The Lord’s Amazing Power
Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars. He was holding a little scroll, which lay open in his hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land. (Revelation 10:1-2)
What an amazing picture of the Lord’s power we see in this Scripture passage! The image of the Lord standing on the sea and standing on the land is a very powerful picture. In the midst of going through difficult times in your life, you might think you don’t have the strength to take the next step; however, God has all the strength to see you all the way through your struggles.
John saw Jesus as the One who is full of light and full of strength. Nothing will stand in His way; nothing will overpower Him. Where there is darkness, He will turn it into light. Jesus will overpower it with His presence. He is brighter than any darkness in your life.
He is stronger than any situation you could ever experience. God wants to make sure that we are aligned with Him and behind Him. When we are aligned with Him, we will make it all the way through to the next part of our journey. This is the kind of God who we need to see. He is everything we need.
We should understand that we are not to look at other people and say, “I just need another person.” No, you don't need another person; you need an encounter with Jesus Christ! If you have already met Him, you need intimacy with Him. That is very critical. He will help you make it all the way through the tunnels in your life. God is boring through the middle of a mountain to get you to the other side.

Amen! Thank you Lord for Your power and might. Thank you that you are faithful and more than able to handle anything that comes our way.
Thank You, Jesus, for being so strong that You can hold me up. I am weak but You are strong 💪. Yet ever so gentle. You are there to help me.
Had to read that last sentence twice, at first I thought it was said, God is boring, as in not so exciting...
Reveals my current condition of struggling...
Reminded though, the Teacher is always silent amidst the test. Doesn't mean He is not working on our behalf, Amen
Be God's Always
Amen..
I Thank You God For EVERYTHING!!!!!
