Post date: May 7, 2019 3:48:14 AM

We do often find ourselves facing seemingly impossible situations in various ways and do wonder how did we get there, how do we get out, what will or should we do next, what we did wrong to here, where we miss the mark in our relationship and service to God? Most often we think of the devil acting to punish us or disturb our lives, we think our faults or unintended mistakes caught up with us, and we are reaping the results of our past. But we also, experience many impossible situations even when we are very truthful to man and to God in all things, when we are always and very faithful to God and very dedicated to our duties to man and to God, even when we are very prayerful and faithful in reading and meditating on the scripture and being led daily by the word of God. Impossibilities come in many ways to various people irrespective of location, faith, language, status, gender, and profession, but one thing is very certain, there are no impossibilities in and with and for the God we serve even in dare situations. Our God, He is always the God of all possibilities irrespective of the location, situation, circumstances and the length of time.

When God enabled Sarah to conceive, it was at a time that humanly and scientifically speaking and reasoning according to wisdom, was totally impossible. Based on human knowledge and with what can be seen with the eyes of men, Sarah was too old to conceive and Abraham was too old to have a son of his own; people around them had lost all hopes in ever seeing such happen to them even though Abraham was still trusting God and not knowing how it will happen. People may have heard Abraham talk repeatedly about God’s promise to give them a son that will be called Isaac, but they were written off by men and their servants did not trust Abraham’s story again, yet at the appropriate time, God showed up and perform the impossible to His glory and praise and confirm His words and promises to Abraham. This was Sarah’s testimony and Abraham’s action when God did the impossible.

“The Lord kept his word and did for Sarah exactly what he had promised. She became pregnant, and she gave birth to a son for Abraham in his old age. This happened at just the time God had said it would. And Abraham named their son Isaac. Eight days after Isaac was born, Abraham circumcised him as God had commanded. Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born. And Sarah declared, God has brought me laughter. All who hear about this will laugh with me. Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse a baby? Yet I have given Abraham a son in his old age. When Isaac grew up and was about to be weaned, Abraham prepared a huge feast to celebrate the occasion.” Genesis 26:1-8

Remember God, not man will do it, will fulfill the promise; He said, “I will do whatever you ask” in due time God will do yours, He will give you an answer that will change your situation and change your expectation of yourself and of your situation, He will give you an answer that will be sweet to see, sweet to tell and an answer that will bring you into a celebration that the people around you never expected in your life considering your past and present situation; considering your age, old or young; considering your background and your family history; considering the stories they have heard of you, the accusations, the insults, the humiliations, the resistance, the delays, the sorrowful loneliness, the barrenness, the painful singlehood, and your education, God said whatever you ask, that He will do.

What a joy to know God promised it. “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind, forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful on earth shall have already been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose, permit, declare lawful on earth shall have already been loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, that if two believers on earth agree about anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in My name, I am there among them.” Matthew 18:18-20. Can we pray together? Prayer Request Click here
