"ALL"
“ALL”
“I can do ALL things through Him who strengthens me”
“And we know that God causes ALL things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose..”
“The God who made the world and ALL things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to ALL people life and breath and ALL things.”
“Just as it is written, ‘Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, And which have not entered the heart of man, ALL that God has prepared for those who love Him.”
“He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us ALL, how will He not also with Him freely give us ALL things?”
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of ALL comfort, who comforts us in ALL our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”
If we are honest with ourselves, we would admit that there are times when preaching and ministry can feel overwhelming. There are meetings to attend, people to visit, counseling that needs to be done, organizing, planning, encouraging, and the never-ending sermons & lessons to prepare.
Add to that family concerns, financial worries, health issues, and spiritual growth to consider in our lives. There are days that we spend the entire day working and at the end of the day we wonder what has been accomplished.
When this scenario is played out regularly we begin to wonder if we are equipped for this job, we wonder if we are ready, and we may even wonder if we are enough.
The fact is, we are not enough, but our God is. In our weaker moments we may question whether or not God is enough. Yet, time and again, He shows Himself to be strong, He proves that He is enough. If you are struggling today, my prayer is that these verses will be a constant reminder that our God is enough.
