Thursday Devotional - God is With Us to do the Impossible 2/24/22

I love knowing God can do the impossible!!! The “greatest” impossible feat He has accomplished is that of our salvation.

Matthew 19:23-30       “Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Truly I tell you, it is hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.  Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for the rich to enter the kingdom of God.’ When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, ‘Who then can be saved?’ Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With human beings this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’ Peter answered him, ‘We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?’ Jesus said to them, ‘Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.’”            Matthew 19:23-30

Beyond the impossible feat of saving us, God has also done the impossible to elevate the lowly, reward the sacrificial, and give an inheritance of eternal life to His followers. All of that is seen in these few verses. Maybe you even saw more!

Let’s remember that we know the true God of the impossible who has already provided the best “impossible” blessings!
