Alma 5:50


Yea, thus saith the Spirit: Repent, all ye ends of the earth, for the kingdom of heaven is soon at hand; yea, the Son of God cometh in his glory, in his might, majesty, power, and dominion. Yea, my beloved brethren, I say unto you, that the Spirit saith: Behold the glory of the King of all the earth; and also the King of heaven shall very soon shine forth among all the children of men.

Christ has power and might.  His glory demonstrates his power, and because of his power, he has dominion, which is the power to rule and control the earth and all of its inhabitants. We will be witnesses of his power when he comes again. He will have the power to cleanse the earth and set all things right.  He will have the power to banish Satan from among us.
 
Though he has all power, we know be will never use it unrighteously or force people to act against their wills. He may remove their opportunity to act contrary to his will, but he will never force them to do his will. We can trust Christ to always use his power correctly. The more we trust him and become like him, the more of his power he will share with us.
