Our God is mighty. He is powerful. There is nothing that our God cannot do. I’m reminded of the words of Martin Luther from the great hymn of our faith:
A mighty Fortress is our God,
A Bulwark never failing;
Our Helper He amid the flood
Of mortal ills prevailing:
For still our ancient foe
Doth seek to work us woe;
His craft and power are great,
And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
Did we in our own strength confide,
Our striving would be losing;
Were not the right Man on our side,
The Man of God’s own choosing:
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is He;
Lord Sabaoth His Name,
From age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
When we take an honest look at the world around us, it becomes clear how weak we truly are. Our enemy Satan is going about seeking whom he may devour, the world and its lusts seek to entangle us in its grip, and our own fleshly desires draw us away from pursuing our Heavenly Father. But we actually have nothing to fear: for we have “the right man on our side”! In ourselves, we can do nothing, but with God all things are possible.
