Focus: Jeremiah 32:26-27 - KJV
26. Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying, 27. Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Matthew 19:23-26
In the life of man, there are very many challenges that confront and shake him. Some are faced with illnesses. Others with poverty, troubled minds, anxieties, insecurity, loneliness and name it. Many are not even sure of the journey of their destinies and therefore go scampering about as to how they are to excel in life. But there is God who is the Author of all things. In their dealings, they leave out the God factor and assume things are difficult or tight. There is nothing under the Heavens that is difficult for God to do. Some even say but God cannot sin or commit iniquity. Please note that sin is a challenge to the authority of a superior being, and in the right case, God. So, against who can God sin or commit iniquity? Before Esau was born, the Lord had pronounced his essence. Who was Esau to challenge God and say, why did you make me less than my younger brother? Nonetheless, God is not wicked, as some may think. Everything He does, is for a purpose. There is never a thing too difficult for Him to do. There is no mountain that He cannot destroy. Jericho was over-fortified for the time of Israel’s access into it. But the fortification was pushed down in one fell swoop without a direct human contact with the wall. Even Christ says, though it is difficult for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle, with God it isn’t. Moreover, as difficult as that may be, it is much more difficult for the rich to get into Heaven. Yet, God can make the rich go in.
What is it that is appearing impossible to you? The highest as per our passage is perhaps you have been rich through dubious means and now, it has become clear to you that you are going nowhere near Heaven. Be of good cheer, for with God all things are possible. If only you will amend your ways and put God above your belongings, that which you thought impossible, the Lord can ease it up for you. In your own case, is it the worries of life that is weighing you down? Why not look to God who is the All-Powerful with whom nothing shall be impossible to rescue you in your current situation. It will surprise you how easy the solution can be.
SOLUTION: Submit yourself first unto the Lord. Then resist the devil firmly concerning that situation and see everything ease up by the power of God. Never doubt the power of God to achieve whatever righteous thing you want to achieve. He comes through for those who have faith in Him.
Father, on this very day, we pray that you take care of all seeming impossibilities in the lives of your people in the name of Jesus Christ. Let your hand be clearly manifest in all our affairs from today in Jesus’ name. Forgive us by your mercy of everything that may want to impede our standing in your presence in Jesus’ name.
