To Him Be the Power Forever

1 Peter 5:11 “To Him be the power forever and ever, Amen.”

Power Indeed!
Lord, only You have the power to:
·         Save sinners
·         Forgive sin
·         Heal broken hearts and relationships
·         Restore broken families
·         Heal the sick
·         Raise from the dead
·         Give both physical and spiritual sight to the blind
·         Bring pure true love into the world
·         Provide for Your saints
·         Give eternal life to mere mortals
·         Hear and answer billions of prayers prayed in every language all over the world 24/7
·         Create something out of nothing just by speaking
·         Bring judgment or blessing using nature
·         Comfort and lift the downtrodden and oppressed
·         Know the future from eternity past
·         Control history
·         Crown and de-throne rulers and authorities
·         To live true holiness in an unholy world
·         Bestow spiritual gifts and natural talents to mankind
·         Give peace in the midst of the storm
·         Lead inventors and innovators into “new” ideas even though there is noting new under the sun
·         Deliver Your saints from the hands and wiles of the enemy
·         Guide us into all truth
·         Give strength for today and hope for tomorrow
·         Create a new heaven and a new earth
·         Rule perfectly for 1000 years
·         Judge rightly every time
·         See the true hearts of men
·         Convict of sin and restore the repentant and contrite heart
And the list goes on and on.  We are indeed a blessed people to have such a good, gracious, merciful, and holy God!  Thank You, Lord!  Thank You, Lord!
