Monday 18th March 2019 Prayer Devotion
Scripture Reading:- Matthew 19:16-30
Topic:- What God Cannot Do [1]
Text:- Luke 1:37
In Jeremiah 32:17, it is stated that God is the creator of earth and heaven and there is nothing He cannot do. In Matthew 19:26 Jesus said, with God everything is possible, and not with man. Also in Mark 10:27, it was repeated that it can never be possible with man except only with God.
In all these passages, it is sure that nothing can be impossible with God. As even declared by Angel Gabriel in Luke 1:37. So, God is able to do all things but there are some things that God cannot do, and which He will never do, in which will be discussing as follows:
1. God Cannot Lie – It is established in Numbers 23:19 and Romans 4:21 that God cannot lie. Whatever that comes from the mouth of God that He will do, definitely, He will do it. And I have this to tell you that whatever He had promised to do in your life, definitely, He will do it. As heaven and earth may come to an end or pass, whatever God declare, He will do it. Though sometimes it may seem late to man but He will never deny what He says, He will do it.
2. God can never make mistake. There was a time Jesus walked on water. We thought He was making mistake but He proved that He was the creator of the water, and even made Peter to walk on it too in Matthew 14:22-32. So, God can never make mistake whatever you are passing through, since He cannot make mistake, definitely it will soon be over and you will definitely know the reason why it was allowed by God. It is for your own good. So, believe with me and accept that as God cannot lie so also He cannot make mistake.
3. God will never do what is expected from you to do i.e. what is humanly possible for you to do, neither can He do your work for you. For example, if you believe God for child bearing, God will not sleep with your wife to be pregnant. See 2 Kings 2:1-15.
4. God Cannot Change – It is man that changes. From childhood to youthful exuberance, from youth to an elderly/old person. Things around us too do change like, climate, nature, houses, vehicles, clothes and general things around us. But with God, nothing like that with Him. He is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever. See Malachi 3:6; James 1:17.
5. God Cannot Do Evil – It is man that does evil. In the beginning, after God created everything, most especially man, the Bible declared that all were good, i.e. no evil. It even got to the worst stage that later God declared that He regretted in creating man because he is full of evil. Devil too that was created by God too, is full of much evil. No wonder, God sought for another good way to redeem man by surrendering His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. See Genesis 1:31; James 1:13.
Prayer Points:-
1. Oh God, I know You cannot lie, whatever You have said will come to pass in my life henceforth, in the name of Jesus Christ.
2. Oh Lord God, whatever You have said concerning my life, fulfill them now to the letter, in the name of Jesus Christ.
3. Oh God, You cannot make mistake, and I know You will be good unto me, surprise me with Your miraculous now by fire, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Have A Lovely Monday!
