Prayer Focus: Faith For The Impossible
Nothing is impossible with God so why doesn’t the impossible always happen?
Mark 11:22-24 (NIV) 22 “Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. 23 “Truly[a] I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
Ways that your faith can rise to the level of the impossible
Everytime you want to believe for the impossible:
When we remind ourselves of what God has already done
Jeremiah 32:17 (NIV)
17 “Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
The best predictor of God’s present help is His past faithfulness.
Luke 1:26-38 (NIV)
26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called[a] the Son of God. 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.”
38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.
For nothing in the Greek is no rhema (is the word for word)... logos or rhema
Logos is the Greek word for the literal word you read.
Rhema is the Greek word when the word becomes alive in you.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word.
Mary heard the word and at one point it became alive in her. Which is why Mary said, “may it be as you have said.
No word that God speaks, when revelation to you, will be void of the power for its own fulfillment.
It will happen on the inside of you.
What have you ever thought that was impossible?
You know what God has said to you and His word spoken into your life and you can say “No, God has called me to….” (whatever He has promised).
