“…With men this is impossible, but WITH GOD ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE” – Matthew 19:26b

Our Father-God is the GOD of DIVINE POSSIBILITIES: “But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but WITH GOD ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE” (Matt.19:26). Following the departure of a rich young ruler, who refused to give up his riches and possessions to follow Jesus, our Lord told His disciples that it is nearly impossible for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God – likening it to a camel passing through the eye of a needle. The disciples were “greatly astonished” asking "Who then can be saved?" (v.25b). Their astonishment stemmed from the cultural belief that wealth was a sign of God’s favour. If the blessed couldn't enter, who could? Our Lord Jesus Christ immediately corrected their human perspective in verse 26, shifting the focus from human capability to divine power.

These insights could help to anchor our faith in God’s absolute Power. Verses 23-25 refer to human limitations. The camel going “through the eye of a needle” is a hyperbole illustrating that human efforts, riches, and self-reliance cannot secure salvation. The Lord then pivoted to divine Power as final reality: Salvation and breakthroughs are 100% reliant on God’s Grace and Power, not on human merit. Following from this is the Promise of Reward: Total surrender to God is never a loss. The sacrifice of earthly attachments – money, riches, wealth, relationships, possessions, positions, or pride – for Christ's sake results in a "hundredfold" blessing in this life and eternal life (vv.27-29).

Divine logic often reverses human standards; the “first” in worldly terms may be last, and the “last” – humble and dependent on God – may be first (v.30). The notion that with God, all things are possible, including salvation, does not mean God will do anything we arbitrarily demand, but rather that all things consistent with His Will – which may seem unattainable by human, medical, or financial standards – are achievable through His sovereign, supernatural intervention. Let’s Identify what we are holding onto more than God – career, security, or anxiety. Let’s surrender to follow Him fully, trusting in Supernatural Provision. When resources run out; it’s not a time to panic.

Please join me to I declare in the Name of Jesus, that:

Every "impossible" situation in my life is turning into a testimony. By Grace I surrender my earthly attachments to God's Purpose.

Doors of divine, unprecedented opportunity are opening for me right now. I am walking in divine wisdom and will not make fatal errors.

I shift from anxiety to Faith, replacing fear of failure with the confidence that God can turn any impossible situation into a testimony.

Financial and spiritual abundance are my portions as I serve the Lord. I have broken free from the snare of greed and fear.

God is making a way for me where there seems to be none. My life is yielding a hundredfold, for I am a child of the God of all Possibilities.
