God Calls Those Things Which Do Not Exist As Though They Did

God, Who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did - Romans 4:17.

            Abraham believed the God who calls those things which do not exist in our life as though they did and so he did not consider his own body that was very old and Sarah’s womb that was dead. Contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, “So shall your descendants be.” And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb  - Romans  4:18,19. 

            Abraham was not weak in faith but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God and believed that He who had promised him that he will be the father of many nations was also able to perform. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. And therefore it was accounted to him for righteousness - Romans 4:20-22.        

            Let us thank God who calls those things which do not exist in our life as though they did. Like Abraham, let us grow strong in faith, give glory to God irrespective of our circumstances and believe that God was able to do what He had promised. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen - Hebrews 11:1. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says -  Mark 11:23. For nothing will be impossible with God - Luke 1:37.                                                                                  

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Nothing will be impossible with You. You are the God who calls those things in our life which do not exist in our life as though they did. We believe that You are able to do what You have promised us. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
