FIRST THINGS FIRST
The Not-So-Mighty Woodpecker
While hiking through a forest, a novice backpacker noticed a woodpecker fervently pecking the trunk of a tree. He took out his binoculars and zoomed in for a close-up view of this marvelous creature at work. Impressive indeed! Due to his complete focus on the woodpecker, he failed to notice a lightning bolt hit the top of the tree, splitting it right down its center. The hiker was filled with amazement as he gazed upon this mighty display of power coming from such a small bird. With excitement and awe, he shouted at the top of his lungs, “Wow, what a beak!”
This story concluded with a ridiculous assumption, so you are probably chuckling right now. Unfortunately, we see this misguided response regularly, regarding the manifestation of power. Throughout mankind’s history, full credit and honor have been given to mere men and women who created inventions sourced by power. Sadly, even in the church, we find accolades directed toward those who minister the anointing, gifts of the Holy Spirit, and the miracle works of God with barely even a mention of the One who is the source of such grace and supernatural might.
God, the Source of Power
All power is sourced in God. Without God, power would not be present. If you cut off the source, you cut off the power. A while back, our electrical power went out in our home. As a result, nothing that functioned by power worked—not the lights, electrical outlets, garbage disposal, oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, fridge, or television. And when the battery charge wore off, even our computers and cell phones failed to function. Anything and everything connected to power failed to perform. The reason? Part of the electrical grid that supplied power for the city had been compromised. As a result of the source being hit, an entire part of the city lost its power. Every home in the affected area lacked power. No traffic lights in the area worked. No power!
Imagine, for a moment, God leaving planet Earth completely, taking His power with Him, and settling in a new galaxy somewhere else. The arrogant say, “We don’t need God. We have our own beliefs—our own ways. We have science. We have technology. Man created the lightbulb, not God. Man created high-powered nuclear weapons, not God.” What arrogance! Psalm 14:1 declares that the fool believes in his heart, “There is no God.” When the source is removed, power is eliminated. It is only by the mercy of God that we have power to enjoy and utilize, as He can withdraw it at any time.
Make no mistake, all power is sourced in God. He is the creator of Power.
