Still Doing The Impossible

I'll be sharing posts from my husband's Monday devotion.
Be blessed...

Today I will be sharing with you on what I title, “Still Doing The Impossible.” I want to say boldly to you that God is still in the business of doing the “impossible” even in the midst of seemingly difficult situations as we can see today. If you take a look around, you will observe that people are complaining due to the harsh economic situation in the land. Like the saying goes, “Times are hard these days.” Being able to eat two square meals, not even three, has become a huge challenge for most families today. I was chatting with someone lately, and he said, “Our nation is technically broke”.  

A word dropped into my heart saying, “Heaven is not technically broke.”The negative confessions being spewed out into the atmosphere by people these days are really sickening and infectious. You can’t hang around negative people and expect positive outcome. You may have to change your companions after reading this article. I am writing you this message to let you know that irrespective of what you might be going through, God can still meet and surpass your needs. Philippians 4:19 puts it this way, “But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” There is no lack in heaven. God’s riches are inexhaustible. It is God’s desire that you prosper and live in abundance (3 John 1:2). But you can only access these riches by Faith. You see, faith is to God as fear is to the devil.

The two cannot mix. You cannot operate in fear and expect to receive from God. It is Impossible! “For without faith it is impossible to please God” (Heb.11:6). Today you hear people saying there is famine in the land. Yes, if you look around, you can see the effect on people’s faces. But the word of God says, “In times of famine you shall be satisfied” (Psalm 37:19). The question is: Whose report do you believe?

Famine as the world says or abundance as the word of God says? Listen, if everything in your life fails, but your faith still stands, you have not failed. God is not interested in the size of your faith but in the direction of your faith. Why? You may have a believe (faith) that something good will not come your way. You can equally have the faith that good things are coming to you. They are both faith but in opposite directions. Both directions produces result – positive or negative, life or death, abundance or lack – the choice is yours.

When God says in His word, “Is anything hard for me” (Gen.18:14); it’s either you align with that word and see His saving power or go otherwise. Therefore, no matter how bad your case may be, your faith creates an atmosphere for God to do wonders in your life. Faith chokes Satan as fear shuts down the power of God to operate.


As you go this week, focus on God – not your problems – for He is bigger than anything that comes your way. Remember, “For with God nothing is impossible (Luke 1:37).
