Deuteronomy 9:1 – Hear, Israel: you are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourself, cities great and fortified up to the sky,
Moses talks to the people of Israel and shows them what God is calling them to do – to take on nations greater and mightier than them, and to bring down huge, fortified cities. Has he gone crazy? No – Moses is right on the money!
The call that God has on our lives is always greater than our ability to achieve it – so that God gets glorified when the impossible takes place!
If we’re finding ourselves in a place where that which we must overcome seems impossible – then we should rejoice and not despair – because it’s exactly in that kind of climate that the power of God gets demonstrated!
He has not brought us out to let us down! He gives us impossible promises and then brings us to the place where through His power we will see them fulfilled.
