Throughout our lives we will face many challenges and trials that test our faith. Sometimes these situations may seem so impossible that we may wonder how it is even possible to continue on. When faced with a seemingly impossible task, first thing people often do is compare their task to their own natural abilities. This can cause a person to never attempt to continue on or become overconfident and jump into something that they are incapalble of doing on their own. It is not until; they are halfway up their mountain that some people realize that they need more strength than what they have.
Fortunately, through salvation we become children of the Most High God and partners in His divine plan. This partnership allows us the right to tap into God’s divine resources. These resource are not merely financial provision but mental, emotional and spiritual substinance that when merged with out spirits, gives us the strength to achieve any task.
God is fully aware of the frailty of our human nature. It was He who after all created this body. He knows the limitations of man, having set those limits Himself. God purposely placed limits to man’s capabilities so that He would be need to partner with God to succeed in life. We need each other. On their own, neither a man nor a woman can produce a child, but when they unite together, they can produce the desired result. (?) In the same way, we need God and He needs us.
In order for God to achieve anything on this earth, He needs to partner with man. (study) Luke 10:2, “And He was saying to then, ‘The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few; therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into the harvest.’” In this verse we can conclude that as Lord of the harvest, it is God’s desire to reap His harvest. However, He has a problem. The harvest is ripe but He has no one to gather it. We may wonder, if He is so mighty, why doesn’t He do it Himself, but God has set up a divine partnership that forces him to coordinate His plans for the earth with those whom He created to inhabit it. It is God’s responsibility to mastermind and provide for the plan, just as it is the job of the Lord of the harvest to plan and provide for the harvest. But when it comes to actually carrying out His plans, He must cooperate with Mankind.
It is in God’s best interest to make sure that you have everything you need to achieve the task ahead of you.
No matter our situation or circumstances we can overcome every trial and tribulation through Christ. With Him on our side we can rise above every storm that comes our way. Romans 8:37 says, “But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.” In this verse Paul is saying that no matter the circumstances or situations that we may face, we can easily overcome them. Paul is not saying that we will barely make it through by a stroke of good luck, but that we shall “overwhelmingly conquer” through Christ Jesus. That means that we can overcome any problem as if it were not even a challenge.
