There is nothing He Cannot Fix....

"Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you,
that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong
your days in the land which ye shall possess." Deuteronomy 5:33 KJV

For the next 198 days I will be posting a PROMISE from God, to His people.
God is not a man that He should lie. (Numbers 23:19, "God is not a man,
that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does
he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?"NIV)

Sometimes when the world seems to overtake us and we are facing trials and
it seems like all that is ahead of us is a brick wall, we give way to fear.
The Word of God also tells us that God is not the one that gives us a spirit
of fear. (Romans 8:15, "For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a
slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we
cry, "Abba, Father."NIV) When you see that brick wall, remember your
Father's covenant with you and rest in it. (Haggai 2:5, "This is what I
covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt. And my Spirit remains among
you. Do not fear."NIV) Do not look at the wall, but instead, lean on the
promises of God. This is why it is so very important to know the Word. In
Ephesians 6 it tells us to take up the sword of truth, which is the Word.
It is a weapon. And the weapons of OUR warfare are not carnal.
(2 Corinthians 10:4, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but
mighty in God for pulling down strongholds," NKJV) The minute problems
overtake us, we panic and try to figure out how WE can fix them. The enemy
will tell you that you created this mess and now YOU have to clean it up.
The enemy will always take our Heavenly Father out of the equation. God
knows the "flesh"....he became flesh and died for us. This act took all the
weaknesses of the flesh to the cross, crucified them, and paid their price!
So don't ever think that when a huge problem arises, even if you caused it,
you are somehow away from Jesus. He knows and He has already taken care of
it!! Go boldly before the Throne and tell him you goofed big time and that
you cannot fix the mess. (Hebrews 4:16, "Let us therefore come boldly unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in
time of need." KJV) Repent of your misdeeds and turn the reins over to Him.
Anything you ask of the Father in Jesus name, He is faithful to give you.
(John 14:13, "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that
the Father may be glorified in the Son.") (John 14:27, "Peace I leave with
you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not
let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." NIV) ( Deuteronomy 4:31,
"for the LORD your God is a merciful God, He will not forsake you nor
destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which He swore to
them."NKJV).

As you can see, His Word is a comfort and a fortress in our time of trouble.
So ALWAYS turn to him and NEVER lean on your own understanding of the
situation. (Proverbs 3: 5-6, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And
lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He
shall direct your paths.NKJV) How you see your problem and how your Father
sees your problem are two totally different things. Now be honest, who
would you rather see solve your problem? You or God? I will pick God every
time. Believe me, you will see a solution come from a place that you would
NEVER have thought of. It will take a little practice and a lot of FAITH,
but once you have gone through it a couple of "brick wall" situations, you
will discover that His ways are truly not your ways and there is nothing
that He cannot fix....Patti
