God does not have a "Hey Day" that He looks back on - as if He is now old and not so powerful anymore. That's for you and I. He is just as powerful and awesome today as he was back then. You and I may have a heyday. I used to run 10 km a day 4 days a week some 20 something years ago. I tried jogging a few km recently and came to the breathless and painful realization that the 10 km 4 times a week days were behind me.
So I can tell my 16 year old nephew that in my hey day I would run rings around him on the basketball court. Today any reference to circular objects better be onion rings, pizzas, rotis or tortillas
God doesn't have this problem. He is the same yesterday today and forever.
We should never get used to the phrase "Oh in the bible days when such and such happened" as if God is in retirement. Believe God for big (pronounced "beeeeeg!") things. “I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me? Jeremiah 32:27. We should draw encouragement from the Biblical stories of the spectacular miracles and believe that God CAN deal with our issues.
