Topic: God Can Do It [TREM Devotional 15 January 2019]
“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”Mark 9:23 KJV
Child of God, don’t accept the challenges your parents went through. You will succeed, and you will excel irrespective of your background! You have made your choice to serve Jehovah and there is no way He would abandon you. He will fight your battles. He will shut the mouth of the enemy and He would silence the voice of the wicked. It may not have worked in your family, but God brought you into that family and delivered you. So there is no way you will not testify.
The Bible says this is the confidence that we have in Him, that when we pray according to His will He heareth us. In other words, because I know He hears; and because I know He hears me, I have the petition. You may not see it around me but I am pregnant with it. After nine months, you will see it manifest.
Let us not go about as if we are orphans. The whole of Heaven is working on our behalf. Let me ask you! Do you think that your challenges bring glory to God? No! God wants you to go through these challenges and come out on top. He is even eager to get you delivered much more than you think. The Bible says: “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things.” (Romans 8:32 KJV)
He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we think… In other words, what is your capacity? If I take a bottle of wine, God is saying that one is too small. He can fill a drum. If you come with a drum, He will fill it. If you come to Him with tanker, He will still fill it. He said, even if you go and dig the biggest reservoir, He is still not done with His resources. Don’t doubt God. Don’t limit yourself, God can do anything.
