All Things Are Possible

Good morning! The Lord is with you. Let us worship the Lord in the beauty of the Holy Spirit. Let us worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth, God’s Word.

Song Collection:

All things are possible when we believe.
All things are possible when we believe.
Faith moves the hand of God,
Faith in His living Word,
All things are possible when we believe.

Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, ‘With men this is impossible: but with God all things are possible.’ Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, ‘If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.’ Mark 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.’

Dorothy: This statement “all things are possible” is something to think about. Did Jesus mean everything? What about when He went to the Garden of Gethsemane? Jesus was deeply distressed; His soul was in deep sorrow and He felt death coming on Him. He fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might speed up and get it over with [Mark 14:33-35]. Jesus said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from Me: nevertheless not what I want, but what You Father want” [Mark 14:36].

The “all things” does not mean everything we can think of. The prayer of faith is base on the will of God; it never asks for anything foolish or wrong [James 4:3]. As for Jesus He asked God to let this cup of suffering to pass from Him, but Jesus knew the important of God’s will, salvation of the world. So Jesus surrenders Himself to God’s plan and God gave His own Son, the strength to be able to drink the “cup of suffering.” God gave Jesus the mighty power to endure the unbearable. Jesus finished the work of the cross, the salvation of the world.

All the Christians of the world who suffered the torture of holding on to their faith in Jesus, had to believe that “all things are possible” for them to endure the impossible things. Are you going through what seems impossible? Then this is for you. If you have problems, ask God for wisdom because He is generous to give you His wisdom. To God all things are possible is when He gives us wisdom and strength to do what we need to do. Believe in God. Believe also in Jesus. God bless you today.
