- The biblical description of power relates primarily to God and people. Power is an inherent characteristic of God (Rom 1:20). It is the result of his nature. God's kind of power is seen in his creation (Psalm 19 ; 150:1 ; Jer 10:12). His inexplicable power is the only explanation for the virgin birth of Jesus (Luke 1:35).

When one says God is omnipotent(omni-all, potent—power) they are proclaiming that He not only has ultimate power over all things but He is also the source of all power. Though He sets limits on all of creation, He Himself is limitless in strength, wisdom, love, holiness, and the ability to perform His sovereign will. He is the initiator of all that...
When storms hit and the ground beneath us feels ready to give way, we can rest in peace, knowing God Almighty, the omnipotent One, stands beside us. Zephaniah 3:17 says, “The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save us,” and in Psalm 27:1, David, Israel’s second king prayed, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fea...

When we learn of school shootings, of child kidnappings, of abuse and wars and the threat of war, it may feel as if evil is winning. But it isn’t, it can’t, and it won’t. In fact, it’s already been conquered by our omnipotent, sovereign, all-knowing, and all-loving God. Pri...
Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus routinely demonstrated His power over the human body and any ailment we might suffer. In Matthew 8, He healed a man with leprosy, which was, at that time, an incurable disease. In that same chapter, He healed a disciple’s mother-in-law who’d been in bed with a fever. He cast out demons (Matthew 8:16), enabled ...

The ability to act or produce an effect; the possession of authority over others. These two aspects of power are often related in Scripture. Because God has revealed His power in the act of creation, He has authority to assign dominion to whomever He wills (Jeremiah 10:12; Jeremiah 27:5).
1105 God, power of. God is all-powerful (that is omnipotent), and is able to do whatever he wills. His power is limited only by his character. God is all-powerful. Mk 10:27 pp Mt 19:26 See also Ge 18:14; Ps 93:1; Mk 14:36; Lk 1:37; 2Co 4:7. God cannot be thwarted.
Indirectly the omnipotence of God is implied in the effect ascribed to faith (Matthew 17:20 "Nothing shall be impossible unto you"; Mark 9:23 "All things are possible to him that believeth"), because faith puts the divine power at the disposal of the believer.
