We all like to confess, us Christians that is, that "nothing is impossible for God". We're quite proud of this confession - we like to brag about our God, and rightly so, how mighty, how powerful He is (we have no idea). We see it as faith on our part when we declare to God "nothing is impossible for you". The truth is, it takes no faith at all to declare our God's omnipotence. It may take belief but it requires no faith to declare the awesomeness of God. Sure He can do the impossible, of course there's nothing He can't do but look at the scripture more closely - MT:19:26, Jesus is speaking, "with men this is impossible but with God all things are possible". He did not say God can do anything. He was not declaring God's awesomeness, He is speaking to us, telling us - WE can do "all things WITH God". If we align ourselves with men (remember, all religions, including Christianity, are founded by and propagated by, men), we cannot do the impossible, for religion has no power from God, only glory from man, but with God, WE can do the impossible, just as Jesus, the man, did. Essentially He's saying we can partner with Him, co-labor with Him to do the impossible, for the word impossible exists only for faithless, godless humanity.....it does not exist in Heaven, in eternity. Just as Jesus the man did that which is routine in Heaven, showing us it can become routine here on earth too, so can we. Jesus is also speaking of Salvation, for it is impossible for man to save himself, it is done "with God" or not at all. We must continually remind ourselves - "I can DO all things THROUGH Christ (with Christ, in Christ)".....Amen.
This blog is my effort to share God's mind and most importantly, heart, as He shares them with me. I make a genuine effort to commune with Him daily and hear from Him. .Some poems are from Him to me, others from me to Him but all revelation shared is, I pray, from the Holy Spirit and not my carnal, soulish opinion. Please comment as you see fit. He is calling us all into His Holy of Holies.....let us all respond to his divine invitation for intimacy with a heart felt YES! SOS 2:11
