It is Still Possible!!

In the city of Bethany, a man named Lazarus was sick. His sisters: Mary and Martha worried about his health sent for Jesus that his beloved was sick. Jesus quickly replied, “That sickness is not unto death but God has allowed it so that He will glorify Himself and His Son, Jesus Christ.” Mary and Martha might not have understood the message of Jesus, just as I least understood even after repeated perusals. Did it mean Jesus was coming immediately or was He simply reminiscing aloud mystery beyond human understanding?  We could not understand because His thoughts and ways are different from ours. A grasped of any kind was a revelation from above. In the same vein, when we pray to God to do certain things – something new, He always respond with a new instruction [Evangelist Mike Murdock]. Could it be He had already responded and awaiting outward manifestation? It could be what He was about to do was far greater than your request. Jesus still stayed extra two days after hearing that SOS message. Did that mean the message was not important or did not require prompt reaction? Was Lazarus, asleep or dead? (John 11:1ff).

However, Jesus came to Bethany four days after Lazarus was laid in the grave and many Jewish sympathizers came to comfort Mary and Martha on the loss of their beloved brother.  Martha ran and met Jesus as He came into their domain and said, “If you were here my brother would not die, but I know that even now [4 days after he was buried] whatever you asked of God, He will give you” [John 11:21-22]. Waah, what an implicit faith and trust on Jesus? Jesus said to her “your brother shall rise again” but Martha said, yes on the resurrection morning! She was well tutored on the bible events and also had knowledge of the second coming of Christ. Jesus released a revelation message: “I am the resurrection and the life.” It does not matter whether He is dead or alive; had been buried for four days and had started to decompose in the grave, I am the totality of the kingdom of God now on earth, he will rise. I am never late and/ or delayed; operates according to heaven’s time and season. That season, Jesus was present and full of grace; something uncommon was about to happen. God’s glory was about to manifest and God would glorify His son, Jesus Christ. Numerous sympathizers who came for condolence became eye witnesses of the changed life and resurrection; would carried the life testimony of God’s kingdom on earth. It’s still possible!

The man born blind and then 40 years old could see only because Jesus Christ was present and God’s power to heal was there. It is still possible that you can see after 40 years of spiritual and physical blindness. For 38 years, a man with infirmity was deteriorating at the Lake of Bethesda and the presence of Jesus healed him. It does not matter anymore whether the angels were present to stir the water or not; what the medical reports must have said about his situation or diagnosed as the cause of illness. Whether it was generic [runs in the family] or the outcome of demonic manipulations to torment and bound him. It’s still possible you can pick your mat and go home, rejoicing.

In a failed economy one can start up a new business, engage workers and experienced turn around. It’s still possible in the society that abhors ideal marriage and good family life, to find cleaved couples have successful marriage, experienced deep sense of love for each other and raise their children in the fear of the Lord and with tough love. It’s still possible for that incompatible and nagging spouse to turn around and become a sweet companion; those stubborn children to become obedient and respectful to their parents and society. You will be accepted in places you were rejected and sought your help in solving a crucial problem. God can do anything He wants to do just because He is God. Let us keep our minds open and always expecting the best in the midst of life’s worst situation. God has not turned His back on us; He is still and always will be with us. Since He’s always present, it’s still possible……..You will rise from your pits above your situation and live to your fullness.

There is nothing too hard for God. Whatever you believe God for, always remember that God keeps promises; does exceedingly beyond our requests and desires. It may not be our way or our time but be patient and wait expectantly for His time. His delays are not refusals or denials. God can put you on hold, don’t hang up on Him; He will soon revert to you. It’s good enough to believe on medical reports and natural laws but God’s word is higher than heaven and earth and is final say on any matter.

Elizabeth was advanced in age yet gave birth to a son; Mary, a virgin was pregnant and gave birth to a Son of the Most High God. The three Hebrew boys emerged from the furnace unscratched; someone diagnosed with terminal disease still lives and walking around happily. Do not ask how it shall happen but simply believe that with God all things are possible. Our God turns impossibility into possibility; a nobody into extraordinary person. God shall turn your situation around; this is your season of new heights………you’re the next evidence of God’s favor. It’s still possible you’ll rise again!!!
