January 5: Nothing Is Impossible
Luke 1:26-38
Note: First of all, I want to start out by saying, that when God promises, in His Word, that He will do something, He does. He is not a man that He should lie {Numbers 23:19 "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?. That includes anything that seem impossible. There is no limitation to God's ability. The limitation is in our faith. And faith is acquired by hearing the Word of God {Romans 10:17 "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"}. Faith moves God. And faith is acquired through the hearing of God's word.
Andrew's teaching continues...
The Birth of Jesus Foretold
26And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
28And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured/favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour/favor with God.
31And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
37For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
What a statement. If we just believed this the way Mary believed it when Gabriel spoke it to her, how different our lives would be. From birth we are trained to know our limitations. “You can’t have this. Don’t touch that. Don’t put things in your mouth. You can’t touch the fire.” The list goes on and on. As we grow up, it’s actually a sign of maturity to recognize our limitations and learn to live within them. It is a fact of life that there are limits to everything.
God, on the other hand, has no limits. When we enter into the realm of His supernatural power, we have to take off the limits we have learned through the years. We have to renew our minds with the truth that He is not like us. He can do anything. We have an awesome God Whose power is so great that we can’t even comprehend it. He created the universe, and it didn’t even tax His ability. Yet many times we find ourselves wondering if our situation is too hard for Him. We can’t see how He can pull us through.
The Lord said to Jeremiah, “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” (Jer. 32:27.) The answer is a resounding no! The only thing that limits God is our unbelief. (Deut. 7:1717If thou shalt say in thine heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?.)
Today, honor God by believing that nothing is too difficult for Him. Whatever you are facing, He is more than able and more than willing to help you and bless you. {Note: this is when we say "in Yeshua's/Jesus'/Isa's Mighty Name. Amen!!!}
