Consider God’s Power Over Nature. He has power over water (Exodus 14; 17; Joshua 3). He has power over daylight (Joshua 10:12-14). He has power over human hunger (Exodus 16; John 6:1-13). He has power over storms (Mark 4:35-41). God wants us to know that He has power over nature.
Consider God’s Power Over Circumstances. Jesus delivered Lazarus from the grave in John 11. God delivered Jesus from the tomb. God delivered Peter from prison in Acts 12. God wants us to know that He has power over circumstances.
Consider God’s Power Over Hearts. God softened Moses’ heart (Exodus 3-4). God softened Pharaoh’s heart (Exodus 11). God softened Saul of Tarsus’ heart (Acts 9). God wants us to know that He has power to change hearts.
The Lesson of the Hour: God does not change; He is immutable! “For I am the LORD, I do not change” (Malachi 3:6; NKJV). “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8; NKJV). If ever He was able to control nature, alter circumstances and change people, He still is able to do these things.
God is able! He saved three men from a fiery furnace (Daniel 3:17). He saved Daniel from the lion’s mouths (Daniel 6:20-22). He gave a child to a ninety year old woman named Sarah (Romans 4:18-21). He gives His children everything they need (2 Corinthians 9:8). He is able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20-21). He is able to save completely those who come to Him through Jesus (Hebrews 7:25).
A prayer warrior is a person who is convinced that God is omnipotent – that God has the power to do anything, to change anyone and to intervene in any circumstance! A person who truly believes this refuses to doubt God. A person who truly believes this prays without ceasing. Read Ephesians 6:10-20. Put on the whole armor of God. Then pray “always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints” (Ephesians 6:18; NKJV).
