God can do anything! [+] Monday E-Devotion

Matthew 19:26
NLT

Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible."


Do you really believe that God can do anything?  Prove it.  Think through what you have seen him do and what you have experienced.  Now, spend a few minutes thinking about what others have told you God did in their lives.  

We have the proof.  God is able.  Our minds cannot hold him back.  People cannot put God in a box.  He can heal the worst diseases.  He can fixed the biggest, baddest broken situation.  Our God can do anything, and it is time for us to believe God and let Him work in and through our lives.

Here is one of The Community Core statements ... we are to get the attention of our community and while we have their attention, tell them about Jesus


You can get people's attention in many ways.  But what do you do when you have their attention?  Why not do the greatest good?  Tell them about the one who will make the biggest difference for eternity?  Here is what Jesus said about it:

John 12:32
NLT

And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.


Jesus is the one that changes lives.  It is not our job to change lives.  Pointing people to Him and opening the lines of communication is our job.  What has God done in your life that you need to tell others about?  Maybe your testimony is a bit like mine.  I love this verse ...

Luke 1:74
NLT

We have been rescued from our enemies so we can serve God without fear,


God rescued me.  How about you?  We can serve Him without fear, and we must realize that God can do anything!

Yes, God can surely do anything. But of course we always need to remember that whether He will is another question. Sadly, we do tend to sell God short, and expect too much of our selves apart from God. Good word!

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
