“ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IF A PERSON BELIEVES.” MARK 9:23
“THE DISCIPLES WERE ASTOUNDED, ‘then who in the world can be saved, THEY ASKED. JESUS LOOKED AT THEM INTENTLY AND SAID, ‘ humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God.’ ” MARK 10:26-27
To truly believe is to accept something as true, genuine or real. In the bible the Greek word “pisteuo”(believe) means “to be convinced of something”, ” to place confidence in“, or to “entrust (especially one’s spiritual well-being to Christ).” In order to truly believe in Jesus, it means so much more than just making a mental acknowledgement. Our belief is to become faith and a way of life. It is to become a complete and total surrender of our lives to him. He becomes our lives. He becomes the way we talk, the way we walk and the way we think. We are willing to follow him wherever he leads us. We begin to rely on him, trust him, and endure in the face of doubts. Humanly speaking we cannot do this. We do not have the strength or the power to be able to do these things. However, Mark 10 tells us that all things are possible with God. Our faith becomes so much more than the human definition of believing. Our faith takes us to whole new levels, and we begin to believe in spiritual things, things unseen. We are to build upon our faith each day. Remember, all things are possible with our God in heaven! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
