“God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God” (Psalms 62:11).

God Himself is the great source of power. It is His possession. “Power belongeth unto God,” and He manifests it according to His sovereign will. Yet, not in an erratic or arbitrary manner, but according to His declared purpose and promises. True, our oppo-nents and hindrances are many and mighty, but our God, the living God, is almighty.

Further, God’s power is available power. We are supernatural people, born again by a supernatural birth, kept by a supernatural power, sustained on supernatural food, taught by a supernatural Teacher from a supernatural Book. We are led by a super-natural Captain in right paths to assured victories. The risen Saviour, ere He ascended on high, said: “All power is given unto Me. Go ye therefore.”

Again, He said to His disciples: “Ye shall receive power when the Holy Spirit is come upon you.” Not many days after this, in answer to united and continued prayer, the Holy Spirit did come upon them, and they were all filled. Praise God; He remains with us still. The power given is not a gift from the Holy Spirit. He Himself is the power. Today He is as truly available and as mighty in power as He was on the Day of Pentecost. But since the days before Pentecost, has the whole church ever put aside every other work and waited upon God for ten days, that that power might be manifested? We have given too much attention to method and to machinery and to resources, and too little to the source of power.

Armor of Light Steven R. KooistraSatan works to corrupt legitimate desires. What starts as an innocent desire for food becomes gluttony. The need for shelter grows into a drive for comfortable and easy living. Sexual desires become addictive and perverted.

Armor of Light exposes the impact of lust on the created world, on ourselves, and on our relationships with others and with God. More importantly, this Biblical study of lust details the wonderful resources God provides to help us overcome our sin nature and live in the light. Under the protection of God’s armor of light, we walk in the freedom of the Spirit and find victory over the lusts of the flesh.

Disappointments come to everyone. They come in all sizes. Some are temporary and can be fixed. Others are like scary storms that shake us up but eventually pass. And then there are tsunamis.

When a Tsunami Comes was written from the heart of someone struck by a tsunami. Members of the Esh family and several friends were on their way to a wedding when a tractor trailer smashed into their van, snatching the lives of ten occupants and the truck driver. Only two young boys survived.

The journey to healing from any great grief is long, winding, and torturous, but God is faithful and good. With expressive paintings and simple language for young and old, When a Tsunami Comes grieves with the grieving while pointing to the God of all comfort.
