Jesus never asked us to do the impossible...He asked us to believe the impossible. Many get bogged down in defeated thinking and view life through their ability...if you do this, you will be overwhelmed, exhausted, and certainly will not walk in victory. You do not have the ability to overcome...but the One Who lives in you does...and He has overcome (Jn16:33).  John 14:13-14, God says to ask for anything in His name-He will do whatever we ask in His name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. Get a revelation of this sweet promise! If your prayers line up with God's promises then expect God to answer, but He will do it His way...not yours. Choose to believe what Jesus said, don't allow your feelings to talk you out of God's promises; His promises never change, but your feelings do. Acknowledge what you see-don't be anxious, but with prayer, petition, and thanksgiving present your request to God...then His peace, which you can't comprehend, will guard your heart and your mind (Philippians 4:6-7). You can't, but He can, and He will! Your part...believe He can. Blessings friend!
