Genesis 18:14<\/b>\u00a0<\/a><\/span>\u00a0Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son.\u201d<\/p>\n

Numbers 11:23<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And the LORD said to Moses, \u201cIs the LORD’s hand shortened? Now you shall see whether my word will come true for you or not.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deuteronomy 7:21<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0You shall not be in dread of them, for the LORD your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God, nothing can hinder the LORD<\/p>\n

1 Samuel 14:6<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Jonathan said to the young man who carried his armor, \u201cCome, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised. It may be that the LORD will work for us, for nothing can hinder the LORD from saving by many or by few.\u201d<\/p>\n

Job 42:2<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u201cI know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.<\/p>\n

Psalms 93:1<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0The LORD reigns; he is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed; he has put on strength as his belt. Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.<\/p>\n

Jeremiah 32:17<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u2018Ah, Lord GOD! It is you who have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.<\/p>\n

Micah 7:18<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.<\/p>\n

Matthew 3:9<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And do not presume to say to yourselves, \u2018We have Abraham as our father,\u2019 for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham.<\/p>\n

Matthew 14:31<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, \u201cO you of little faith, why did you doubt?\u201d<\/p>\n

Matthew 19:26<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0But Jesus looked at them and said, \u201cWith man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Philippians 4:13<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0I can do all things through him who strengthens me.<\/p>\n

Ephesians 3:20<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,<\/p>\n

Luke 1:37<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0For nothing will be impossible with God.\u201d<\/p>\n

When you read words like;\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cNothing is impossible with God,\u201d \u201cHe is able to do far more than all that we ask and think,\u201d \u201cGod is able,\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cGod, nothing is too hard for You\u201d, ” why do you doubt,” do you feel a bit like your faith is not living up to what God can do?\u00a0 <\/span>In some ways this is to be expected for we do not understand the \u201climitless power of God\u201d.\u00a0 <\/span>When we come to a situation in our life where all of our being clings to, relies on, and trusts in God, we still are limited by our finite understanding and knowledge of God.\u00a0 <\/span>This does not limit what God can do.<\/p>\n

Even if we try to think of all the possible things God can do, we would not barely scratch the surface of what He is able to do.<\/p>\n

Why to we fret?\u00a0 <\/span>Why do we worry? Why are we anxious? Why do we doubt? Why do we put limits on what we think God can and will do? Why do we fear?\u00a0 <\/span>Why do we get upset?\u00a0 <\/span>Are these indicators of our thinking of what we think God can do in our lives and situations? \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Is it possible we have limited thinking on what God can do because we spend limited time with Him.\u00a0 <\/span>We may give him the courtesy Sunday morning nod and maybe even a christian radio station on in the car but is there more substance to our walk than this?\u00a0 <\/span>Are these turning into a performance \u201ccheck the box\u201d kind of things and not really living and experiencing a faith filled daily walking together relationship with God.<\/p>\n

Having a mind set on being in the presence of God throughout the day is much different than a \u201ctouch base with God\u201d on and off during the week.\u00a0 <\/span>Walking with Him throughout the day is a choice.\u00a0 <\/span>This is similar to the choice to learn more of Him and from Him.\u00a0 <\/span>It is a choice to hear Him whisper into your life.\u00a0 <\/span>It is a choice to call on Him, to thank Him, to worship Him, to rely on Him, to wait for His leading, to follow Him, to obey Him, and to serve Him.<\/p>\n

We will never approach seeing His mighty hand at work or doing the impossible unless we are in the presence of God, with faith leading our heart, mind, and soul closer and closer to Him.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
