Your parents always tell you that you can be who you want to be, do whatever you want to do, etc. We always hear those phrases, but what is the meaning behind those words?

Today in church, Pastor Copeing touched on a lot of important details behind that. We're halfway through 2011! We have all had setbacks, disappointments, and somethings that look IMPOSSIBLE to overcome. But we are still here because of God's grace and mercy. The reason why our parents say that all things are possible is because since we are followers of God, we BELIEVE in him. If you have faith, God will carry you through anything.

Three points that Pastor touched on, in order to get through any trouble you are going thru is:

#1. Do whatever God asks you to do.

No matter how crazy his requests may be. He has a reason for it. You must take on his mindset, and say, "God, if you want me to do this, consider it done!"

#2. Carry out the principles of God. 

In Matthews 21:22, it talks about carrying out the commands of God. Do not ever remove God from the equation! Challenge yourself: If God spoke it, carry it out!!!

#3. You have to claim it by faith!

In  Hebrews 11:1, it talks about claiming. Faith is believing that God is fully capable and able!  Are you faithful and carrying out his commandments? 

Nothing shall be impossible (Luke 1:37). Don't worry about the haters! Stand firm on His promises. As long as we have God on our side, we can do all things, BUT fail!

Happy Father's Day! Bless and be blessed! :)
