Thank you.
Is anything too hard for God? Is there a single thing that is on your mind, on your heart, on your brain today that is too hard for God?
Nothing is too hard for him. Not one thing. He is our deliverer. He is the one who heals us, who provides for us, who gives us everything that we need. In Mark 9, verses 23, it says, if you can, said Jesus, everything is possible for the one who believes.
if you can. In the verses preceding that, there was a child who was possessed with an evil spirit and his father said, if you can heal him. Do we live in the if God does this, if Jesus does this society? We do. And
We often put those barriers on ourselves. If this job works out, if this marriage works out, if these children get into a good college, if, if, if, we don't serve a god of if, we serve a god of when, when this marriage works out.
Wesleyne (:When my children get into the college that they want, when I step up into my career, when I am speaking on stages, change that small little phrase in your brain from if to when. Why? Because everything is possible for the one who believes.
Everything is possible if you believed in your heart That means it's already done. I believed in my heart I believed in my heart that my divorce was going to end in my favor. I believed that I Couldn't see it everything that I saw in front of me pointed to
not getting what I wanted. But I believed for it. I believed for it. I went in front of the same judge for 20 months, 20 months. And for 19 of those months, she ruled against me. Every single time we went to court, she ruled against me. She ruled to my ex -husband's favor.
But I still believed. I said, Lord, I know this is your battle. You have told me, you have told me that this is your fight. This is not my fight. And so I believed in my heart and I kept my faith strong. And then right at month 19, she ruled in my favor. And then at month 20, the entire divorce went in my favor.
So yes, I faced immense pressure and turmoil and I felt the enemy is hacking me in every way, spiritually, emotionally, financially, physically. The enemy was trying to have me give up. The enemy was trying to make me roll over, but my faith was strong because I believed. I didn't say,
Wesleyne (:If this divorce goes in my favor, I said when this divorce goes in my favor. I didn't say if I get everything that I'm praying for and believing for. I said when I get everything I am praying for and believing for. Change your ifs to when. God is moving even when you can't feel him, even when you can't see him, he is moving.
He is moving on your behalf. We serve a God of when, we serve a God of deliverance, we serve a God who does the things that we are asking him to do for us. So believe it in your heart, believe it in your mind and know that God is right there with you. He's walking with you and he loves you so dearly.
