Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. It’s cold and quiet on this new day of a new week, and all is well with my family, this farm, The Well, and the world around me because El-Shaddai (God Almighty) protects it ALL. It’s no small thing to call out to El-Shaddai for help, and it’s no small thing when He Answers. As I sat in His Presence this morning, I was overwhelmed by His Might. I feel His Love and Protection every hour of every day, and I’m forever grateful for Him, BUT when I pause to consider His Might, it’s an indescribable feeling. When I pause to consider the Power of the Living God, it doesn’t make me feel small in comparison to Him…instead, it reminds me of just how much Power is at my fingertips ALL because of El-Shaddai. Isn’t that the way you look at yourJourney of Faith, too?

It can be so easy for people of faith to lose sight of the Power of a Mighty God because they tend to take matters into their own hands more than they place matters into His. But our Power doesn’t come by our own actions, and no matter how resourceful we think we are, we’re never the ones to “fix” whatever it is that’s wrong. It’s always the amazing El-Shaddai at work, even for the most “trivial” things. There are plenty of horrific things going on all around the world these days, and it would be easy to get caught up in them, but El-Shaddai sees it all…cares about it all…is with us through it all…and He’s got it all in the palm of His Hand. There’s a tremendous sense of Peace and Power that comes just by knowing that El-Shaddai is ALWAYS there and ALWAYS listening. The best part is that He doesn’t need social media to speak to His people, and nobody can twist His arm or thwart His Plans. There is Power in His Name.

The Bible says, “You believe that there is one God? Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder.” Even the evilest of evil shudder at the mention of His Name, and yet we hear His name mentioned more in vain than we do in Praise these days. Believing He exists is one thing – Living as if you Believe is an entirely different story. When you Believe, you understand the Power that is within you. When you Believe you call upon His Name for everything. When you Believe you fearlessly mention His name, and you’re excited to share Who He is with the world. When you Believe it’s easy NOT to become overwhelmed…even over the simplest of things…because you see His Hand in everything and it’s overwhelming to know that El-Shaddai…the God of all…the Prince of Peace…the Great “I am”… is there with you through it all. When you Believe the tears flow freely at the mere thought that El-Shaddai will never leave you nor forsake you. When you Believe you KNOW there is Power within you, and that all you ever need to do is tap into it. There is Power in His Name.

I spent Quality Time with the Most High God this morning, and I gave thanks for His Power and Might. The more I considered how “big” He is, the Stronger I began to feel. ALL things are possible through Him and I know He doesn’t grow tired of me asking for the “impossible” and Believing those things will come to pass…all because of El-Shaddai – my Mighty God…the omnipresent and omnipotent God of my Life that sees it all…cares about it all…is with me through it all…and Who has it ALL in the palm of His Hand.

How about you?
