God made man in His own image and likeness. God is wonderful. Therefore when He made us, He put in us the desire to be wonderful. Every human being, sinner or saint, longs for supernaturality. Sinners seek supernaturality through drugs, cigarettes, witchcraft, etc. They want some supernatural power.
God wants to do something supernatural in us and through us. He has got a great plan for us that is much greater than we can imagine. That is why the Word of God says, “Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people”(I Pet 2:9). If our spiritual eyes are opened to see how wonderful the Lord wants our lives to be, what a difference it will make to our lifestyle!
The Lord wants to reveal Himself to us as the wonderful One every day. If God does not answer your prayer in a straight way, it means He wants to answer it in a wonderful way. Our God delights to do the impossible. Because our Lord’s name is Wonderful, He wants to do everything in a wonderful way.
One man of God says we must pray for the impossible. It is easier for God to do a difficult thing than an easy thing. Our God dwells in the realm of the supernatural. When we ask for an easy thing we are limiting the power, the ability and the glory of Jesus. We are grieving the Holy Spirit. We are doubting the power, the generosity and the love of our God. In fact, we are tying the hands of God. Our spiritual eyes need to be opened. Then we will not pray for small things; we will learn to pray for the impossible. We will pray for greater things and with greater faith and vigor.
