How can God be all powerful when the world around us says otherwise?

God has spoken plainly, and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you..    

Holy Bible, Psalms 62:11, NLT

There is no power apart from God. Omnipotence has all-power, and to acknowledge any other power is to dishonor God.

Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 228

 

In prayer, as I contemplate God’s power to right wrongs, heal sickness, and eliminate lack, it becomes clearer and clearer to me that God shares power with nothing and no one.

I can see now that God does not lead us into temptation to believe in an evil power.

All power is given unto our Lord,
On Him we place reliance;
With truth from out His sacred word
We bid our foes defiance.
With Him we shall prevail,
Whatever may assail;
He is our shield and tower,
Almighty is His power;
His kingdom is forever.

Christian Science Hymnal, Hymn 411
