Embracing the Omnipotence of God: Power for Transformation at Spirit and Truth Church

At Spirit and Truth Church in Fort Collins, Colorado, we believe worshiping God “in spirit and truth” (John 4:23) means anchoring our lives in both the dynamic presence of the Holy Spirit and the unchanging revelation of Scripture. Central to this balance is understanding the attributes of God, particularly His omnipotence—the truth that our Creator holds infinite power over all creation, history, and our daily lives.

What Does It Mean That God Is Omnipotent?

The term omnipotence comes from the Latin omni (all) and potentia (power), declaring that God’s power is limitless, purposeful, and sovereign. Scripture affirms this repeatedly:

  • He creates and sustains all things: “By the word of the Lord the heavens were made” (Psalm 33:6).

  • He fulfills His promises: “No word from God will ever fail” (Luke 1:37).

  • He reigns over every circumstance: “Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him” (Psalm 115:3).

This divine power isn’t abstract—it’s personal. At Spirit and Truth, we see God’s omnipotence as the foundation for hope, transformation, and mission.

How God’s Omnipotence Shapes Our Church

1. Empowers Bold Worship and Ministry

We believe the Holy Spirit’s power isn’t confined to the past. Through His “baptism of boldness” (Acts 4:31), God equips believers with spiritual gifts to proclaim the Gospel, heal the broken, and confront darkness. Our Sunday Gatherings and midweek House Churches are marked by:

  • Supernatural encounters: Praying for miracles and expecting God to move.

  • Biblical preaching: Grounding every experience in the truth of Scripture.

  • Joyful obedience: Trusting that “He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it” (1 Thessalonians 5:24).

2. Anchors Us in Times of Struggle

God’s omnipotence doesn’t erase suffering but assures us that no trial is beyond His authority. Whether facing personal sin, illness, or cultural chaos, we find comfort in:

  • His victory over sin: “The Spirit gives life” (Romans 8:11).

  • His eternal plan: “All things work together for good” (Romans 8:28).

  • His presence: “I am with you always” (Matthew 28:20).

3. Fuels Our Mission in Fort Collins

A powerless gospel changes nothing. But at Spirit and Truth, we declare a God who raises the dead (1 Corinthians 6:14) and empowers us to:

  • Make disciples: Boldly mentoring others in faith.

  • Serve our city: Addressing physical and spiritual needs.

  • Plant churches: Expanding God’s Kingdom across Northern Colorado.

Living in the Reality of an All-Powerful God

Understanding God’s omnipotence isn’t just theological—it’s practical. Here’s how we respond:

  • Worship wholeheartedly: Celebrating His power in song, prayer, and generosity (2 Corinthians 9:7).

  • Pray expectantly: Asking boldly, knowing “He is able to do immeasurably more than we ask” (Ephesians 3:20).

  • Walk humbly: Relying on His strength, not our own (2 Corinthians 12:9).
