Impossible vs Possible

God is never limited by impossibilities!
The only thing impossible for God: HEB 6:18 It is impossible for God to lie. Why? Not because He lacks power but because it is against His nature.

The impossible is possible with God because Jesus said, “With God all things are possible.”
ROM 4:17 God calls the things which are not as though they were.
JER 32:17 There is nothing too hard for You.
JOB 42:2 I know that You can do everything.
GEN 18:14 Is there anything too hard for the Lord?.

You have unlimited possibilities with God on your side:
MAT 17:20 Nothing will be impossible for you.
MAT 19:26 With God all things are possible.
MAT 21:22 All things, whatsoever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.
MAR 9:22 All things are possible to the one who believes.
MAR 11:24 What things soever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
JOH 15:16 Whatever you will ask of the Father in My Name, He will give to you.
PHI 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.

You do the possible; God will do the impossible.
You do the natural; God will do the supernatural.
You do what you can do, God will do what you can't do.
Between the impossible and the possible - stands Jesus Christ!

What matters is what God says!

1. You say it's impossible - God says: All things are possible (Luk 18:27).
2. You say  I'm too tired' - God says: I will give you rest (Mat 11:28-30).
3. You say nobody really loves me - God says: I love you ( Joh 3:1 6; 3:34).
4. You say I can't go on  - God says: My grace is sufficient  (2Co 12:9; Psa 91:15).
5. You say I can't figure things out - God says: I will direct your steps (Pro 3:5- 6).
6. You say I can't do it -  God says: You can do all things (Phi 4:13).
7. You say I'm not able - God says: I am able (2Co 9:8).
8. You say It's not worth it - God says: It will be worth it (Rom 8:28).

11. You say I'm afraid - God says: I have not given you a spirit of fear (2Ti 1:7).

7 Reasons Why the Bible Is Easy to Understand

1. Because it is a revelation (2Tim. 3:16-17; 2Pet. 1:21; Heb. 1:1).

2. Because of its repeated truths (2Cor. 13:1). All one needs to do with the Bible is find out what God says, where He says it and then believe it.

3. Because it is written in the most simple human terms possible. If it is understood as it is written then it is a simple book (Lk. 24:25,45).

4. Because God is the author (2Tim. 3:16-17; 2Pet. 1:21). A deity that could not express himself as clearly as man does would not be the living, all-knowing God. One who could, yet would not make himself clear and sought to hide from man the very truth he expected to judge him by would be an unjust person. A deity who had to be interpreted every time he spoke would not be worthy of our consideration. The fault in Bible complications is not with God or the Bible, but with men who refuse to believe what God says and think we have to interpret what He says in order to get the meaning.

5. Because it was given by God to be understood by the most simple and trusting people (Dt. 29:29; Mt. 11:25; 13:19-23; 2Cor. 4:1-6; 2Tim. 3:16-17).

6. Because simply reading and believing is all that is required to understand it (Ps. 1:2-3; 2Tim. 2:15; Mt. 11:15).

7. Because 80% of it is plain history, promises, and simple instructions on how to live. The other 20 percent is simple prophecy, or history written beforehand.
