'The Power of God!"

 

“The Power of God!”

 

The Counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His Heart to all generations.   Psalms 33:11

 

First, we see the POWER of GOD in His Word, by His WORD the heavens were made, and by the BREATH of His Mouth all their host.  He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deep in storehouses. (vv6&7) So, we see that God merely SPOKE and Creation came into existence.  This is evidence of the POWER of GOD’S WORD.

 

For He SPOKE, and it was DONE; He COMMANDED, and it STOOD FAST. (v9) ONLY the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY has the POWER to SPEAK things into existence.  And ONLY He has the POWER to SAVE mankind from their SINS, and from an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after they are there.  No man or beast, no matter, how STRONG, nor how much POWER they possess, can SAVE mankind from their SINS, nor RESTORE their RELATIONSHIP with GOD, Himself.  Certainly, such a POWERFUL GOD with such POWERFUL WORDS and WORKS deserves our PRAISE and ADORATION.  

 

The POWER of the ALMIGHTY GOD, was exemplified, by His ONLY SON, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who came and lived as a man, but was SINLESS and PERFECT in EVERY WAY, He was the PERFECT ONE to SAVE WRETCHED, SINFUL, CONDEMNED mankind and to bring them ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, by His SACRIFICIAL DEATH and VICTORIOUS RESURRECTION and VICTORY over DEATH and the GRAVE. 

 

He took our sins and our PUNISHMENT and NAILED them to an OLD RUGGED CROSS.  And SECURED US an ETERNAL PLACE in Heaven, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  It is by the POWER of His PRECIOUS BLOOD that we are CLEANSED from ALL our TRANSGRESSIONS.  But, if you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you have NOT BEEN CLEANSED by the BLOOD of JESUS, and you are headed for an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPE, once you are there. 

 

In order to EXPERIENCE the POWER of GOD, to have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, and to ESCAPE HELL, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER, in NEED of a SAVIOR, the ONLY ONE who has the POWER to SAVE, JESUS CHRIST.  And you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, ask Him for His FORGIVENESS, and WILLINGLY TURN AWAY FROM your sinful life-style.  You MUST ACCEPT Gods Gift of SALVATION, and BELIEVE and TRUST in the POWER of GOD.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
