This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
—1 John 5:14
What’s the most powerful piece of technology you own? For a lot of us, the answer is our cell phone. It’s able to make calls while texting, surfing the internet or even browsing Facebook. There’s no secret that our intelligence is becoming more and more advanced every day. But even the strongest devices have their limits.
Conference calling is when several people are part of a single phone call. It’s a wonderful substitute for in-person meetings, especially when large distances separate those involved. There is a limit, however, to how many people can participate. On our cell phones, the number is quite low. Usually about five or six total lines can join in a single call. Any more than that and the device or the network won’t be able to handle the amount of data.
With that in mind, it is almost impossible to imagine the listening and processing power (so to speak) that God has. He has the capacity to hear, to understand and to respond to the prayers of every single person on Earth. Our technology is incredible, yes, but instead of a handful of conversations, He can manage
billions! And in 6,500 different languages! Truly, the power of God is beyond
our wildest imagination.
Today, give praise to our powerful Savior. Know that every prayer you utter is heard and understood by the creator of our galaxy. It is hard to comprehend, but His abilities serve as a reminder of the greatness of the One we serve.
