If you could understand the Bible completely your mind would fry after reading one verse. The depth of, power of, and the reality that His word draws is so far beyond what we know. Powerful is an incredible understatement. It's like there's anough energy in one thing that is of God (Which are everywhere - everythign that is good) to blow this whole universe to pieces literally, and in ways we can't imagine, in realms we know not of, and in dimensions we can only speculate on. The power is the direction of God, so it's not randomly released energy (power) or destructive, it's under the complete control of God.
Indeed. That is why we receive spiritual impartation form the Holy Spirit - so that we may know the things beyond our knowing. A couple of pounds of gray matter cannot contain this.
Use your imagination and take your view of this world from "matter" to "God's will" and all of the sudden the world and flesh is incredibly weak and in Christ you are incredibly powerful. Because you, the real you, is a part of the body. A part of this controled energy. You alone, in Christ, are more powerful than you can comprhend. To make use of what you are you just submit to Him.

Eph 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
Eph 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
Eph 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
Eph 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
Eph 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Eph 3:21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
