"Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'" - Matthew 19:26
Hear the voice of the Lord in your trials and tribulations, for God does indeed specialize in the impossible!
Just as He asked the widow to offer the last of her meal, God calls on you in your moment of scarcity, urging you to trust in His infinite abundance.
Your extremity becomes the very stage upon which God showcases His might and mercy.
Imagine, if you will, the widow at Zarephath.
With nothing left but a handful of flour, she was called to first make a cake for the prophet Elijah.
It was not the wealthy, but this very widow, teetering on the brink of despair, whom God chose to bless profoundly.
In her obedience, her jar of flour did not run out, just as God promised — a testament that what is impossible for man is possible for God.
And remember, when the masses were hungry, Jesus did not call upon the stores of the rich but took the humble offering of five loaves and two fishes from a boy.
What seemed insufficient became more than enough to feed thousands, with baskets to spare.
This is the economy of Heaven — where your little becomes much in the hands of the Master!
Do not be dismayed by the barrenness of your current situation, much like Sarah in her old age.
God's promises are not hindered by human limitations.
For where there is faith, there is a multiplication of grace, and where there is surrender, there is the manifestation of His glory.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, in our moments of doubt and scarcity, remind us that You are the God of abundance.
Help us to offer what little we have to You, trusting that You will transform it into more than we could ever imagine.
May our faith always rise above the facts, as we walk in the assurance of Your divine provision. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Jesus In Your Storm - Jesus does not make lessons in faith easy. He seeks to perfect your faith. Sooner or later, the real Jesus will require you to look straight in the eye of the impossible and believe God for His power. Consider when the Lord sent His disciples to cross the Sea of Galilee. He does not come in daylight. He comes at night in the midst of a violent storm. Jesus comes to the disciples in the middle of the sea, in the middle of a storm, in the middle of the night to teach them how to walk on water
