Thoughts on Today's Verse...

A desperate father came to Jesus with a request for help and said, IF you can, Jesus, please help! IF? IF!

Jesus told the desperate father everything is possible for the person who believes. We say we believe that our Father in heaven will act for our best eternal good and the eternal best good of our loved ones in need as we love him and follow his purposes in our lives (Romans 8:28). We say that we believe, so let's ask in faith with a commitment like that of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These three friends believed that God could spare them from the fiery furnace and confidently told King Nebuchadnezzar, "We serve a God who is able to deliver us, but even if he does not, we will not worship other gods who are false!" (Daniel 3:16-18) Let's be committed to the enormity of what's possible for us in Jesus when we believe!

My Prayer...

Now to our God, who we believe can do exceedingly and abundantly more than we can ask or imagine, to that God be glory, both now as well as forever and ever. In the glorious name of Jesus, we praise you. Amen. (Prayer adapted from Ephesians 3:20-21)
