“Hast thou an arm like God? Or canst thou thunder with a voice like Him?” (Job 40:9).

The King James Version is majestic in its wording of God’s question to Job. In our contemporary language He asks, “Do you have an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like Him?” The arm of the Lord speaks of God’s ability. The voice of thunder speaks of God’s authority. On the day that I am writing the Daily Prescriptions a thunderstorm is moving into Elyria. As I finishing yesterday’s Daily Prescription I heard the thunder, and it made me think of this verse. I stopped and thanked the Lord because right now today I need to be reminded of the Lord’s ability and authority. I bowed before Him and once again shared with Him how much I need to trust Him today. How about you? In what situation of your life do you need to remember the ability and authority of the Lord?

For today: It is a joy to belong to the great and awesome Lord God.
