Who Is He?
God Is Omnipotent
➢ What Does This Mean?
• God is all-powerful. God is able to do anything that is in accord with His will and nature.
➢ Where Do We See This in Scripture?
• Nothing is “impossible with God” (Luke 1:37).
• “With God all things are possible” (Matt. 19:26).
• God describes Himself as “the Almighty One” (Gen. 17:1; Is. 1:24; II Cor. 6:18; Rev. 1:8; 19:6).
• “Ah, Lord God! It is you who have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you” (Jer. 32:17).
• The gospel is the “power of God” for salvation (Rom. 1:16), which includes the power of God seen in Christ’s resurrection from the dead (II Cor. 13:4).
• God’s power can also be seen as He unfolds His plan for our lives (Eph. 1:11; Rom. 8:29-30).
➢ What Does This Mean for Me?
 In the face of difficulties, we must remember that we have Christ’s strength which enables us to “do all things” (Phil. 4:13).
 No prayer request is too big for God (Phil. 4:6). Yet we must learn to pray in such a way that desires His will (not ours!) to be accomplished. Great comfort comes from knowing our requests are in the hands of an Almighty God. Great peace comes from knowing He will accomplish His will.
 As we look at the world around us, and as we examine our own lives, we need to have a heart of praise and thanksgiving at how God has displayed His power in so many awesome ways!
