THE POWERS OF GOD

The powers of God is basically description of His glory. These powers are not just a collection of what He can do but what make up Gods being. These powers offer an insight on the personality of God. Put in other words, the presence of God in a place means that things that can respond to an aspect of the power of God begin to do so. Some of the powers of God are described in His names.

JEHOVAH JIREH
This name of God means the Lord will provide(Gen 22:8-14.) This means there is a power or glory associated with God whose purpose is provision. It is the annointing of provision. It is Gods personification as provision. This power may work by either facilitating the capacity to have our desires met, or by supernaturally creating them, as was with the feeding of thousands by Christ.

JEHOVAH SHAMMAH
This means the Lord is present(Eze 48:35).This is the power of God to be present with His children, and it is written, even hell cannot separate us from the presence of God. From when we receive Him, He becomes present with us, and this is an annointing present with all His men.

JEHOVER EL-SHADAI.
This means the all sufficient God(Gen 17:1).
This is the power that makes us content even in the most tempestuous of storm. It is by this power that His children feel satisfied so long as He is with them. Concerning this the Lord says "do not be anxious about tomorrow."

JEHOVAH ROHI
This means "the lord is my shepered." (Psalms 23:1).
It is the power of God to sustain in faith all that are His sheep. This is the power that keeps His children from deception, and as a shephered that leads to pastures, this power of God is resident in us to reveal God to our hearts. This is our daily bread.
