Good early morning again. Philippians chapter 4 verse 13. I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me. A very short verse indeed. So this being true, let's look at Christ's power. We see there are about seven scriptures that can be used to show the power of Christ. Number one he has saving power Isaiah 63:1 who is this that Cometh From Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, traveling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. He has pardoning power Matthew 9 verse 6. But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on Earth to forgive sins, then said he to the sick of palsy, arise take up thy bed and go unto thine house. He has infinite power Matthew 28:18 and Jesus came and speaking to them saying all power is given unto me in heaven and in Earth. He has the power over nature Luke 8:25 and he said unto them where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, what manner of man is this! For he commanded even the wind's and water, and they obey him. He has the power over his own life, look at John chapter 10 verse 18. No man taketh it from me but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. He has life-giving power John 17:2. As thou Hast given him Power Over All Flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou has given him. He has a wonder-working power acts 10:38. How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed all the devil; for God was with him. He also has demonstrated his power by his resurrection. Romans 1:4 and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. You can reference that with Hebrews 1:3. Those we're all good reasons we need to remember what powerful a God we serve. You see we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. And you can't be living in sin practicing it as a habit. And you also cannot be living in sin and refusing to repent. God will hesitate to help us and he could bring us down. Later this morning is church service. When you go don't put your eyes on people any more than you have to. Go remembering what kind of powerful Lord we have and that he can take our issues as long as we're not praying amiss, he can fix them. This is the same Lord that has the power to save the power to pardon the infinite power and the power over nature and the power over his own life the power to give life a Wonder working power demonstrated by his resurrection. So when you pray remember this. Claim the Lord, his Mercy and this power in your life. When you're praying for people you know that are not believers, people who are running from the obedience that Christ requires, people with financial issues and health issues. Pray to this powerful Lord named Jesus Christ. If you feel your prayers are bouncing off the ceiling, either you need to repent of something, or just don't give up till he gives you a blessing. God bless get up and go to Sunday school and then church. And then go back again tomorrow night.
Amen.
