Impossible made reality!
Verse for
Today: Tuesday, December 04, 2012
2 Kings 7:1 – Hear the Word of the Lord.
This is what the Lord says: About this time tomorrow, a seah of flour will sell
for a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria.
The things that God promises and does in this
world and in the lives of His children seem impossible and unbelievable. God’s
mighty works are illogical to human minds. What He does is amazing and how He
accomplishes it is even more astonishing. Many times, even God’s children find
it difficult to believe what God says because it seems absolutely impossible to
reason and prevailing technology. The people of Noah’s time found it impossible
to believe that there would be a flood. Even today the scientific community
cannot figure out how the Sun would stop for a few hours as it was during
Joshua’s times. Our engineers are fascinated as to how a city wall could be
rebuilt without modern engineering and technology within fifty two days. The
war technology is fascinated about the way an army of three hundred would
destroy a large and powerful army without arms. How would a teen kill a giant
without weaponry is unimaginable. How can someone dip in a muddy river seven
times and get his leprosy cured? How would a large fish be the abode for a man
for three days? At the peak of famine, how would food get sold at throwaway
price? Yet all these have been possible by the Almighty at His Word. He
influences our situations to turn the impossible into reality. He would move
the hearts of people and maneuver the elements to accomplish His purpose and it
becomes marvelous in our eyes. When it is impossible, He causes it to rain or
to divide the sea. He brings water from the rock and makes Mara sweet. He heals
the chronically or acutely ill at split second. He knows our needs and urgency
and interferes in our situations to meet our needs at His measure. Today He
wants us to trust Him whether we see Him act or delay.
Dear friend, are you facing an impossible
situation today and are you desperately in need? Are you at your wits end
without seeing a way out of your present predicament? Are all the doors in
front of you shut firmly? But the windows of heaven are not shut. The
compassionate eyes of our Father see us and our needs. He knows our desperate
situations and our crumbling finances. He knows our physical weaknesses and
emotional paralysis. He understands the emotional and spiritual burdens we
carry and works behind the scene to meet it. Tonight there might not be any
indication about the flour and the grins which He will bring to us tomorrow. As
we go to sleep, with burdened hearts and filled eyes, our Father doesn’t sleep
or slumber, but works for us. He sets our situations in such a way that our
needs are met in unbelievable ways and means as we wake up the next morning. He
prepares for the healing of our bodies and souls. He works to give us the means
to meet our physical needs of food, clothing and shelter. He carries our
burdens and gives us the much needed rest and peace in our situations. He shows
us the way forward when we are faced with obstructions and hindrances. He sends
His bright light on our dark pathways. He brings in resources from unknown
sources in our banquet halls, valleys and deserts. Yes, our Lord is active
while we wait for Him and His time to come. Today He reassures us at the historic
gate of Samaria that He will meet our challenges in the most amazing manner. He
lives for us today and makes us live with Him. He meets our needs in His royal
way and makes us His great miracles and amazing witnesses. Let us expect the
impossible from our God today and live by faith.
Psalms 27:13 – I am still confident of
this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Thought for
Today
The mighty power of our God turns our impossibilities into living
realities.
