If YOU CAN – Part 2
Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." Mark 9:23
Like the father (who wanted deliverance for his son), we think the Pastor when they pray for us, things are not happening, because the pastor is not close to God. We judge and like to blame others for our problems. We can feel good by blaming others, but our feelings will not change our situations. Neither, we feeling pity about ourself will change our situations. What we should do to see the change in our situation is only believe. God has answered our prayers we have to only believe. Our belief will either gets us the blessings or stops our blessings. Our belief will get us the breakthrough or stop our breakthrough.
Remember David and Goliath. We might have heard this story of victory which David achieved. But there is a sad story of failure linked with it too. Failure of the whole army of Israelites who couldn't defeat Goliath. Everyday the whole army got ready, wore their armor and came to the battlefield but never had the guts to fight Goliath. King Saul, who led the army, didn't have the faith in God and couldn't believe that he can achieve this victory. All the Israelite army didn't have the faith to believe the victory. They were trained to battle. They were trained to fight but their own thoughts stopped them from even moving ahead and getting their victory. On the other hand, we look at David a small shepherd, who was not trained to fight, didn't have the weapons to fight, but only had belief in God. His faith in God made him use the small stones which he used to fight bears and lions, trying to steal his sheep. One was fully equipped and trained, and the other (David) not trained nor equipped. The only difference between them was what their belief. The whole army believed in their problem and David believed in his God who can make every impossible as possible. What are you believing? Are you believing your problems are greater than your God then you will never overcome, but if you believe that our Living God is greater than your problem, then with all your weakness and incapabilities and limited talents also you will be able to overcome every impossible things. If you can believe all things are possible. Whether you have the talent or not, if you have the belief that with God's strength you can do it, God will use the things you have, to bless you. Joseph was a dreamer, David only had a sling, God said, "That is what I require and I will bless you with through those dreams. I will help you win using those useless stones." Don't compare yourself with others. God has equipped you to be who you are. You are exactly as God wanted you to be. He has given you the talents that you require to be successful and promoted. Only believe. If you can believe, everything will be possible for you. God bless you.
