God Is A Capable Father

God can handle any situation you give Him. No problem is too tough for Him. Nothing is beyond His ability. But the first thing you've got to do is bring it to Him. What's the decision you're facing this week? What's the mountain that needs to be moved? Cancer? Bankruptcy? Your kids are having problems? Can't break a bad habit? "Nothing is impossible with God." In Jeremiah 32:27 God says, "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?" (NIV) It's almost like God laying down the gauntlet saying, "I dare you. Think up a problem that I couldn't solve. Is anything to hard for me?" Most of us, growing up, have said, "My daddy can do anything! My daddy can beat your daddy!" I really thought that. As I grew up I began to have my eyes opened. I realized that when it came to my allowance, my dad had limited resources. When it came to advice, sometimes he was just guessing too. My guess was as good as his, because he's an imperfect father. Yet, Ephesians 3:20 says, "God is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes!" (LB) I have a pretty vivid imagination. I can think up some pretty big dreams. I can set some high goals. God says, "My son, you think up the greatest thing you think I could do in your life and I can beat that. I can top that."

“For the word of God will never fail.””
