Hello Everyone,
Do you understand? Have you ever experience Him as your El Shaddai?

If not He is waiting, with arms wide open for you.

He is the One who delights to help His people.
He is the One who delights to comfort His children.
He is the One who longs to hold and protect His own.

Hear the Words of El Shaddai: Isaiah 49:15-16 NIV
15 "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!
16 See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
As a small child when something frightened you, there was nothing like running into your fathers arms.

And as children of God Almighty (El Shaddai) we can find refuge in His arms.

This truth came home to Abram with his face in the dust before the Almighty.

It must have echoed in his head again and again as he looked into the face of baby Isaac and watched him grow strong.

There where other test that would come for this man of faith, test that would push him to the edge of his endurance.

But from that time on he knew where to run to for strength.
Many centuries later Paul would learn the same truth.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NIV
9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Weakness and difficulty and need and human impossibilities present no problem to El Shaddai.

The Almighty has all the might you could ever need.

Run to Him run right into the throne room and find His arms open wide.

I have been told that some nursing mothers when they would hear their baby cry out that their breast would instantly fill up with milk.

When El Shaddai hears you as His child cry out to Him He fills up with more than enough for your need.

El Shaddai (God Almighty)!
Oh How HE Loves Us!
