My Powerful God (The Omnipotent God)

This blog is going to be short, sharp and simple. Our focus today would be on the “Authority” of God within this entire universe. First of all, God created everything in this earth and within this entire universe. Genesis 1:1 reads, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Every living thing or entity within the heavens and the earth were created by God! Furthermore, this God is Love in 1 John 4:8-His Character and Principality: His governance of this entire universe (His Creation) is based on His Principality of Love! Our Key text for this blog is found in Mathew 28:18. Well let’s dig into it…

Mathew 28:18 reads, ‘And Jesus came and spoke unto them saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.”’ In other translations of The Holy Bible, the word ‘power’ is interchangeably used with the term ‘authority’ within verse 18 of Mathew 28. According to Oxford Advance Learners Dictionary page 86, authority is; 1) the power to give orders to people, 2) the power or right to do something. The term power within Oxford Advance Learner’s Dictionary page 1,187 is; the ability to control people or things. Here we see how Jesus Christ made it very clearly to His disciples that He has all authority (power) in heaven and on earth! Or in other words simply speaking, Jesus Christ has the authority (power) over everything in heaven (all the two-third of the unknown population of the unfallen angels in heaven, the unfallen worlds in the heavens, the stars, the moon, Mars, Jupiter, etc…) and everything here on earth (every human being that ever lived in this earth and are still living, every creature or animals in this earth, satan and the one-third of the unknown total population of the angels in heaven that were cast out with him to this earth, the winds, the clouds, the land, the soil, the rocks, the sea, etc…)!

Want some examples? Well let’s see some literal-physical-examples of Jesus Christ within The Holy Bible. Mark 4:39 reads, ‘Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great clam.’ Here we see how with His Authority (power), the winds and the waves of this earth obeyed Him and ceased. Read the entire story… Mark 5:6 reads, “When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him.” How incredible is that? The man who was possessed by not one, two, or three, but legions of demons, the first thing that he did when he saw Jesus from afar is “ran and worshiped”! The demons within that person (possessing that person) actually ran and worship Jesus! This was their first response when they saw Jesus. Read the entire story in Mark 5:1-20 to confirm… Jesus in-fact did away with the law of physics when he resurrected Lazaruz from the dead. This clearly shows Jesus Christ’s authority over death (and that He is the resurrection and the life). Read the entire story in Mark 11:1-44, etc…

When did Jesus had the authority over the heavens and the earth? Simple, ever since the creation of the heavens and the earth in the beginning. Or in other words, He is the rightful owner and Creator! John 1:1-4 reads, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men.” Firstly, Jesus Christ is the Word! According to verse one, God, was present in the beginning-our Trinity God: God The Father, God The Son Jesus Christ, and God The Holy Spirit: our focus is on the Word Jesus Christ. Therefore, in verse two we clearly see that Jesus Christ (the Word) was in the beginning with God. Verse three is my favorite. In verse three we see how everything that was made in Genesis 1:1 (the entire creation) were made through Jesus Christ (the Word), everything, macroview from planets, sea and land to microview, creatures, insects, vegetation: in the heavens and in earth. Verse four confirms how He “is” the source of life to this entire universe! This “IS” His rightful authority back then up until now and will always be, since He is the Creator of this entire universe.

This is the God that I’m worshiping! He is the Creator of the entire universe! Who is any demonic magician, witchcraft, Satanist or some evil satanic spirit compared to the power of my God? Even though He, my God, Jesus Christ, the Word, is already victorious within this Great Controversy considering Mathew 27:24-54, He will never force you and I to accept Him and follow Him truthfully in heart every day, simply because He is Love in 1 John 4:8 (that is why the power of choice exist)! The power of choice is yours to accept Jesus or Reject Jesus Christ every time he knocks at the one-handle door of your heart that can only be opened from the inside-every choice has a consequence: the eternal life in John 3:16 or the wages of sin which is death in Romans 6:23 depends entirely on your personal choice!
