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 unimaginable scenario? It might be a analysis, a mediocre marriage, a wayward baby, infertility, prolonged singleness, a damaged relationship, perpetual setbacks, or insufferable loss. We have all come to a lifeless finish in some space of our lives. If you have not, it is coming.
So, how do you imagine that nothing is simply too arduous for the Lord while you can not seem to discover a approach out? In Mark 9, we see a father who’s determined to search 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 doable to those that imagine. The daddy says by means of tears, “Lord, I imagine; assist my unbelief!”
I believe the very best place to start out once we are struggling to imagine is to be sincere with the Lord and admit that we need to imagine however are wrestling with doubt.
I keep in mind one season, I felt like I would come to the top of my religion. I prayed and mentioned one thing alongside the strains of, “Lord, I can’t 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 devoted; He can’t 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 won’t forged off His individuals, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.”
The second factor we are able to do is to have a look at what God has completed up to now.
- God gave Sarah a toddler previous childbearing years
- Parted the Purple 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 lifeless
- 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
After we start itemizing all God has completed, it helps remind us that, really, there’s nothing too arduous for Him. However, generally, these truths take some time to sink in, which is why we should 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, immediately, and perpetually. That being mentioned, what You’ve completed up to now, 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 imagine in You however belief and relaxation in You.
Father, no plans of Yours could be thwarted. However, God, we come to You with our requests, asking, knocking, and searching 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 acquired justice. Assist us to be individuals of prayer in order that once we hit a wall, we’ll drop to our knees, realizing full nicely that You are ready, however then assist us to get again up after we have petitioned heaven and belief You with no matter final result You select. As a result of what You select might be what’s greatest for the longest period of time for the best variety of individuals.
Thank You that we are able to come to You damaged and know that You’ll by no means forged us away, even once we doubt.
Lord, we imagine, assist our unbelief. Amen!
