It’s Never Impossible

Today’s Scripture: For with God nothing shall be impossible. Luke 1:37

Song To Meditate on: Nothing is Impossible - The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxKuDu2Vu1k)

It was Audrey Hepburn that said “Nothing is impossible; the word itself says 'I'm possible'!”

Maybe you have some dreams and goals and you are doubting because you do not see the resources to make them come to pass. Maybe you have tried and you were not successful the first time around so you are ready to give up.

Ladies, I want to let you know that nothing is impossible. Maybe you want to write a book or travel the world or start a business or become a preacher or a teacher. Maybe the Lord has laid something on your heart and you are fearful but ladies as today’s scripture tells us “with God nothing shall be impossible.”

You see ladies; success is 90 percent about believing, Jesus once told a man who brought his child for healing that anything is possible once he believe. (Mark 9:23).

· Mary thought it was impossible for her to have a virgin birth

· Esther thought it was impossible for her to go before the king

· Jeremiah thought it was impossible for him to speak to Nations

· Saul thought it was impossible for David to kill Goliath

· Moses thought it was impossible for him to speak to Pharaoh

· The Jews thought it was impossible for a Messiah to come out of Nazareth

All these things were considered impossible however they were all successful. They were successful because God made them possible. Therefore ladies whatever it is that you hope to achieve today just believe knowing that nothing is impossible with God.

Have A God Filled Day Ladies

Let’s Pray

Oh Lord we thank you that nothing is impossible once we believe. Increase our faith today so that we can achieve our goals for your glory.

In Jesus Name

Amen

Lift Up Your Head

Today’s Scripture: Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Psalm 27:7 (NIV)

Song To Meditate on: Lift Up Your Head – Damita Haddon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poa_s-Ap98s)

In New Year’s Eve service a lady was testifying about what God did for her in 2013. She testified that she baptized in 2013 and have found such joy in living this new life for Christ. She told us that before, she was moving up the corporate ladder but she was angry, miserable and empty however since she turned her life over to Christ she has experienced joy in many areas of her life. Ladies I too have this testimony, I did not have such peace and joy until I became a Christian. I am not saying that there are not times when I am unhappy or feel down but I now know that I can pray and ask God to deal with my issues so I don’t worry about them, as such unhappiness does not last long because I have learnt to trust God and depend on his promises to me.

Ladies, we have entered into a new year and it is the perfect time for a new beginning, it is a perfect time for reflection and for setting new goals. This year I am encouraging you to lift up your heads (open up your hearts) and allow Christ to come in. Include growing spiritually as one of your goals for 2014. The Lord will work on your behalf if you allow him to. You do not have to live in depression or unhappiness. You do not have to always be worry about every little thing. All you have to do is to allow God to come in to your heart, build your relationship with him and trust him to fulfill his promises over your lives.

My prayer for all of you this year is that:

· You will grow spiritually

· God will grant you good success

· God will grant you peace

· You will dominate in every area of your life

· You will know your purpose and walk in to it

· You will prosper in every area of your life, physically, emotionally and spiritually

Ladies 2014 is a year of new opportunities, open doors and victory. Make the best of it, God has already make provision for you.
