Amazing Power

The Lord looks down from heaven and sees the whole human race. From his throne he observes all who live on the earth. He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do. The best-equipped army cannot save a king, nor is great strength enough to save a warrior. Don't count on your warhorse to give you victory - for all it's strength, it cannot save you. Psalm 33:13-17

Sometimes it seems as if the forces of evil ar winning and godless rulers and superpowers are dominating our world. But these verses remind us of who is really in charge and calling the shots: the Lord Almighty. The same God who created the world with a word can shatter the plans of the nations and cancel all of their schemes. No matter how out of control things may appear, God's plan remains in place. He is running the show and knows the end from the beginning. No one is higher or mightier than the Lord!

There are situations that occur every day that I know we all struggle with why, from the placement of leaders we don't believe in, the starvation of millions, and even the death of a very talented woman, but I know that our Lord is in charge. He has a plan for you and for me, and for everyone. The hard part for me is letting go and letting God take control!

Let's pray

Thank you, Lord, for the assurance your Word gives me that you reign over heaven and earth and that no one can cancel your plans for my life - and for the whole world. I put my trust in you today. Only you understand everything - even those things that are mysteries to me. Because you have authority on earth and in hearve, I can rest in you. In Jesus' name amen.
