Our Mighty God

Our Mighty God

Not only is He our counselor, He is the mighty God! The

same God that led Moses and the children of Israel out of Egypt

by parting the waters of the mighty Red Sea is still on the throne

today. Hebrews 13:8 says, Jesus Christ the same yesterday,

and to day, and for ever. He still saves today, heals today, and

delivers today! When Jesus paid the price on Calvary for our sins,

He declared, ...It is finished... (John 19:30). He finished His

mission; it was completed. His death purchased salvation, healing

and victory for all. John 19:17-18 says, And he bearing his cross

went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is

called in the Hebrew Golgotha (Calvary): Where they crucified

him, and two other with him, on either side one, and

Jesus in the midst. 

He took the penalty for the sins of not only

those standing at the foot of the cross, but also for the sins of all

people in all ages. Isaiah 53:4-6 states: Surely he hath borne

our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him

stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded

for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the

chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes

we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have

turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on

him the iniquity of us all. He took our sorrows so we need not

be stricken with them. He made a way for us to have peace in our

souls. He took stripes on His back so that we do not have to

suffer with sickness. He took our hell so we do not have to take it.

If we only realized the mighty work He did on the cross! Truly he

is a mighty God! He has already done so much for us and continues

to show Himself strong on behalf of all who trust Him. If we

are living beneath our privileges as Christians, it is not the Lord’s

fault. He has made provision for us, but we must receive it and

walk in it.

A great many of our problems exist because we do not

have faith in God. Either we do not trust Him, or we limit Him.

The Lord gave my husband Bud the name for this ministry one

day while we were in prayer. CHRIST UNLIMITED really expresses

the nature of our God! We are not to limit Him. He is a

big God! He is more than able. He can do anything! We should

not limit Him to our preconceived ideas. Can He only do certain

kinds of miracles, while unable to do others? No, our God is unlimited.

He not only did miracles, He can do them today.

Although Jesus is not walking our streets today, He has returned

in the person of the Holy Spirit, and is still able to perform

the same miracles He did when He walked this earth in the flesh.

He has not changed; man is the one who has limited Him. The

Israelites were guilty of limiting God while they were in the wilderness,

and we know the things they suffered because of it. (Psalm

78:41, Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited

the Holy One of Israel.)

If God speaks something to your heart and it seems bigger

than your mind can conceive, remember, we have a Mighty God!

Nothing is too big, neither is anything too small for Him. If your

big toe is hurting, He is interested. Now, I know someone will

say, “I would not bother God with my big toe.” However, God is

big enough that it does not “bother” Him when we share our small

problems with Him. After all, He took time to number the hairs of

our head, and He takes note when even a sparrow falls to the

ground. (Matthew 10:29-30: Art not two sparrows sold for a

farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground with31

out your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.)

Our God is a Mighty God who encompasses the small

and the large, for in Him things are sizeless. He is an infinite God.

He is omnipresent (present in all places at the same time), omniscient

(He knows all things), and omnipotent (He has unlimited

power and authority). What a mighty God!!
