Nothing Is Impossible

This morning at Crosspoint, we sang “Healer” by Hillsong United.

Here are the lyrics:

You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease
I trust in you
I believe You’re my Healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You’re my Potion
I believer You’re more than enough for me
Jesus You’re all I need
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands

And this morning as I worshiped I really tried to focus on the words. When I sang “Nothing is impossible for You,” I stopped for a moment and wondered. Do I believe that? Do I really believe that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE?

Because I don’t act like this is what I believe. I act like I believe in the existence of impossibility. Because in my day to day life, I see impossibility everywhere. A sickness that can’t be healed. A problem that can’t be solved. A friendship that can’t be mended. A goal that can’t be accomplished.

BUT I believe in the Word and throughout scripture it is stated that with God nothing is impossible.

“So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.”
Matthew 17:20

But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”
Mark 10:27

For with God nothing will be impossible.
Luke 1:37

So here’s what I am going to do. I am going to try to scratch the word “impossible” from my vocabulary, which I know will be difficult. But even more challenging, I am going to try to ban impossibility from my thoughts. Because I believe in God. Because I believe He is with me. And I believe with Him ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Even erasing the word impossible.

So who’s with me? Who is willing to look at the world overflowing with posibility? Who is willing to banish all impossibility?
