Quick Thought:  How Powerful Is Christ?

It rained in my city all last night and all this morning.  The lingering vestige of what was a hurricane when it hit land on the Gulf Coast a few days ago.  Drenched.

But as is always the case, eventually, around noon today, the Sun shone down its powerful beams on the ground and guess what, yep, in just an hour or two it was totally dry.

That’s the power of the Sun.

Now multiply that by INFINITY and you’ll have the answer to this post’s title.

You see, not only did Jesus Christ perform actual and literal miracles and demonstrate Deity-derived dominance over nature and life itself (instantly calming a storm and raising Lazarus from the dead, just to name two of many), not only did He prove that He had power over the natural realm, but even greater than that is the fact that He has power over the spiritual realm!  He not only can raise people from the dead, He can save their souls forever (Hebrews 7:25).  I’m living proof.  He saw and felt compassion for and personally pursued the biggest sinner I know, the biggest sinner I’ve ever known, and the biggest sinner you’ve probably ever known – ME! – and instantly transformed him from a spiritually dead and depraved and dirty-as-filthy-rags do-no-gooder into “the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).  Just think about that for ten seconds (or hours).  He is able and willing and ready to turn total sinners into the very RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD HIMSELF and give them eternal life in His presence in heaven decked out with its streets of gold and crystal-like sea, to dwell and reside and live with Him and all other believers forever and ever and ever.

That’s the power of the Son.

I pray that you come to know Him if you haven’t already.  Through this website and historic undertaking and outflowing ministries would be the biggest thrill and honor and privilege of my life here on earth but that’s very, very secondary – at the end of the day, I’ll be thrilled with whomever  God might use to accomplish that, i.e., that blessed result  is what’s paramount, the vessel  God may choose to use will merely be a cherry on that simply-so-sweet spiritual sundae.
