The meaning of power the capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of others or the course of events. To move or travel with great speed or force.

The word is power is in approximately 100 verses in the Bible. 

Have you ever wondered what is the strongest force in the universe? Well the power of this word, forced me to look deeper. And it led me here.  

The strong nuclear force, also called the strong nuclear interaction, is the strongest of the four fundamental forces of nature. It's 6 thousand trillion trillion trillion (that's 39 zeroes after 6!) times stronger than the force of gravity, according to the HyperPhysics website.

Can we even fathom this kind of power? I would find it mind-blowing to even try. If this power is possible?? How can we begin to wrap our heads around the power of GOD?? OMG…His power is in everything we touch, see, and feel. 

His power has split seas, harnessed storms, and holds the vastness of our universe in place. Such majesty. Such authority. Such command. 

I stand in awe in His presence. 

He is all-powerful, all-mighty. And a force that cannot be stopped.  But I have found a tenderness, gentleness, and a LOVE that complements who He truly is.

Even though His power is THE BIGGEST BADDEST force in our universe. There is a sweetness and beauty in His power.

It’s how He controls it. He shows us this POWER under control every day. How does he not lose His patience with all of mankind??  He must be tired of all the fighting, discord, and lack of LOVE we have in our world. 

For generations, we have been guided on how to LIVE and how to LOVE. And like disobedient children, some of us still refuse to listen. He could disintegrate our world with just the wave of His hand. 

To have this much power blows our minds, but what I find even more awe-inspiring is His ability to control and harness this majestic power. I think it’s due to His ability to LOVE us so deeply, His ability to look past the pain we cause Him and see the beauty of His children. 

This does not diminish the greatness He possesses. It shows us a tenderness, It shows us forgiveness, It shows us a POWER of LOVE that is far beyond words. It shows us what is waiting for those who LOVE HIM.   

OMG, I am at a loss for words…

It’s HIM, It’s always HIM  

Seek Him. Find Him. Love Him.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 

2 Corinthians 12:9 

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26 

 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So, they are without excuse. Romans 1:20 

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Matthew 28:18.
