Scripture for the week of June 7, 2015
Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You. —the Great, the Mighty God, whose name is the Lord of hosts. Jeremiah 31:17,18b (NKJV)Have you ever gazed upon the innumerable stars in the night sky in awe of the power and majesty of God Almighty? It is really easy to then feel so small and insignificant and to doubt that God would care about us and our problems. Mighty God in this verse means Warrior, a Champion and Hero. God who made all of creation, Warrior Lord of all the angelic armies of heaven, is also our Champion and Hero! Are you battle weary of circumstances beyond your control or blind sighted by attacks you least expected? No matter what you are facing, be encouraged and trust that the great and powerful arm of Mighty God (El-Gibbor), your Champion, your Hero, is outstretched to you and nothing is too hard for Him to protect, defend and provide for you!
