Yaa Devi Sarva Bhooteshu Shakti Roopena Samsthita
Namastasyai Namastasyai Namastasyai Namo Namaha

Meaning:Salutations again and again to the Devi (Goddess) who resides
in all beings in the form of Shakti (creative power).
Shakti, has three aspects- Ichha Shakti, Gyan Shakti, Kriya Shakti, represents the creative aspect or the Power that enables Sarva Bhuta- all the living beings, to act, perform, move in their respective lives. Here Shakti is neither male nor female. It's the formless Power of the Supreme Consciousness.
This verse is from Devi Stuti of Durga Saptashati, used to awaken, invoke, pray to the Supreme Power, who appears in her feminine powerful aspect, which was needed, since all other efforts to defeat the enemy had failed. Hence Shakti was prayed to take a form, who then appeared as Goddess, whom we call by various names, Durga, Amba, Mahalakshmi, Mahakali etc.
Shakti also means ability to act, materialise ideas, actualise as per required by the time. Only the Supreme Goddess, mother Shakti herself, could help. This verse is to praise one of the most important aspect of her.
