To trust God, we must have confidence in His strength and power, as well as His character and ability. God’s strength is manifested to us in diverse ways.
1. CREATION
Isaiah 44:24 NLT
“This is what the LORD says- your Redeemer and Creator: “I am the LORD, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. Who was with me when I made the earth?”
God created all things by His strength and power. God worked alone, sovereignly, to bring forth the creation, into manifestation. God worked alone to establish the earth on its “axis”, and place the sun, moon, stars, planets in the heavens, etc.
Jeremiah 10:12 NKJV
“He has made the earth by His power, He has established the world by His wisdom, and has stretched out the heavens at His discretion.”
Jeremiah 32:17 NKJV
“Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.”
By His strength and power, God separated the sea from the land and set a boundary that the sea cannot cross over. The boundary still holds the sea back from totally overtaking and covering the land.
Job 38:8-11 NKJV
“[8] Or who shut in the sea with doors, when it burst forth and issued from the womb; [9] When I made the clouds its garment, and thick darkness its swaddling band; [10] When I fixed My limit for it, and set bars and doors; [11] When I said, ‘This far you may come, but no farther, and here your proud waves must stop!’”
Not only did God create all things, He established them by His strength and power. The world is established; it cannot be moved, except by Him!
Psalm 93:1 NKJV
“The LORD reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The LORD is clothed, He has girded Himself with strength. Surely the world is established, so that it cannot be moved.”
What great comfort to know that the God we love and trust, as Father, is in created and is in control of the entire universe and upholds it by His power and might! Despite the challenges with global warming, etc, we can take comfort in knowing that God is in control.
Hebrews 1:3a NASBS
“And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power.…”
SING WITH ME…
He’s got the whole world in His hands.
He’s got the whole world in His hands.
He’s got the whole world in His hands.
He’s got the whole world in His hands!
Fulfilling Our Theme For 2024: “Building The Highway And Lifting The Banner”
“And in that day, there shall be a Root of Jesse, who shall stand as a banner to the people; for the Gentiles shall seek Him…. (therefore) Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway! Take out the stones, lift up a banner for the peoples!” [Isaiah 11:10, Isaiah 62:10]
