Why do we find ourselves under estimating what God can do? The answer to this question depends solely on the person reading this devotional. Everyone’s situation is somewhat different however, there are a few common reasons we tend to under estimate the power of God. Most common to our nature is under estimating God’s love, faithfulness, forgiveness, compassion, creativity, capacity, wisdom, power, and His presence. Let’s be clear, God can do anything! There is nothing our God can’t do except fail! Not to mention, He will never lie and the Bible inspired by God contains more promises than all of humanity can count on in a lifetime! Isaiah 55:11 confirms, “The word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it” and Psalms 40:45 speaks of God’s awe-inspiring, above-our-understanding ways; “Many, Lord my God, are the wonders you have done, the things you planned for us. None can compare with you. Were I to speak and tell of your deeds, they would be too many to declare.” God is amazing and He is able and will do amazing things in your life, marriage, family, vocation, and relationships! So, let’s rephrase the opening question: Can this very God that longs to call us His friends be the God that some of us struggle to believe, trust and worship? God wants to walk with us, talk with us, inspire us, forgive us, establish us, and encourage us. He loves us and He will always leave us in awe at His love, faithfulness, and goodness. Therefore, in this season if your marriage is falling apart, you have more bills coming in than money, you have a child(ren) gone prodigal, you have been furloughed, laid off or terminated expect great things from our great God and never make the mistake of doubting what God can do with you and through you, all for His glory and your good! Rick Warren said one time: “Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs.” Don’t underestimate God – He can do more than you think. #Periodt
