;Reward Power: Reward Power depends upon the ability of the power wielder to confer valued material rewards, it refers to the degree to which the individual can give others a reward of some kind such as benefits, time off, desired gifts, promotions or increases in pay or responsibility.  This power is obvious but also ineffective if abused.  People who abuses reward power can become pushy or became reprimanded for being too forthcoming or 'moving things too quickly'.

;Coercive Power: Coercive Power means the application of negative influences onto employees. It might refer to the ability to demote or to withhold other rewards. It's the desire for valued rewards or the fear of having them withheld that ensures the obedience of those under power.  Coercive Power tends to be the most obvious but least effective form of power as it builds resentment and resistance within the targets of Coercive Power.

The divine omnipotence is perfectly co-ordinated with the other attributes of the personality of God. The power of God is, ordinarily, only limited in its universe spiritual manifestation by three conditions or situations:
 +
 
 +
*1. By the nature of God, especially by his infinite love, by truth, beauty, and goodness.
 +
*2. By the will of God, by his mercy ministry and fatherly relationship with the personalities of the universe.
 +
*3. By the law of God, by the righteousness and justice of the eternal Paradise Trinity.
 +

God is unlimited in power, divine in nature, final in will, infinite in attributes, eternal in wisdom, and absolute in reality. But all these characteristics of the Universal Father are unified in Deity and universally expressed in the Paradise Trinity and in the divine Sons of the Trinity. Otherwise, outside of Paradise and the central universe of Havona, everything pertaining to God is limited by the evolutionary presence of the Supreme, conditioned by the eventuating presence of the Ultimate, and co-ordinated by the three existential Absolutes--Deity, Universal, and Unqualified. And God's presence is thus limited because such is the will of God. [http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper3.html#2.%20GOD'S%20INFINITE%20POWER]
