A Prayer to Imagine That Nothing Is Too Exhausting for the Lord
By Christine Perry
“Behold, I’m the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there something too arduous for Me?” – Jeremiah 32:27 NKJV
What’s your not possible scenario? It might be a prognosis, a mediocre marriage, a wayward baby, infertility, prolonged singleness, a damaged relationship, perpetual setbacks, or insufferable loss. We have all come to a useless finish in some space of our lives. If you have not, it is coming.
So, how do you consider that nothing is just too arduous for the Lord once you can not seem to discover a approach out? In Mark 9, we see a father who’s determined to seek out therapeutic for his son. He says to the Lord, “But when You are able to do something, have compassion on us and assist us.” Jesus kindly says all issues are potential to those that consider. The daddy says via tears, “Lord, I consider; assist my unbelief!”
I believe the most effective place to start out after we are struggling to consider is to be trustworthy with the Lord and admit that we need to consider however are wrestling with doubt.
I bear in mind one season, I felt like I would come to the tip of my religion. I prayed and stated one thing alongside the traces of, “Lord, I can not maintain on any longer. I do not see why all this heartbreak and letdown has occurred and I do not know the way it’ll ever be rotated. I’m dropping hope.”
In 2 Timothy 2:13, it says, “If we’re faithless, He stays trustworthy; He can not deny Himself.” Our hearts, minds, our bodies, and religion will fail, however God will not ever fail. He won’t ever depart us or forsake us. Psalm 94:14 says, “For the Lord is not going to forged off His folks, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.”
The second factor we are able to do is to take a look at what God has performed previously.
- God gave Sarah a baby previous childbearing years
- Parted the Pink Sea
- Introduced forth water from a rock
- Fed over a half-million Israelites within the desert for 40 years
- Had a pagan king pay for the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem
- Made an ax head float to the floor of the water
- Annihilated an enemy military whereas the Israelites sang
- Saved three males from a fiery furnace
- Shut the mouth of lions
- Raised the useless
- Gave sight to the blind
- Healed lepers
- Turned water into wine
- Walked on water
- Fed the 5,000 with 5 loaves and two fish
- Took away the punishment for our sins perpetually
Once we start itemizing all God has performed, it helps remind us that, really, there may be nothing too arduous for Him. However, generally, these truths take some time to sink in, which is why we have to be in prayer usually and our face in our Bibles each day. It is our line of hope, and that hope anchors us in probably the most turbulent storms.
Let’s pray:
Pricey Heavenly Father,
Thank You that You’re the similar yesterday, right now, and perpetually. That being stated, what You will have performed previously, You are able to do it once more. However Lord, we all know You see your complete image, and we solely see a sliver. So, I ask that You’ll give us the religion to not solely consider in You however belief and relaxation in You.
Father, no plans of Yours will be thwarted. However, God, we come to You with our requests, asking, knocking, and looking for Your tackle our conditions as a result of that is what You inform us to do. You inform us to be just like the persistent widow who wouldn’t relaxation till she obtained justice. Assist us to be folks of prayer in order that after we hit a wall, we’ll drop to our knees, understanding full nicely that You are in a position, however then assist us to get again up after we have petitioned heaven and belief You with no matter consequence You select. As a result of what You select will probably be what’s greatest for the longest period of time for the best variety of folks.
Thank You that we are able to come to You damaged and know that You’ll by no means forged us away, even after we doubt.
Lord, we consider, assist our unbelief. Amen!
