has it ever hit home to you what it means to say, "my God, who loves me and gave himself for me, is almighty"? it means that if you take your place under the shadow of the ALMIGHTY you are protected by omnipotence. there is infinite and unending security in the almightiness of God.
the omnipotence of God means eternal, unshakable refuge in the everlasting glory of God no matter what happens on this earth. and that confidence is the power of radical obedience to the call of God. is there anything more freeing, more thrilling, or more strengthening than the truth that GOD ALMIGHTY is your refuge—all day every day in all the ordinary and extraordinary experiences of life! nothing but what he ordains for your good befalls you. and afterward he will receive you to glory!- john piper (my name is God Almighty)
