Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary. Hebrews 6:18b-19
Lots of people are quick to tell you what God CAN do, what He promises to do, and what He's already done. And all of what He has done is so great that oftentimes, we cannot find words to properly express all we feel about it! It's wonderful! Truly wonderful!
However, there are also those I have met in my life who will throw down the gauntlet and say, "God can't do everything!" And then they stand there, defiantly waiting for me to contradict them. But I don't. I agree with them that God can't do everything (hear me out!). I tell them I even have Scripture to back it up (wait for it...)
Two things - God CAN'T fail. Hebrews 5:13b, For God has said, “I will never fail you." And He CAN'T lie! Hebrews 6:18a, So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie.
And when you think about those two things - REALLY think about them - understanding the Truth contained therein, it's no wonder that we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.
Meditate on this. Let it sink deep into your soul and spirit. He CAN'T fail and it's IMPOSSIBLE for God to lie. So that means EVERYTHING He has said to you will come to pass. Selah
Can you dare to believe what God can't do?
Prayer:
Father,
Thank You for Your faithfulness to us in spite of our shortcomings and our own failures. Open our eyes and our hearts to see Your unwavering Truth in all You say and do. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
