Power

Thank God for His willingness to help you leave your past behind and build you a new future. Nothing is impossible with Him.

One day you will look to your Maker. Please don’t wait until “that day.” Turn your eyes to the Holy One today!

God’s work in our lives causes onlookers to “see” what He has done, “fear” His mighty power, and “put their trust in the Lord.” Wait patiently for the Lord. Help is on the way!

This life is short. The believer, regardless of earthly suffering, will spend eternity in heaven. The wicked, regardless of earthly “prosperity,” will spend eternity in hell.

The arm of flesh versus the hand of God. Be confident. God will have His way every time!

Sad, isn’t it, when a person wastes so much potential? Hmm . . . but . . . I have the Spirit of the living God living in me. I have the resurrection power right in my person. What am I doing for the sake of Christ? How are life’s distractions keeping me from being all God wants me to be?

The fact is that we are not going to get out of this life alive. One day, all too soon, we will be gone. When our children leave our grave and walk to their cars, will they do so in the power of the Spirit or with meaningless religious remnants?

How does one acquire such a full-out faith? I believe the answer is this: a firsthand experience of God’s power and faithfulness. You cannot live a wholehearted faith just by hearing the stories of God’s great work. You have to experience it up close and personal.

Doubting God is a disease that continues to infect the human heart. God provides sin’s sacrifice; we proclaim self-sufficiency. God provides forgiveness; we carry our sin. God promises never to leave us; we feel alone.
