Jeremiah 32:27 “I am the Lord, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?"
Many times our disappointment with God's lack of action causes us to believe that God is not capable of acting on our behalf. When God seems to be severely late in arriving or answering our prayers. When God seems to be distant and uncaring in our darkest hours. When God seems to neglect our prayers for healing and we feel the emptiness of loss and grieving. Our disappointment in Him brings bitterness and resentment which blocks our ability to hope and believe in God's power.
We pray for healing, but don't really think God will answer the prayer.
We pray for life transformation, but don't really believe people ever really change.
We pray for our nation, but we really believe the world will continue to get worse and worse.
We pray because we know we are should. We pray because we still believe God exist. But we pray with little or no hope.
But God says He is the Lord of the world and nothing is impossible for God! So we have hope and we must pray in faith and believe in a God who can do anything and everything.
What area of your life has reached a place of impossibility and hopelessness? Ask God to renew your hope in His might ability to do the miraculous.
