
The power is not just to feel good, but to:
Prophesy life where death has ruled
Intercede fiercely where apathy existed
Create change where stagnation once lived
Lead boldly where fear once whispered
This is not the time to be quiet, sister. This is your moment to roar in the Spirit.
Sometimes, the more power we walk in, the more tempted we are to forget who gave it.
Stay humble. Remember, it’s God’s power through you—not your own.
You can’t walk in boldness and be worried about who approves of you.
Galatians 1:10 (NIV):
“Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God?”
The more powerful you become, the more strategic your community must be. Stay connected. Warriors walk in ranks.
You can’t pour out what you haven’t received. To maintain your power, you need regular refills from the presence of God.
Worship keeps the fire burning.
Scripture keeps your sword sharp.
Prayer keeps your spirit tuned.
Obedience keeps your feet aligned.
If you want to live thrilling in power, you must remain anchored in intimacy with God.
“Apart from Me you can do nothing.” — John 15:5
Like Deborah: Who judged a nation and prophesied victory
Like Jael: Who ended a battle with a tent peg in her hand
Like Mary Magdalene: Who didn’t wait to be invited, but ran to tell the resurrection story
Like You: Yes, you—rising, roaring, reclaiming, and ruling in your spiritual territory
What does "power" mean to you right now in your faith walk?
Have you ever shrunk back from your spiritual authority? Why?
What is one bold step you can take this week to thrill in God’s power?
I am a woman of power, purpose, and presence. The Spirit of the Living God fills me with fire. I will not shrink. I will not hide. I will live boldly, speak prophetically, and move fearlessly. I am thrilling in the power of the Most High God. My Jericho has fallen, and now I rise in authority, clothed in divine strength!
Thrilling in power doesn’t mean life gets easier. It means you become stronger. It means you stop being intimidated and start being intentional.
You are not powerless.
You are not timid.
You are not forgotten.
You are anointed, appointed, and armed.
So go ahead, sis—thrill in the power God has given you. Use it. Enjoy it. Multiply it.
This is your season to walk in fire, roar in faith, and advance the kingdom.
