God's incomparably great power

God's incomparably great power

When the New Testament writers speak of God's love they point to the cross. When they speak of God's power they point to the resurrection. God's 'incomparably great power' was 'exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead' (Ephesians 1:19–20). The risen Jesus says to his disciples, 'All authority (all power to rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to me' (Matthew 28:18, AMP). The resurrection means that the risen Jesus is present with you now. Jesus continues, 'I am with you always' (v.20). The result of the resurrection is not only his power and his presence but also his provision.
