Is God Able?

This is the question we will all have to face in our lives at one time or another. As we face the trials and tests of this life on earth, we will all be looking for an answer to help us out of, around or through every situation. When people have tried all the things the world has to offer and those things have failed them, then they will look to God with this question. Is God able to deliver us from what we are going through? Is God able to do anything with this mess in my life? This happened to the Israelite's as they journeyed through the wilderness.                                                                                                                                        Psalms 78:19 (HCSB) 
¹⁹ They spoke against God, saying, “Is God able to provide food in the wilderness? As you read this chapter you will find that they had seen God deliver them time and time again. He gave them water from the rock in the wilderness. He sent them manna  from above to eat and sustain them while they were in the wilderness. God had delivered them from bondage in Egypt by parting the red sea. He led them by a cloud in the daytime and a cloud of fire at night. He had worked so many miracles for them and took care of their every need but in verse 19 they still questioned God's desire and ability to provide for them through every circumstance and situation. We look at this and wonder where their brain was. We don't understand how they could question God's ability to provide for them at all times because of what God had already done for them in the past.                                                                                                      Psalms 78:41 (NKJV) 

⁴¹ Yes, again and again they tempted God, And limited the Holy One of Israel. Their attitude deeply hurt and wounded God's heart. Their actions tempted God to let them wander in the wilderness for 40 years. And their actions limited God from acting on their behalf then and in the future.  

But, are we guilty of doing the same thing? Are we tempting God to let us wander on in our misery, pain, and suffering? Has God reached the limit of His ability in your life and is not able to lead you on to new places and new resources and new developments? Surely He can do new things in all of our lives. The bible tells us with God nothing is impossible.(Luke 1:37)     

Yes, God can do new things in our lives. Unheard of- hidden things that will bless us. May we enlarge our hearts and not tempt or limit God from doing His work in our lives. Think of it, the only thing greater than God's ability to move in our lives is the limits we impose on Him through our unbelief. Yes, you and I can limit the very God who made everything and who keeps it intact. We must desire and believe God to work in our lives. Then we will see great and mighty things we know not. We will miss many pitfalls and problems in our lives as we allow Him to lead, guide, and direct our way. We must ask and look for unheard of things. We must set our faith on Him. He  is more than ready to do wonderful exploits in our lives and the lives of our families and those around us. He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than we could ask or think according to the power that works in us. (Ephesians 3:20)

God is ready and willing to surpass all our expectations as we trust and believe in His willingness and ability to do great things in our lives. 

If you don't know God personally and you have never been forgiven of your sins against Him, you can come to personally know Him and have your sins forgiven by asking Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and by inviting Jesus to live in you, take charge of your life and do these great exploits in your life.

He is waiting for your decision, what will it be?  

Remember God is able!
