Technically isn't this speaking of the Father's power?

Part 1
and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20which He worked in Christ

Part 2
when He raised Him from the dead

Part 3
and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

The first part talks about Him (the Father) working in Christ, the next part is talking about He (the Father) raising Him (Jesus) from the dead, the third part talks about Him (Jesus) seated by the Father at His (the Father's) right hand.

Now I know they are both God, and God is all powerful - but this verse does not seem to be speaking of the power of the second person of the Trinity, but of the first.
