The Omnipotence Of GOD

Rev 19:6  And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
 

Believer! what can better support and sustain you amid the trials of your pilgrimage, than the thought that you have an Omnipotent arm to lean upon?

The God with whom you have to do is boundless in His resources!

There is no crossing His designs no thwarting His purposes no questioning His counsels.

His mandate is law! "He speaks and it is done!" 

Your need is great.

From the humblest crumb of providential goodness, up to the richest blessing of Divine grace you are hanging from moment to moment, as a poor pensioner on Jehovah's bounty!

But, fear not! "I am the Almighty God!" Finite necessities can never exhaust My infinite fullness!

My God will supply all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus! 

To You, O blessed Jesus! all power has been committed in Heaven and in earth.

ALL power! He has in His hands the reigns of universal empire!

To "the Lion of the tribe of Judah" has been entrusted the seven-sealed scroll of Providence. 

Whatever is the blessing which the poorest, weakest, loneliest, most afflicted of His saints require-if it is really for their good-the Wonderful Counselor secures it.

As a Prince, He has power with God, and must prevail.

He combines in His adorable Person, all that a sinner requires: a Heart tender enough to love; and a Hand strong enough to save.

The Elder Brother! the "Mighty God!"

How He delights in the exercise of His omnipotence in behalf of His own people-in ruling over their interests, and overruling their trials for their eternal good!

When He prays for Himself, it is "Not My will." 

When He prays for them, it is, "Father, I will!"

I may well take the motto which He still bears on His breastplate before the Throne, as the ground of support and encouragement in all time of tribulation, able to save to the uttermost!

My enemies are many - their name is Legion:
 

Satan, the great adversary; heart traitors- bosom sins; the world, and the world's trinity: the lusts of the flesh, and the lusts of the eye, and the pride of life!
 

But He who is for me, is greater far than all that can be against me.

He is "stronger" than the "strong man."

Christ the Power of God. "I, who speak in righteousness, am mighty to save!"

Believer, are you in trial, beaten down with a great fight of afflictions like the disciples, out in a midnight of storm, buffeting a sea of trouble? 

Fear not! When the tempest has done its work, when the trial has fulfilled its mission the voice which hushed the waters of old, has only to give forth the omnipotent mandate, "Peace, be still!"

And immediately there will be a great calm!

The "all power" of Jesus! what a pillow on which to rest my aching head; disarming all my fears, and inducing thoughts of sweetest comfort, consolation, and joy!

Psa 4:8  I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
