"Jesus looked at them intently, then said, 'Without God, it is utterly impossible. But with God everything is possible'" (Mark 10:27).
"An hour in prayer can give the believer enough power to overcome the second most powerful force in the universe," sagely declared an anonymous observer.
God's Word gives us many "exceeding great and precious promises" that confirm the truth of this wise observation - and the truth of the scriptural promise that with God everything is possible. One of these precious promises declares, "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength" (Isaiah 40:31,KJV).
Sometimes renewed strength - spiritual strength, God's strength - is all we need to face the problem or difficulty or testing or trial that confronts us.
In the gigantic tasks God has given us to do in the work of Campus Crusade for Christ, often it is the confirmed realization that with God everything is possible that keeps us going on, trusting God to do that which no man could possibly do.
God's indwelling Holy Spirit, making possible the supernatural life, constantly empowers and enables us to reach out and attempt great and mighty things for God - always an outreach that involves the needs of others more than our own personal needs, as great as they may seem to be at times.
TODAY'S ACTION POINT: "Dear Lord, give me a heart like Yours - one that reaches out to the ends of the earth, and the end of the block, with the good news of the gospel, always believing that nothing is impossible with Your help."
