What is impossible with man is possible with God

The human being is full of limitations, we can not achieve everything we want, even our own life is limited because one day we will die. Our thoughts are so limited that many times we can not understand the things of God, in short, many things are impossible for us, but the good news is that despite us having so many limitations and imperfections, we can rest on a perfect God to which there is nothing impossible.

These limitations that we face daily often produce in us feelings of frustration and impotence. We try to understand life with our own strength, to solve our problems by our own wisdom, and to overcome every situation by our own abilities. However, sooner or later, reality confronts us with the truth: we are not self-sufficient. This recognition, far from being negative, opens the door to something greater, because it invites us to lift our eyes toward the One who transcends every boundary of human capability.

Of course, when we say that nothing is impossible for God, this is demonstrated when we read the Bible, we realize all the miracles and great wonders that God has done through all time, and we can not fail to mention the more great wonder that God has done in us, which is the transformation of our hearts.

Throughout Scripture we find endless testimonies of the divine power manifested in situations that, from a human perspective, had no solution. The opening of the Red Sea, the resurrection of Lazarus, the walls of Jericho collapsing, or the sun standing still in the days of Joshua—each of these extraordinary events points us to a God who operates outside the limits of human logic. But even more extraordinary than all these miracles is the inner work He performs in us when He changes our hearts of stone into hearts sensitive to His voice. It is there that we truly witness the power of the impossible becoming possible.

The Bible tells us a story well known to us, that of the rich young man, and that is where Jesus says that it is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven, so his disciples are impressed and pronounce the following words:

26 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27 Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
Luke 18:26-27

In verse 27 we find the center of this article: “There is nothing impossible for God.” It is good that we understand this, grasped by the will of our Creator. For God there is nothing impossible, since He is Creator of everything, there is no difficult thing that God can not do, there are no obstacles that God can not overcome, there are no strongholds that God can not destroy.

When we meditate on these words of Jesus, we are reminded that salvation itself is a miracle that cannot be produced by human merit. No amount of wealth, effort, or wisdom can open the doors of eternal life. Only the grace and power of God can transform a person to the point of making them capable of entering His kingdom. This truth strengthens our faith because it teaches us that, although our condition is fragile, the divine ability is limitless.

Dear brother and friend, our God is strength in the day of anguish, is refuge in the most cruel tempest, is the strong indestructible rock, the Bible says that He is the strong of Israel, the mighty of Jacob, the true vine, the rose of Sharon, the rock that gave drink to the Israelites in the desert, the manna that descended from heaven, pillar of fire and column of clouds, the light of this world, the water that leaps to eternal life, the most impressive that has crossed this world, the faithful counselor, omnipotent God. And I assure you that in this simple paragraph I can not describe all the power of God, even, it would take me eternity of eternities and even then I could not describe His immense goodness and power. Glory to God!

Knowing all this, the believer can walk with confidence, even in moments when circumstances seem immovable. What is impossible for us is not a barrier for the Lord. He opens doors, heals wounds, restores lives, and lifts up the fallen. No prayer is too small, no battle too great, no dream too unreachable. Our task is to trust, to remain firm, and to believe that the God who created the universe continues working powerfully in our lives today.
