Isaiah 14:26-27


Isaiah 14:26-27 "I have a plan for the whole earth, for my mighty power reaches throughout the world. The Lord Almighty has spoken - who can change his plans? When his hand moves, who can stop him?"

Our faith in a limitless God, knows no bounds itself. When we truly seek to submit to His will, His plan for our lives; NOTHING can stand in the way.
The Bible says, Take heart, I have overcome the "world." In these verses He declares a plan for the whole "planet," that his power streches across the entire "world." We're told nothing can seperate us from His love, death can't and life can't, angels can't and demons can't, our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. It goes on to say no matter where we are at (in this entire world) nothing in "all creation" can seperate us from all that God has made available to us through Jesus.
And with all these promises, and so many more, we still lose focus of this assurance at times.
The Bible says he knows the number of hairs on our heads. If we are that precious to Him, that in all that He has created even our tiny little hairs are noticed; how could we ever doubt his control over things. Who else would we rather have in control?
Let us stand on the truth, even when we don't understand and it seems to hurt too bad, that God's is in control. Heartwrenching circumstances play out every minute of every day in lands foreign to us, and even here around us, and as hard as it is for us to comprehend; God is in control. There isn't a place in existence that His mighty power doesn't reach.
Let us not just seek to glorify Him in our immediate surroundings, but let us pray for those glorifying his name across this world. That we may see his hand everywhere we look, a bold prayer yes, but a prayer to see more and more of this same limitless and unstoppable power that dwells inside those of us that call him Lord sweeping across all of creation!
Why would any of us want to change his plans? Why would any of us want to try to stop him?
Lord, make us all you created us to be. Plant our feet firmly on the paths you have laid out for each and every one of us. Use us for the carrying out of your will here as it is in heaven. Open our hearts up to joyfully placing all our trust in your plans. Plans that are for so much more than us, but yet we are blessed to be in on.
Takes this day and make much of you!
The Lord Almighty has spoken. The Lord Almighty Speaks. The Lord Almighty will always speak! And nothing can EVER silence Him.
Figuratively speaking may we be all ears!
