Cultivating faith that receives, believes, and steps into the impossible.
She surrendered her plans for His purpose,
Trusting the unseen beyond what was known.
Anchored in His unshakable word,
She embraced His promises as her own.
She walked confidently in the God who makes the impossible–possible.
Friend, what if every word God speaks to you carries within it the very power to bring itself to pass? How might this revelation shift the way you receive His promises and step into His purposes?
Much is happening, and I believe the children of God are experiencing a titanic shift in the atmosphere. The LORD is speaking, intimately courting us, His Bride. And we enjoy His lavish love as we walk with Him in the Garden.
In His kindness, He is weaving all things together, threading grace through every moment, sorting each piece in the most loving and beautiful way. Assignments are coming into focus, and hearts are being filled.
Oh, how glorious, how magnificent it is to walk in Him—to flow in the Spirit at the cadence that continually whispers GRACE and PEACE. Today, I want us to rest in the power and efficacy of the Word.
What sheer delight to find our hand in His, to step fully into the inheritance prepared for us. May we walk in Him, receiving, abiding, and possessing all He died to give us.
Let’s dig in⛏️
Our pastor broke down this verse, and I've been soaking in it for a couple of months: “For nothing will be impossible with God.” Luke 1:37.
The word nothing in Luke 1:37 might surprise you. It actually is ῥῆμα rhēma, translated to mean “no rhema.” Rhema biblically means freshly spoken word of God.
Let that sink in!🌱
The word impossible ἀδυνατέω adynateō in the text means be unable or ability.
Our pastor presented this word so beautifully given to him:
“No freshly spoken word from God will ever come that does not contain its own ability to perform itself.”
When I heard this, my heart leaped. It is confirmation for me, and I pray it will be for you.
Consider the Scripture, “So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11.
I was reminded that the Seed requires soil, sunlight, and water, but the power and ability are in the Seed. How good is God! Our part is to receive and believe. “…Let it be to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38.
But some inquire about the soil. Doesn't it represent our hearts? Yes, Jesus revealed this in the Parable of the Sower. Beloved, we prepare the soil of our hearts as we resolve that God is good and His intentions for us are good (Hebrews 11:6). When we see Him clearly as a good Father withholding nothing from us because He has given us everything in Jesus (Romans 8:32). Then, receive the word and mix it with faith (Hebrews 4:1-10), that is: believe Him; then, there will be power from the Spirit that enables us to walk in what was freshly spoken—receiving the Kingdom that now works mightily in us.
Beloved, the Word of God is alive, full of power, and sufficient to accomplish all He has spoken. The Rhema is not empty—it carries within it the very ability to fulfill itself. As we posture our hearts in faith, receiving His freshly spoken word, we step into a divine reality where impossibilities bow to the sovereignty of our King.
What a privilege it is to walk in the rhythm of His grace, to yield to the cadence of His voice, and to live in the overflow of His presence. May we be those who prepare the soil of our hearts, mix His Word with faith, and walk in the fullness of the Kingdom at work within us.
Let it be to us according to His Word.
A final word of meditation:
“Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail. My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.”Psalms 89:33-34.
Amen.
