Cognate: 2478 isyrós (an adjective, derived from 2479/isys, "engaging, combative strength") – mighty, strong. For the believer, 2478 (isxyrós) is God's power "standing by" – ready to unleash itself to bring about His preferred-will, through faith (cf. 2307 /thélēma, 4102 /pístis). This engaging strength is always and immediately available from the Lord, which accomplishes His assignments (cf. 1 Jn 5:4). See 2479 (isys).
