Whispers of His Power – MAY 25

Gen. 5.22:  And Enoch walked with God.

Gen. 17.1:  The Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God (El Shaddai);  walk before Me.

Walk with God;  walk before God;  walk in fellowship with God.  It is that ordinary everyday walk which will be attacked.  And yet we need never crash.  We have two glorious words with which to confront the adversary:  But God.

We are all weakness, But God is the strength of my heart (Ps. 73.26).

Before the command was given to Abram he was told that wonderful name of the Lord. I am El Shaddai, the Almighty God, the God who is enough.  He is our eternal strength, and with Him we can walk this day and every day of our lives.

oooOOOooo
