…but God

I cannot control the future…

I cannot transform the lives of those hurting…

I cannot heal broken hearts or broken bones…

I cannot eradicate unemployment so families have enough to eat…

I cannot end poverty…

I cannot build enough homes to move the millions of people living in shacks…

I cannot feed every hungry person I meet…

I cannot plant churches in all of the unreached people groups…

I cannot keep an addict from relapsing…

I cannot provide medication for all the sick people I know…

I cannot always find the strength to continue fighting the Prince of this World…

 

…BUT God can!

God can take a few loaves of bread and a few fish and feed thousands. God multiplies our efforts; it is the economy of His Kingdom. God can heal the blind, the lame, those with broken hearts and bones. God can raise from the dead. God, the Sovereign, has already gone ahead of us and claimed victory in our efforts.

Alone we can do nothing but with God we can do anything.

So pray big! Expect big! Put yourself in situations where you must call on God so all who hear know the only way you could have done what you did was because of your God. Call on Him in impossible situations because that is His specialty. Boldly tell what you have seen your God do because He is alive, moving, and still performing miracles.

You cannot..but God can!

Fill in the blank: ‘I cannot ______…but I am now standing in faith that God can!’
