Have you ever wondered why the power button symbol looks like it does? I did so I did some research. It’s actually because of binary code. In computers, 1 is true or “on”, and 0 is false or “off”.
So if you have a piece of equipment that has a 0 and 1 (which appears to be a line) the 0 is off and the 1 is on. The power button symbol is these 2 combined. The circle with a line in it is actually 0 and 1 together.
So I’d like to try to explain this in a spiritual way. We are the 0 and by ourselves we have no power. God is the 1; Mark 12:29 KJV And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.
If we allow God in the center of our lives to interrupt our “circle” (our lives) then we will have power.
Luke 24:49 KJV And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
That power was inserted into the lives of those listeners in Acts chapter 2.
Acts 2:1-4 KJV 1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Their lives were definitely interrupted. Their lives were changed and they were never the same again. You can have that power too. If you are willing to let God interrupt your life and become the center of it.
John 15:4-5 KJV 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
