POWER IN HIS WORD

Pray through Psalm 63:2.

Let's take a glimpse at the astounding power of God's Word, a power that magnificently creates, transforms, and reigns - a power that distinguishes Him as the one true God.

Read Genesis 1:1-25. Observe and ponder the beautiful and awesome power of God speaking forth His Word.

The power of the Lord is infinite and boundless. The Bible begins by saying that God spoke the heavens and the earth into being. That is power beyond anything we can fully understand! Meditate on the power and might of the Lord, especially the power of His Word. God is worth knowing and trusting and worthy of all of our praise, worship, and devotion.

Read Philippians 3:7-11. When you consider everything as loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ as Lord, you can be sure that it is God at work in your life. As you seek after Him more and more, He will reveal Himself and His power and His glory to you. You will see His character, His love, and His power lived out through you, but you will know it is Christ and not you!

The purpose of this study is not merely to increase your knowledge, although I do hope it will. And it is not designed to make you a better person. It is meant to help you develop an intimate, one-on-one relationship with our great Creator God, a one-on-one agape love affair with Jesus Christ - through His Word. Many don't consider this type of intimacy - a relationship that meets their deepest needs and turns things right-side up that have seemed so totally upside down - even possible.

Ask Him to use this devotion in your life in a life-transforming way. He will do it. It is only by His grace that we can do anything.

Read Psalm 40:1-3 and make it your prayer. May everyone around you know that something wonderful, something 'out of this world,' has happened to cause you to never be the same again. May you, and they, see His power and His glory!

Like yesterday, choose one scripture from today that the Lord is using to renew your mind and transform your heart. Take this truth to heart and bring it to life throughout your day.
