ONLY THING GOD CANNOT DO IS…
There is none like God. He is the only God that makes a way where there is no way. God alone reverses the irreversible. God is the capable and only God which shares none of His name with gods under heaven. He is the King of kings; the Lord of lords. King David testified, “The Lord sat enthroned at the Flood, and the Lord sits as King forever.” (Psalm 29:10)
Jehoiachin had been in captivity for thirty-seven years when God raised his head and brought him out of captivity. It is written, “Now it came to pass in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth day of the month, that Evil-Merodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah and brought him out of prison.” (Jeremiah 52:31) God used Evil-Merodach, the king of Babylon and son of Nebuchadnezzar, to lift the head of Jehoiachin. Regardless of circumstances behind man’s captivity God alone, at His appointed time will raise man out of captivity. God will use anyone to lift man out of every challenge that is keeping man’s head down. God alone is more than able to change man’s story as a prisoner in the hand of persecutor to become one that is presiding over persecutors. Evil-Merodach was in the hand of God to lift the head of Jehoiachin out of captivity. It is certain that when God remembers, He also rescues.
It is written for our learning, “The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, Like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.” (Proverbs 21:1) God turned the heart of Evil-Merodach to rescue Jehoiachin. God also made Evil-Merodach to change the garment of Jehoiachin from garment of prisoner to the garment that is fit enough to be eating regularly before the king all the days of his life. God is true to perform, and He performs with perfection.
Think of it, the only thing which God cannot do is: God cannot FAIL. With God, there is nothing which God is incapable of doing and His capability has no measure. It is the same God that visited Daniel when Daniel was in lions den as a fresh meat. It was the wickedness of man’s agenda to terminate the life of Daniel before his appointed time on earth. God caused the lions not to have appetite for Daniel as a fresh meat in the den of starved lions. Abiding and dwelling in capable God is certain for man’s deliverance in the face of militating force against man’s life.
In your captivity challenges, are you praying but not watching? Jesus in His word repeatedly warned to watch and pray but not asked for prayer alone. Watch and pray demands waiting patiently before God. To watch and pray demands man to trust and hope but not only trusting. Jeremiah 17:7 buttressed, “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord.” In captivity challenge, keep on watching and praying by waiting patiently; by trusting and hoping for God’s divine intervention. God hears, He is a prayer-answering God. God is a gracious God. It is important to know and make it a note in your heart to get understanding about God’s character as described in Isaiah 64:4, “For since the beginning of the world Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits for Him.” God is true to His word, He performs to perfect! Believe and behave by knowing that God will convert man’s challenge to a glorious change. Stand in faith so that faithful God will show on your behalf. With faith God is pleased, without faith God is not pleased. Take note in His word, “When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.” (Proverbs 16:7) Jehoiachin was in captivity for thirty-seven years when enemy, the Evil-Merodach king of Babylon had enough peace to bring prison captivity to an end in the life of Jehoiachin.
With God, there is nothing which God is incapable of doing and His capability has no measure. With faith, God is more than able to see you through. God alone is Jehovah Sharma that answers to His Name. The only thing God cannot do is: God cannot fail!
