Impossible means -cannot be done. But with God all things are possible. " There is nothing too hard for God." ( Jeremiah 32:7).
1. We Must Be Confident - In Psalm 19:1 " the heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handywork." One look at a star-filled sky is enough to convince us of God's convincing power, making impossible-possible. God is taking good care of us, His power, His love, and His care.
The Lord reigns...relax! - The strongest and safest protection we have is the name Jesus. The Lord will not forsake us. He is a saving name, a comforting name, a powerful name and and exalted name. "If God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31). When you're feeling down or afraid,consider Jesus, commit all to the Lord and stop worrying.
2. All Things Are Not Hard For Jesus - Jesus asked a question to all of us: "Is there any thing too hard for me?" (Jeremiah 32:27). Jesus also answered this question: " With God nothing shall be impossible." (Luke 1:37). Therefore we must rely on Him because God's power is greater than our problems. God is stronger than our adversaries. God's power is greater than our sins. (Isaiah 1:18). The problem with people is....all his problems are brought to God's attention for help but not his SIN!!! The true miracle is "when a person's life is changed for the glory of God." When we surrender our life to God.
3. God Calls Us To Call Upon Him - "Call unto me and I will answer thee." (Jeremiah 33:3). God is extending His helping hand. The Lord's hand was not shortened. (Isaiah 59:1-2). God's power was not diminished. The problem wasn't with God but with people. If you continue your sins and iniquities...God will not hear you! If God seems so far away, guess who moved? People had moved to the place of unanswered prayer. Don't accuse God when you are the problem. If you don't surrender to Christ, you surrender to chaos. It is not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it. God speaks to those who take time to listen, and God listen to those who take time to pray. God's favorite word is "COME!" Our heavenly Father never takes anything from His children, unless He means to give them something better.
