HIS DIVINE POWER


In this day and age when many of us are going through difficult trials, situations or dilemmas and everyone around you seems to be so involved in their own dilemma, its difficult to see God’s hand moving in your situation and its taking all your strength not to give in and give up. So you hold on anyway, by that single thread of strength.

Well, that single thread, that kind of strength that you are holding on to, cannot be your own. It can only be from God. It’s not that you are not strong, but He is stronger. 2Peter 1:3 says, “His divine power is given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue”. HIS DIVINE POWER! We have to understand that God is so much Bigger and Greater than we think. He is beyond our thought realm, our idea, and concept that we have of Him. (Isaiah 55:8 says, “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are my ways your ways,” Says the Lord.) There is nothing beyond His ability.

So, no matter what you are going through, you have the blessed assurance of God’s love and His promises. You can solely rely on Him, that He has all the strength and power you need. It’s guaranteed, because His promises are forever. There is nothing beyond His ability, whether it’s a marriage to be reconciled, debt cancellation, a memory to be healed, a sin to be forgiven, healing and wholeness in your body, whatever it is that is paralyzing you, God can heal it. Take it to Him. Imagine this for a minute, if God has the power to create and sustain the universe, how can you think His power is insufficient for you? He says in II Corinthians 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.”

Stand on His promises! He is more than able to sustain your marriage, finances, faith, hope, and health. HIS DIVINE POWER has given to us, everything we need, all the strength and all the support we need, it’s in Him.
Could it be that just maybe we need to stop relying on ourselves and rely on Him? Psalms 55:22 says, Cast your cares on the Lord. Humble yourself before Him because He promised to lift us up. (Psalm 147:6)
