TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
|
When was the last time you
asked God to do something impossible, something out of the ordinary? I
believe that one reason we don’t see God do great things is because we only
ask Him for small things. Most people pray over their food, pray for
protection, or pray for wisdom. That’s all good, but don’t limit what God can
do. There should be something you’re praying about, something that you’re
asking for that is beyond you, something that you can’t accomplish in your
own strength. Do you dare to ask?
Your dreams may look
impossible. You don’t have the funding or the connections, but God is saying,
“I dare you to ask Me to bring it to pass. I dare you to ask Me to show you a
flood of My favor.”
All through the scripture, we
see people doing this. Elisha prayed that it wouldn’t rain, and for three and
a half years there was no rain. Joshua prayed for more daylight, and God
stopped the sun. Follow their example and step out in faith. Dare to ask,
dare to believe God, and see His mighty hand move on your behalf!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
|
|
Father, today I give
praise and glory to You because You are worthy, You are able, and You are at
work in me. I dare to ask for the impossible, to believe that You can
accomplish infinitely more than I could ever ask or think in Jesus’ name.
Amen.

When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through” The answer is NO , as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing- and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
