I found this posting at the CCL website www.christianculture.com: The Realm of Possibilities? |
“With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.”
The qualifying word for accomplishing the impossible is the little word “with.” If you’re with men, you’ll never experience the impossible; but if one is with God, impossibilities become realities. The instrument that links us up to this omnipotence is called faith. Faith makes the impossible possible.
But faith operates only in the sphere of the will of God as found in the Word of God. It is not possible to exercise faith for anything beyond the will of God. Faith functions in cooperation with God. So, if an individual is with God, he can be all that he ought to be and do all that he ought to do.
Augustine said, “Give what thou commandest, then command what thou wilt.”
“Within the realm of possibilities” is an expression never used by those who have cast their lot with God.
