Living in the Possibility Realm

Believing is the key to stepping into the Possibility Realm and seeing God’s Word manifest in your life.

Luke 1:37 says, “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” One translation says, “No promise from God will be impossible of fulfillment.”

The Possibility Realm begins when we stop allowing our present circumstances to determine what we believe is possible.

Mary received a word from God that seemed impossible in the natural. Yet her response was, “Be it unto me according to thy word” (Luke 1:38). Then Luke 1:45 tells us, “Blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.”

Notice the connection: she believed, and there was a performance.

Peter faced a similar situation in Luke 5. He had worked all night and caught nothing. His experience told him it wasn’t working. His circumstances gave him no reason to expect anything different. But when Jesus spoke, Peter said, “Nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net” (Luke 5:5).

Peter chose the Word over his experience. That’s faith. Faith doesn’t deny what is happening. Faith simply refuses to give your circumstances more authority than God’s Word.

And this is why hearing the Word is so important. Luke 5:15 says the multitudes came “to hear, and to be healed.” They didn’t just want miracles; they wanted teaching. They came to hear and listen.

Many people go to gatherings trying to get a miracle when they should also be listening to learn how to live. The Word teaches you how to believe, how to think, how to respond, and how to live when your circumstances contradict what God has said.

So stop allowing your present circumstances to determine what you believe is possible.

Believe the Word. Receive the promise. Act on what God said.

There is a Possibility Realm available to the person who believes.
