Power is an inherent characteristic of God {Roman 1:20}. It is the result of His nature. God’s kind of power isseen in his creation { Psalm 19: 150: 1: } {Jeremiah {!0: 12} His inexplicable power is the only explanation for the virgin birth of Jesus { Luke 1: 35 }. Power is always a derived characteristic of people, who receive power from God. { Deuteronomy 8: 18; Isaiah 40: 29: Micah 3: 8; Matthew 22: 29; 1 Corinthians 2: 4; Ephesians 3: 7 }, from political position { Esther 1: 3; Luke 20: 20}, from armies { 1 Chronicle 20: 1 } and from other structures that provide advantage over others. When humans perceive that their power is intrinsic to themselves, they are self-deceived {Levictious 26: 19; Deuteronomy 8: 17-18; Hosea 2: 7-9; John 19: 10-11}. Jesus as God-Man demonstrated both intrinsic and derived aspects of power. He proclaimed his power as derived from the Father.{ John 5: 27; 17:2 ; 5: 16-23.
Thank God for HIS power and deluverance
