]]> “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” (Genesis 18:14).
A little boy was trying to roll a rock.
His father was watching from a distance.
The boy was heaving and sighing.
But he couldn’t turn the stone over.
His dad with a smile said, “Son, are you using all of your strength?”
The boy said, “Yes, Daddy, I’m using all my strength.”
And the father said, “No, you’re not because you haven’t asked me to help you. My strength is your strength.”
Sometimes we wrestle with problems and say, “I don’t know what to do.”
Our Father’s strength is ours.
Run into His.
He is standing nearby only.
There is no problem too big for Jesus to solve.
Do you believe that?
Your problem is His project!
Is there a problem too big for you to solve?
Give it to God!
He can and will handle it!

Have you ever heard someone say: “God doesn’t work that way? He would never do that.” Moses had never seen a bush that burned but did not burn up. It got his attention and it drew him to God.

]]> “I will go over and see this strange sight-why the bush does not burn up” (Exodus 3:3).
Have you ever heard someone say:
“God doesn’t work that way? He would never do that.”
Moses had never seen a bush that burned but did not burn up.
It got his attention and it drew him to God.
When Jesus appeared on the water in the middle of the night during a storm, the disciples exclaimed, “It’s a ghost!”
They had never seen a man walk on water.
This led to a great miracle-Peter walked on the water, too.
When Jesus asked Peter to catch a fish and get the coin from its mouth to pay their taxes, you can imagine what Peter must have thought about those instructions.
When Moses got to the Red Sea, he ran out of options.
God had an unexpected solution to the Israelites’ problem-He parted the Red Sea to demonstrate His power and allow the people of Israel to cross over to flee the Egyptian army.
Each of these new paradigms was a stepping-stone of an encounter with God so that the individual would experience God in a new way.
God used these times to enforce the principle that His ways are not our ways.
Whenever we try to predict that God will act in a certain way-
He changes the paradigm to keep us from becoming our own little gods.
Have you ever been guilty of judging someone for an experience they’ve had that you’ve never had?
Did you dismiss it as extreme or something not of God?
God is in the business of changing our paradigm from no personal experiences to God-experiences.
However, if you operate on a level of rigid logic, you may never have the privilege of having the God-experiences.
Keep your heart free to experience new paradigms with God.
