Wisdom For The Day Devotional 22 May 2022 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Nothing Is Impossible With God
TOPIC: Nothing Is Impossible With God (TREM Devotional 22 May 2022)
“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? And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee! And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him”. Genesis 17:17-19 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
Beloved, how often have we tried to tell God how impossible our situation is when we are supposed to tell the situation how immensely possible our God is? Abraham was telling 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 will be blessed in the same place. God was saying to Abraham, “I am not talking about a child. I am talking about 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 stock 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 on to the situation you are in presently. The bible says whatever you are seeing right now is temporary. That means it is subject to change.
Child of God, believe God because He is faithful from generation to generation and 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 knew His faithfulness and you are sure He would not fail? What will you ask Him for if you knew that He will surely give it? What will you request from Him if you were certain he would not refuse you? I assure you he will answer, and you will testify.
