Tues Devo: Recognize the power?

Exodus 19: 10- “the Lord said to Moses, ‘Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments and be ready for the third day. For on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. And you shall set limits for the people all around, saying ‘Take care not to go up into the mountain or touch the edge of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall be put to death. No hand shall touch him, but he shall be stoned or shat; whether beast or man, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.’” (NASB)

Hello,

Most of the time when we encounter something that is powerful, we have the chance to have one of our senses detect that power. Whether it is audible as a muscle car engine, visible as watching someone lift a heavy object, or even a powerful odor we can smell from a skunk – we recognize power quickly – and are ready to respond if needed due to that power. Sometimes we change course, sometimes we go into survival mode or sometimes we applaud – just depends on the scenario.

God is powerful. Do you recognize it? If so, how are you responding to His power? All too often we don’t respond to life with His power in mind. We need to remember how great He is – and let that drive our submission to His will and our faith in His plan.

Have a blessed day,
