1 Samuel 14:6  ‘For there is no restraint to The Lord to save by many or by few.’

DAILY READING Matthew 15:1-20; Leviticus 24-25; Ecclesiastes 1:1-11

Amazing testimonies in Israel have continually proven that God is the defender of His people. During the Yom Kippur War in 1973 one of the remarkable stories is about what happened when an Israeli tank commander found himself and his men in the middle of a mine field. The Israeli officer, Commander David Yinni was in the process of pulling his troops out of a confrontation with the Syrian army when he realized that they were trapped in a minefield. Knowing it would take a miracle for them to make it out alive, the troops began crawling on their bellies while using their bayonets to try and find the mines without setting them off. At some point, one of the soldiers uttered a heartfelt prayer. As the story goes, all of a sudden a windstorm blew in. The soldiers hunkered down until the storm subsided, and when it did, it had blown away so much of the dirt that the mines were exposed and the entire platoon managed to escape unharmed

These men knew without doubt  that God in His mercy had intervened to deliver them from possible death. What they had just witnessed beat their imagination, it was an option they never foresaw, or even thought could be possible.  Yet again God had proven Himself faithful in the defense of His people.

Often times when we find ourselves facing challenges, we tend to limit God in the way He can deliver us. In considering the available human alternatives we oftentimes rule out the divine option.

God however, is not limited to save by few or many. He can use options we never even considered. He can suddenly turn around what the enemy meant for evil to be for our good. This is why when you have prayed all you can, and done all you can do, you just stand. Stand? Yes, stand and see the salvation of The Lord with you.

At the red sea, when the children of Israel were out of options and had their back against the wall, God told them to stand and see His salvation. He parted the red sea, which was an option they never even considered.

Don’t limit God’s means and ways of deliverance. Even when it seems you have been thrown into the fire, still know that with God nothing shall be impossible. Keep declaring in faith, keep proclaiming that your God is able. Faith moves God. The faith of the three Hebrew boys was a clarion call in Heaven that made God to come down as the fourth man in the fire. Faith honors God and God honors faith.

Each time the enemy tries to get you into a fix, when he thinks he has locked all doors of escape, remember there is a God in Heaven that rules in the affairs of men. The Bible says that He sits in Heaven and laughs. When there is no way, Jesus says ‘I am the way’, He makes a way where there seems to be no way. Certainly, for Paul and Silas locked up in jail, it seemed as if there was no way out, but God did the incredible, an option they never considered! God caused an earthquake that broke the prison chains. When Peter was locked up in prison to be killed the following day, guarded by soldiers and seemingly no way to escape, an angel came right into the prison and brought him out. God is a God of miracles who can break open prison doors and break you out of any captivity. Nothing can limit God.  He can use anything and anyone to bring deliverance to you.

No matter what the situation may be or the options you think are available to you, do not limit God to your options. If He can rescue the three boys from fire, divide the red sea, shut up the mouth of lions, cause earthquakes and raise the dead, then be assured that He is not at all limited in organizing a rescue for you. What He is asking is for you to keep trusting Him. Faith is the link that keeps you connected to Heaven for a rescue operation, don’t break that link. As long as you can believe God, anything and everything is possible. To him that believes nothing shall be impossible.

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to make your Word top priority in my life, so that I can always walk by faith, and not limit you in my thinking, because with You nothing is impossible.
