ALL POWERFUL!

*** Genesis 12:1-2 “The Lord said to Abram, "Leave
your country, your relatives, and your father's family, and go to the land
I will show you. I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you. I will
make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others.”
[New Century Version]
*** Genesis 15:4b-5 “Then the Lord said to him, "…you will have a son of your own to inherit everything I am giving you." Then the Lord brought Abram outside beneath the night sky and told him, "Look up into the heavens and count the stars if you can. Your descendants will be like that—too many to count!" [New Living Translation]
*** Genesis 17:1-2 “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, "I am God Almighty. Obey me and do what is right. I will make an agreement between us, and I will make you the ancestor of many people." [NCV]
*** Genesis 18:13-14 “The Lord asked Abraham,
"Why did Sarah laugh? Does she doubt that she can have a child in her
old age? I am the Lord! There is nothing too difficult for me…!”
[Contemporary English Version]
*** Hebrews 11:11-12 “By faith Abraham, even though he was past age--and Sarah herself was barren--was enabled to become a father because he considered God faithful who had made the promise. And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.” [NIV]
If God is God Almighty…There is Nothing Too Difficult for Him!
*** Numbers 11:21-23 “But Moses said, "Here I am among six hundred thousand men on foot, and you say, 'I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!' Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?" The Lord answered Moses, "Is the Lord's arm too short? You will now see whether or not what I say will come true for you." [NIV]
If God is God Almighty…His Arm Is Not Too Short to Meet Your Needs!
*** Jeremiah 32:17 “Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.” [NIV]
The word ALMIGHTY is used 345 times in the Bible and is never, NEVER used of anyone but God!
*** Luke 1:37 “For nothing is impossible with God." [NIV]
***Luke 18:27 “What is impossible from a human perspective is possible with God." [NIV]
Almighty God Who Laughs at Things Thought Impossible!
• God CAN: Restore Your Dream!
• GOD CAN: Supply Your Needs!
• GOD CAN: Do the Impossible in Your Life!
*** Job 42:2 “I know, Lord, that you are all-powerful;
that you can do everything you want.” [Today’s English Version]
