We’re all hoping, waiting and even longing for some
kind of transformation in our lives or circumstances. No matter what we’ve
achieved or how much we’ve grown and matured, there’s always another goal or
need in the distance. I remember waiting for six long years to get married only
to find myself impatiently counting the hours until the birth of our daughters.
Right now, I’ve got a room full of dreams, a mixture of desires and needs that I’m
asking God to bring to fulfillment. As I examine them some appear more viable
than others. A few look completely impossible. But I’m confident that God will
accomplish his perfect will for my life, even if it involves moving mountains.
"What is impossible with men is possible with God" (Lk 18:27). Do you
believe it? Do I? I’ve witnessed God do the extraordinary in my own life too
many times to count. He’s brought hope when all signs led to absolute despair and
wrought deliverance when the wisest counsel declared the situation dire. I’ve
been transferred from utter darkness and confusion one day to a panoramic view
of hope the next. God has definitely proven that he’s able to do “abundantly
more than I can ask for imagine.”
God says, “I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is
anything too hard for me?” Jer 32:27. He reminds us from the first day of
creation to the resurrection of his Son that his power is unlimited. He’s able
to move mountains, part oceans, topple strongholds and heal sickness and
diseases. He gives us new hearts, opens our blind eyes and deaf ears to the
truth of the Gospel, raises us from death to life. He opens barren wombs, sets
the lonely in families, exalts the humble and gives strength to the weak. He
heals broken hearts and imparts vision and passion to his people.
He’s the same God right now that he was thousands of
years ago (Heb 13:8). His character and abilities haven’t diminished with time.
He’s not run out of power or ceased hearing the prayers of his people. We can
go before him in prayer just like Moses and Elijah, Paul and Peter and ask
anything in his name, according to his will, and he will do it. When we pray by
faith in the name of Jesus he hears us and he answers. Every single time.
Whether we’re praying for seemingly irrelevant issues or huge concerns, God
hears our cries and he answers (1 Jn 5:14-15).
Our Father loves us and delights in showing us mercy
and compassion. He takes great joy in answering our prayers and revealing his
glory in our lives. All we have to do is go to him and ask for help. Our
problems may look insurmountable to the human eye but not to God. Nothing is
too impossible for him.
Ah Lord God
Ah Lord God, Thou hast made the heavens
And the earth by Thy great power;
Ah Lord God, Thou hast made the heavens
And the earth by Thine outstretched arm.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hillsong_united/ah_lord_god.html ]
Nothing is too difficult for Thee,
Nothing is too difficult for Thee;
O,
great and mighty God, And the earth by Thy great power;
Ah Lord God, Thou hast made the heavens
And the earth by Thine outstretched arm.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hillsong_united/ah_lord_god.html ]
Nothing is too difficult for Thee,
Nothing is too difficult for Thee;
Great in power and mighty in deed,
Nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing,
Nothing is too difficult for Thee.
