Mission Impossible

"For nothing is impossible with God."

Luke 1:37

Start a business.  Go to law school.  Move three children and a dog across country, away from all family, friends, and familiar places.  Quit your job.  Lose 100 pounds.  Go back to school.  Seek healing from a stage 4 cancer diagnosis. 

Before you is what seems to be an impossible mission or situation. You are facing insurmountable odds.  Others have been at this place and failed.  Others have had the same diagnosis and died. What makes you different from all the others before you? 

The Word of God often reminds us of impossible situations that with Him are made possible.  And that is why we are told by the gospel writer that nothing is impossible with God.  Even our unchanging God may change his mind as He did with King Hezekiah (see 2 Kings 20:1-6) when he was at the point of death.  The prophet Isaiah was sent to tell him that he would not recover and was going to die.  Hezekiah immediately went  in prayer to the life giving Source, his Creator, the Great Physician and reminded Him of his faithful and devoted walk.  God changed His mind, healed the king, and added 15 years to his life.

Will God, who is no respecter of persons, remove impossibility from your situation?  Yes, of course He will.  Can you pray and believe God for the impossible to be made possible? Will you speak to the mountain of impossibility facing you?  Can you believe that with God, nothing is impossible?

Speak those words.  Boldly declare them.  Act on them.  See God change the impossible to possible.
