The Source of All Power – A.W. Tozer

For Tuesday May 24, 2022:

THE SOURCE OF ALL POWER

Deuteronomy 3:24 (NKJV)
‘O Lord GOD, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness
and Your mighty hand, for what god is there in heaven or on earth
who can do anything like Your works and Your mighty deeds?’

God is the source of all the power there is. There isn’t any power anywhere that doesn’t have God as its source, whether it be the power of the intellect, of the spirit, of the soul, of dynamite, of the storm or of magnetic attraction. Wherever there is any power at all, God is the author of it. And the source of anything has to be greater than that which flows out of it.

If you pour a quart of milk out of a can, that can has to be equal to or greater than a quart. The can has to be as big as or bigger than that which comes out of it. The can may contain several gallons, though you may pour out only a quart. The source has to be as big or bigger than that which comes out of it. So if all the power there is came from God—all the power—therefore, God’s power must be equal to or greater than all the power there is.
