op - ẽr - ā´shun ( מעשׂה , ma‛ăseh , "work"; ἐνέργεια , enérgeia , ἐνέργημα , enérgēma , "energy"): Twice used in the Old Testament of God's creative work ( Psalm 28:4 , Psalm 28:5; Isaiah 5:12 ). The Holy Spirit's inworking and power are manifest in the bestowal of spiritual gifts on individuals and on the church ( 1 Corinthians 12:6 the King James Version), and in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, through which energy or operation of God those dead in sins are, through faith, raised to newness of life ( Colossians 2:12 the King James Version).
