Think of the Possibilites!

There are so many possibilities in the Kingdom of God! It is limitless. God is not hemmed in by any boundaries whatsoever. The only boundaries that could even exist are in our own minds. It is time to remove the “limited thinking” and think of the possibilities! If you ever catch yourself thinking of your impossible circumstances, that is the time to break out of the box and get a fresh outlook from God’s heavenly perspective. Jesus said and still says “All things are possible to him who believes”. Confess that you are a “believer” today. If you don’t feel like a believer it is ok. Because faith has nothing to do with your feelings – it has everything to do with God and what He has already promised. Through His precious promises we are partakers in the divine nature. One way to look at this is that when we experience the invasion of God into our earthly challenges and difficulties we actually take on that much more of the character and person of Jesus, His divine nature. When we choose to believe the truth of what God has promised it triggers a faith reaction in our inner man (the divine nature within us).

The Pharisees told Jesus that He was demon-possessed and they tried to get Him to agree with Him! Of course, Jesus replied that if he were to agree He would be a liar like them. In the same way, the devil many times tries to get us to agree with His lies that are contrary to the words of God, His promises.

So today tell the devil that he is a liar and choose to believe the promises of God! Again, it is important to remember that our faith has nothing to do with our feelings and external circumstances. It is completely about believing the promises of God. If we make His words out meditation we have a sure victory ahead! The cares of this world and high valuing of earthy things chokes out the word . . .

Matt 13:22-23
Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. 23 But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

Take an inventory of what you are meditating on throughout your days. Is it the news? Is it opinions? What is drawing your attention? If any of these things are squeezing out the word of God, make every effort to put the meditations that God values first place in your heart. Don’t allow yourself to be distracted from the riches of God’s Kingdom. When we do this, we will see the possibilities become reality!

In Psalm 1 we have a foundational promise for life. It is connected to our devotion and meditation:

Psalm 1:1-3
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
