All power in heaven and on earth belongs to God. There is nothing that exists outside of his will. He displayed this power in the work of creation and throughout the course of history, he has continued to display his absolute power and control over the created world in various ways.
Our God both displays and restrains his power as he dispenses his rule over the universe. No one else is able to do what he does. In a very remarkable way, he displayed this power over sin and the devil through the life and death of his son our Lord the Christ.
This power has been made available to us as believers. The power to be the bearers of God's power and participate in the dispensation of it upon the face of the earth. We do not often see the evidence of this in our lives because we're looking at the wrong places; inward at our deficiencies instead of outward at what God has done for us and in us. We ought not to think of ourselves but upon the Lord and what he has done and is able to accomplish through us. Our pastor will help walk us through what it means to be a powerful believer in this series.
