TOPIC: With God All Things Are Possible
MEMORISE: “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.” – Mark 10:27 (KJV)
READ: Romans 4:16-21 (KJV)
16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb:
20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Proverbs 28-30
MESSAGE:
In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth from nothing. The Bible says that the earth was without form and void. The earth was shapeless; in other words, there was nothing good about it. If you had seen the earth in its initial state, you would have concluded that there was certainly no possibility of anything good coming out of it. Surprisingly, in less than seven days, the Almighty God created one of the greatest beauties out of nothing. God specialises in impossibilities.
Long ago, a young boy was brought to us because he was a rascal. He was so rascal that we put him in the care of a military man who was also an instrumentalist in the Church then. Anyone who saw this boy then would never have believed anything good could come out of him, but then, the military man started teaching him music. One day, my wife and I travelled. During our trip, she saw a flute she liked and decided to buy it for the so-called rascal. When the boy saw it, he started to practice and today, that little boy whom everyone saw as a rascal is Pastor Kunle Ajayi – my personal minstrel. Each time I go for ministrations and Pastor Kunle plays the saxophone before I come up, the atmosphere changes; the Spirit of the Lord comes down mightily into the meeting.
God changed the name of Hadassah the slave girl to Esther the Queen. God turned a flaming furnace into an air-conditioned atmosphere for three Hebrew boys: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. God shut the mouths of lions for Daniel. The Almighty God pulled down the wall of Jericho standing in the way of the people of God. What can my Daddy not do?
Our God is a God of possibilities. He will make the impossible possible. If there is any situation in your life for which an improvement seems impossible, God will turn it around. If there is any obstacle hindering your joy, the Almighty God is rolling it away now, in Jesus’ name.
Don’t ever doubt God’s ability to make the impossible possible in your life. No matter what you are going through, my Daddy – the Maker of all things – will turn it around. You have to commit your life into His hands and trust Him for the victory that He will give to you.
PRAYER POINT:
Heavenly Father, I ask that every obstacle in my life proving to be insurmountable be rolled away right now, in Jesus’ name.
HYMN 17: O Lord My God! When I In Awesome Wonder
1 O Lord my God! when I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the works Thy hand hath made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow’r thro’out the universe display
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, my saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
Then sing my soul, my saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
2 When through the woods and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze;
3 And when I think that God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die I scare can take it in;
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
4 When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim: “my God how great Thou art!
