It is possible to overcome the odds against you

Mark 9:23 23Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”

Impossible things happen to those who believe they can happen. The Bible is full of the accounts of real people who were able rise from the ashes of defeat or from completely insignificant backgrounds to make a success out their lives. We have examples of people who achieved impossible feats and commanded great results in their lives despite the odds that were against them. A virgin conceived against normal physiological principles. Sarah delivered Isaac at the age of ninety; twice the age of menopause! Daniel survived the lions den. Joseph survived the most vicious household enemy conspiracy, slavery and prison to become Prime Minister in a foreign land. What are the odds against you? What are your dreams? Do you feel they are impossible? No; to him that believes, all things are possible!

Come and be inspired from next Sunday from the lives of people broke through impossible barriers to achieve their God-given goals. YOUR STORY IS ABOUT TO CHANGE!

SPONSOR AD

From the life of David we learn that it doesn’t matter what man thinks about you, you can become a successful leader as long as God is on your side. David’s relations didn’t think he was qualified to be king but God thought differently. You will fulfil your destiny in Jesus name! From David we learn also that it is possible to survive a hostile environment and fulfil your divine assignment. Saul made several attempts to kill him but God preserved his life. The beautiful thing however is that David did not throw the javelin back at Saul. He left that for God and the Saul used his own sword to kill himself eventually. Don’t waste your time pursuing your enemies, rather, chase after God and what you are called to do; God will take care of the rest.

You Must Believe

Your possibilities are created by your belief. All things are possible to him who believes. They become reality when you act on those beliefs.

You can overcome any adversity in life through faith. Faith is not an easy proposition when you are faced with life-threatening situations.

1John 5:4, “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith.

Any dream, marriage, ministry, business, etc. authored by God will overcome the world. The enemy may drag you for a while but you will come out triumphant! All hell may break loose but you will overcome the world!

Everyone may abandon you, but God is with you; you will overcome the world, you will prevail!

Expect to receive. The woman with the issue of blood moved through the crowd to touch the helm of the garment of Jesus because she expected to receive.

Expectation is the proof of trust and your future is decided by the person you have chosen to trust. Impossible things happen to those who expect them to happen. Expect God to heal you and solve your problem. You cannot rise above your belief system. SHE DID NOT GET HER MIRACLE BECAUSE OF HER PAIN OR TEARS. It seems contradictory to most Christians, but God does not respond to needs. Millions cannot grasp that truth, but God has never responded to pain. Mike Murdock says,

  • He responds to Protocol.
  • He responds to Procedure.
  • He responds to Pursuit and Passion. God will respond to the faith of an ungodly person quicker than He will respond to the pain of the godly. He will always respond to those who believe and follow His instructions.

Her healing was immediate when she touched the helm of Jesus’ garment. Stop right now and ask God for the solution to that stubborn problem; claim your miracle by faith. I see God releasing an immediate solution to you. The manifestation of your miracle may come later but you must keep on believing you have it.

This nation will recover from the current challenges facing and rise to greatness! But we must trust God and look up to Him for help.
