Power
Power in the Finger
You use your fingers
every day
Your finger has a
lot of power to control gadgets and communicate messages
The finger of God is
also powerful to create and control the heavens
To communicate His
covenant and destroy the evils of darkness
What finger do you
use most to operate gadgets?
What if you offer
your finger as an extension of the finger of God
To a lost world who
cannot see the finger of God?
Power in the Finger
Rewind to the 1960’s and you will find an
animated television series called “The Jetsons”.
A fictional family in the 21st century.
Husband and father of two is the
fictional character named George Jetson.
This space age series showed us many of
the modern technical advances we have today.
George Jetson had one responsibility at work
and it was to press a button with his finger.
In one episode George is complaining to his wife,
Jane about how hard his finger worked.
Amazing what we can do today with one finger.
With the finger we have the power to type and text…
To communicate around the world.
The finger is powerful.
Unfortunately, some use a finger to show
their greatest anger, hatred and frustration.
If our fingers are so powerful how
powerful are the fingers of God?
Did you know God created
the heavens with His fingers?
When I consider your
heavens, the work of your fingers
Psalm 8:3
Did you know God wrote the covenant
of the law with His finger in stone?
When the LORD finished
speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the Testimony,
the tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
Exodus 31:18
Did you know Jesus took His finger to write
in the sand and it saved a woman’s life?
But Jesus bent down
and started to write on the ground with his finger.
7 When they kept on
questioning him, he straightened up and said to them,
"If any one of
you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
John 8:6-8
Did you know that the plagues on Pharaoh and Egypt
at the time of Moses came by the finger of God?
The magicians said to
Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God."
But Pharaoh's heart was hard
and he would not listen, just as the LORD had said.
Exodus 8:19
Did you know Jesus controls demons with His finger
and by His finger His Kingdom of God comes to us?
But if I drive out
demons by the finger of God,
then the kingdom of
God has come to you.
Luke 11:20
Don’t underestimate the power of our God.
He is able to lift all your burdens with one finger.
He is able to write His story
of love for you on your heart.
He is able to cast out your
demons with the flick of His finger.
What finger do you use most to operate gadgets?
What if you offer your finger as an
extension of the finger of God to a lost
world who cannot see the finger of God?
Scripture Reading
Luke 11:17-23 NIV
17 Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: "Any
kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against
itself will fall. 18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom
stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebub. 19
Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them
out? So then, they will be your judges. 20 But if I drive out demons by the
finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.
21 "When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own
house, his possessions are safe. 22 But when someone stronger attacks and
overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up
the spoils.
23 "He who is not with me is against me, and he who
does not gather with me, scatters.
