Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. The Powers of God. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord, which is and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation 1:8. In these days of rampant humanism, blatant materialism, and uffet religionism, the very concept of an all-powerful God who created, controls, and judges all things seems anachronistic, but God is still there and is still the Almighty.
Three Greek words are translated power in Scripture: exusia, authority, dunimus, ability, and kratos, strength. Each is attributed in an unlimited extent to God the Creator as incarnate and Christ the Redeemer. All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Matthew 28, 18. For thine is the kingdom and the power, ability, and the glory forever.
Matthew 6:13. that they may know the exceeding greatness of his power, ability, to usward who believe according to the working of his mighty power, strength, which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power, authority, and might and dominion. Ephesians 1, 18-21. He is the almighty God of Abraham, the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth. Our God is in the heavens.
He hath done whatsoever he hath pleased. God can do whatever he pleases, except anything contrary to his nature. He cannot lie, for he is the truth. His inspired word is an errant, the scripture of truth. We can be certain that he did not create the world by evolution, for that would be contradicted both by his infallible word and by his omnipotence.
Being all-powerful, God would surely not create by such a cruel, inefficient process as evolution. If you've enjoyed today's devotional, be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts.
