Power 2.0: Doing the Impossible


God has spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongs unto God. -Psalm 62:11

God, Sovereign, unbound by no rules, has done what you and I can never do. By making His Son Jesus to die for our sins, He has shown HIS great power.

It is the most impossible feat; the most Holy and blameless person who walked this earth took the place of the most sinful and unrighteous men, as He took on the sins of all the world upon His shoulders. This was to make us, we who revelled in our uncleanness, blind and oblivious to our sorry state, become perfect in God's sight.

And why does this show His power? It is because it is a work that not even the strongest, most zealous, enthusiastic person can dream of achieving. It is because it is a work that transcends time and will carry on into eternity. It is because it is a work that no one can dispute, no one can stand against it. God planned and He did it, and no one can come in the way of what He has achieved.

So, by God through Christ, we have been brought to God; no longer candidates of His wrath and now recipients of His eternal life. Reconciled to God.

Who can stand in the way of what He has done? Who can take the glory? God alone has purchased for us the highest good--Himself--paying with the Highest price, Himself.

Psalm 106:8: Nevertheless He saved them for His name's sake, that He might make His mighty power to be known
Matthew 6:13: And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
May God, by His great power, keep us trusting in His great power till the very end.

Love,

Anxiety's Antidote

I found myself fretting about a LOT of things last week. There were bills to pay, deadlines to meet, relationships to build all in a world where each day is filled with uncertainty. The fear of the future got to me like it had never before; I was drowning in my worries about life. But GOD in His mercy heard me even before I prayed for help. I had only just started to notice that my fretting was becoming a problem when GOD spoke to me through His Son. He first reminded me to cast my anxieties on Him because He cares for me ( 1 Peter 5:7 ). I read that but it didn't really sink in. Then, the next day, He reminded me of His promises in Matthew 6:25-34: "Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?" The writer of the devotional stated, "Since your body and life are more complex and difficult to provide than f...

Short-sighted

This is a guest post from my dear Jem. She likes hashtags and writes on her blog too. Check it all out here ! I wear glasses. I’ve been short-sighted from a young age. It’s not been so much of a problem ‘cos Spec-savers fixes that for me. However, there’s a short-sightedness that can ruin our lives if we don’t get our vision back quickly.  This weekend, I got really upset about not being able to do a few things. I’ve wanted to invest in property for a while now and not being financially capable made me really frustrated. All of a sudden, I felt I hadn’t achieved anything in life, I was not on the level of my peers and the cycle of thoughts sent me down a line of ingratitude and an all-time low. Ingratitude. Don’t even get me started. This is the biggest killer of joy and the stealthiest thief of what you actually have. 2 Corinthians 10:12  states “When they measure themselves by themselves, they are not wise”.  Whenever I think of this ...

At the sacred Oaks of Mamre

~o~ At the sacred oak of Mamre, The sunset’s red and gold The glowing ball having burned brightly Takes its break ‘til tomorrow Underneath these consecrated trees I wait For the answers to come to me They had promised they would be here And in the harsh cold, my wishes, still pending The footsteps passing by are countless, And as the orange skies turn dark, Stranger’s eyes give a pitiful glare, They know how long I have been sat here As three men walk towards me I raise red hollow eyes to receive them Their gaze so engaging, Like spears, piercing my heavy heart Pass me not O’ gentle Saviour Hear the weeping of my silent heart For now words have failed me But tears hardly ever, each drop, deafeningly speaking ten One takes my calloused hands, resting it in his “Your time is not now” His glowing eyes do speak "But it comes soon, you are a seed on fertile ground" Once, on my long road to Damascus, I had received a revelation, My life had been given purpose My days to be ...
