“… and the weakness of God is stronger than men.” 1 Corinthians 1v25 (KJV)

“… and the weak thing [that springs] from God is stronger than men.” 1 Corinthians 1v25 (AMP)

“… Human strength can’t begin to compete with God’s “weakness.”” 1 Corinthians 1v25 (MSG)

Our God is the Almighty, all-powerful God, He is omnipotent. The weakness of our God is stronger than the strength of man. A king once said – “… Who is the LORD, that I should obey Him and let Israel go? I do not know the LORD and I will not let Israel go?” By the time the King of kings, the Lord of lords, the most High God, had shown His wonders in Egypt, Pharaoh knew the finger of God. Our God is so great, that Lamentations 3v37 (NIV) says “Who can speak and have it happen if the Lord has not decreed it?” Joshua 10v9-11 tells of a time when Israel went to fight saying “After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. The LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, who defeated them in a great victory at Gibeon. Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Heron and cut them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah. As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the LORD hurled large hailstones down on them from the sky, and more of them died from the hailstones than were killed by the swords of the Israelites.” We see here how the LORD helped them fight and even His own direct attack produced more deaths than those killed by the sword. For a person who used to sin, kill, cheat, lie, fornicate e.t.c. to change is so difficult in his own strength, but the Almighty God through His power, through the Lord Jesus Christ, can make such a one, a new creature. Hallelujah!
