NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

“Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?” Genesis 17:17 KJV
Beloved, how often have we tried to tell God how impossible our situation is, when we are supposed to tell the situation how immensely big our God is? Abraham was asking himself where in this world will I ever make it? How can it be?” God replied: “Shut your mouth. Abraham, it has nothing to do with you. Abraham, it is not over yet. Your heir apparent is coming out of your loins. Out of the very place, where you said was dead, your heir will come. It is not over yet. You’ll be blessed in the same place. God was saying to Abraham, “I am not talking about a child; I am talking about a multitude around the world”.
Child of God, if we mortal men are so concerned about His work here on earth, how much more is the God that owns us concerned about us? I assure you that He is more concerned about you than you are about Him. So, relax! God has so much in store for you. You can’t be frustrated! Simply hold on to the unfailing word of God. He is more than able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we can ask or think. The secret is to believe Him and not look at the situation you are in presently.
Believe God because He is faithful from generation to generation. He cannot fail! If He did not fail Abraham when all hope seemed lost, then he cannot fail you. He is God and He does not change. What would you believe God for today, if you really knew His faithfulness and you are sure He would not fail? What would you ask Him for if you knew that He would surely give it? What would you request from Him if you were confident he would not refuse you? I assure you that God will answer you, and you will testify.
