The Bible has already recorded the power of God for Christians to trust Him unconditionally. No matter how painful your situation is; The Lord is more than capable of restoring you. He is the same God who can lock and unlock, heal and destroy. Get ready to feel His presence all over your life.
It goes simple like this: God is a Spirit so Christian believers must worship Him in spirit. However, this relationship looks deeper than you could ever imagine. The power of God exceeds any other power in our universe. That is the only source that can redeem you from any trouble or pain.
He has made his power known through His:
1. Love (1 John 4:8)
2. Fierce anger
Some of His attributes are His:
♦. Eternality (Psalm 90:2)
♦. Holiness, absolute purity and separation from evil (Habakkuk 1:13)
♦. Immutability, or unchanging quality (James 1:17)
♦. Omnipotence, or being all-powerful, the Almighty One – Alpha and the Omega (Revelation 1:8)
♦. Omnipresence, He is everywhere at all times (Psalm 139:7-11)
I would like to tell you something about how God’s right hand can deliver His people and destroys the enemies of His lovely children. So if you really know you are a child of God; then listen attentively… Let me share with you some mind-blowing facts about how our well-being is interconnected with the supernatural.
Honestly, this is a kind of post I’m so passionate about. So don’t skimp through. Have time to read what I have for you. And Don’t forget to share it with everyone. Usually, I don’t write about my personal life matters. And I am not going to say much in this post as well.
Look, I have felt the power of God and seen Him at work in my life, in the lives of other people. I have seen demon-possessed beings(demoniacs) and the manifestation of the power of God in people.
I know very well that, not everything that happens to people is logical or reasonable. Because it emanates from the spiritual world. By knowing all these; I never joke with my spiritual life.
God has the power to make, destroy, kill, bless, protect, heal, curse, condemn, restore, or do anything according to His will. He is unlimited to anything. This is the true power I want to share with you today.
But those who are serious about their relationship with God, it will take an unwavering faith that moves mountains to feel the Lord’s presence and His mighty hand on your life.
Let me tell you this; there are too many evil forces surrounding us. If you are the empty barrel type then you are doomed. Your happiness, success, health, marriage, etc. could be tempered by evil forces if you live a prayerless/faithless life. God who knows all things has said:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians 6:12).
My Most Recent Experience
Just last night I realized a god/demon was spying on me. The question is how did I know?. I hope you are not going to act like an atheist who doesn’t believe in anything.
Well, it happened like this:
During the night I saw a black cat run pass me… I stood there for a minute, knowing there is something going on… Yes, I knew there is something demonic going on. Nothing scared me. I know God has got my back.
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me” (Psalms 23:4).
During the next day whiles having a quick sleep in the afternoon — I had a dream. In the dream, a certain man of God prayed for me. Right after that, he had a vision. He told me a god is chasing me…
Uh oh… that’s not a good thing to hear. I am the kind of guy who never jokes with my dreams because I know its one of the mediums God communicates with his children. You may be interested to read my article about how God manifested Himself to people through dreams.
Back to my chilly story. After waking up and lying on my bed —a call came in. It was a prophetess who has been supporting me in prayers.
I didn’t tell her about my dream. Neither did I tell her about what I saw. But she went ahead telling me enemies of progress are still fighting to bring me down.
She went ahead to reveal to me that I will see a black cat or a black thread. This is something that will send chills deep into your spine and bath you with goosebumps.
What did I just hear?. It was after she revealed that to me before I confirmed to her that — I have already seen that black cat just the previous night.
Now, what is the next thing?… In a situation like this; Fasting and prayers are the greatest weapons to break down the enemy’s plans including their strongholds. At the mention of His name, all knees shall bow.
I am from Africa, a place where witches and wizards are prevalent. They can transform into different creatures to harm their targets. As stupid and arrogant, they are; they use their filthy powers to destroy.
I have seen them use their demonic powers to kill and destroy innocent people. May God protect us now and forevermore.
This is just a brief story of my current spiritual challenge. I constantly want to see the power of God in every facet of my life. You can also expect full protection from the Lord. Whatever the Devil has planned against you in darkness shall be brought to light through the power of God.
Listen, most of these men of God we see around hardly sleep. Temptations and attacks from the evil world never stop. But the good news is that through God — demonic bandage is easily broken. If you really want to feel the power of God in your life — then get closer to Him. He is not far from where you are.
The living God is indeed omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. Before you finish reading this post, I am hopeful, your faith in God would be renewed, additionally, you would come into the realization that when God is on your side anything is possible. He is the one who spoke the world and everything in it into existence.
There Is Only One Thing God Can Not Do
Interestingly, there is nothing on earth or in our universe beyond the strength or knowledge of God.
In fact, there is something an all-powerful God can not do and that is to act contrary to His own character and nature. The book of Titus 1:2 states that He cannot lie — because He is Holy (Isaiah 6:3; 1 Peter 1:16).
♦. God cannot sin. Because He is just, He cannot just overlook sin — Because Christ paid the penalty for sin, and has said; sin will not go unpunished. And as a matter of fact — you reap what you sow.
Jeremiah 32:17 states, “Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.”
Just as I mentioned earlier of this post that God is a Spirit and so we must worship Him in truth and in spirit. So if you are a Christian and you know nothing about spirituality or you are spiritually dead, then I’m really sorry for you.
It is time you brace yourself to encounter the true power of God. Anyone who grows in Spirit through Christ Jesus is unconquerable.
Have you ever thought of why there are too many religions in this world?. Today it has been known that this world hosts about 4,300 religions according to adherent.
They all know we are Spirit-filled beings. But for the sake of this article, I will stick to my mission to inspire people who are in the Christian fraternity.
So over 2 billion people out of the 7 billion are Christians. That is great. Each and every one of us can feel and see the power of God in different ways.
I am drawing your attention to what we call spiritual awareness. This is what will help you witness the power of God in your life.
Angels Depend On The Power Of God
As heavenly creatures of power, glory, and strength, they need the help of the living God to handle any task. They have free will just like humans but without God they are nothing. God is the source of their strength.
And as human beings who believe in God, we must make Him our strength too. He is the rock of ages that if you lean on, you will never fall.
Even Michael the archangel when contending with Satan in Jude 1:9 relied on the help of God. Although having the power and glory of an archangel, Michael called on the Lord to rebuke Satan.
This tells us how powerful Satan is, as well as how dependent Michael is on God’s power. If the archangel looks up to the Lord for his help, why not we also fully become dependent on the Lord for strength and all our needs?.
How Evil Challenges The Power Of God
I believe you know very well that Satan too has the power to do a whole lot of things. Satan and his angels have been fighting against the children of God since they were thrown out of heaven. Take a minute to read about God’s greatest foe called “Lucifer.” He is the ruler of all the evil powers moving around our world.
With their limited power, they seek to deceive and destroy the Children of the Most-High God. God’s power is unlimited so it would be a great idea to seek his help in everything you do. May we always dwell under the mighty wings of the Lord.
“To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me” (Acts 26:18).
God did not cease the powers of Lucifer when he cast him out of heaven. His powers are for deception and destruction. But through the power of the blood of Jesus, you have been redeemed from all the bondages of the Devil. There is too much power in the blood of Christ Jesus. It shook the land of Golgotha.
How They Challenged God And Failed
The Bible has recorded how God demonstrated His power through men like Moses, Samson, Daniel, Elijah, Jonah, Josuah(the sun stood still when upon his command)Peter, Paul, etc. I will only be able to talk about a few of them here.
In all, it is about some of the miracles God performed for His children and the world to know that indeed He is omnipotent God.
Through Him, the lame walks, the blind sees, the dead comes back to life, etc. The vision of the valley of dry bones also teaches us that God is capable of doing anything. So if you are going through challenges — Call on Him and believe that with Him all things are possible.
Miracles are some of the physical evidence that demonstrates the Lord’s power. Now let’s take a look at some of the miraculous things God did to show His power:
1. Fire from heaven
As the prophets of Baal gave in to a challenge from Elijah to set the offering ablaze; the power of God did the unimaginable.
“You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the LORD, and the god who answers by fire, he is God.” All the people answered, “It is well said” (1 Kings 18:24).
“And they took the bull which was given them, and they prepared it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, answer us.” But there was no voice, nor any who answered. And they limped about the altar they c had made” (1 Kings 18:26).
So went like this:
“Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the altar of the LORD that had been torn down.
Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.”
And with the stones, he built an altar in the name of the LORD. And he made a trench around the altar, large enough to contain two seahs of seed.
And he arranged the wood, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood.
And he said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering, and on the wood.” And they did so. d And he said, “Do it a second time”; and they did it the second time. And he said, “Do it a third time”; and they did it the third time.
And the water ran around the altar, and he also filled the trench with water.
It happened at the time of the offering up of the offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, “LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God and that you have turned their heart back again.”
Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
And when all the people saw it, they fell facedown and said, “The LORD, he is God. The LORD, he is God (1 Kings:18:30-39).
2. Miracle Of Snakes In Pharaoh’s House
God demonstrated His power in so many ways when He vowed to set His Children free from oppression. However, Pharaoh threw a lot of challenges because he believes he is more powerful through the help of his wise men, sorcerers, and magicians. In the long run, he failed bitterly because there is no power that surpasses that of God.
“The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
“When Pharaoh says to you, ‘Do a miracle,’ and you say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,’ it will become a snake.”
When Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh, they did so, just as the LORD had commanded them – Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his servants and it became a snake.
Then Pharaoh also summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the magicians of Egypt by their secret arts did the same thing.
Each man threw down his staff, and the staffs became snakes. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs” (Exodus 7:8-12).
There is more than enough physical and spiritual evidence of the manifestation of the power of God. I couldn’t talk more about the power of God, because He is an unfathomable God. We can not fully comprehend his doings. But he has assured every believer not to be afraid of the world because what is inside you is greater than what is out there in the world(1 John 4:4). That same power that rose Jesus Christ from the dead resides in you.
