7 scriptures that build faith for the impossible

 Gratisography

In our lives, there will be times where we face circumstances and challenges that may seem impossible to overcome. If you're thinking that God allowed such a painful and heart-wrenching experience for you to deal with, you're wrong. God does allow big challenges to come to us, but He never asks us to solve them ourselves. Instead, Christ comes to our rescue and battles and conquers them for us.

You may have faced a big financial struggle, a sickness, a broken relationship, a threat to your business or job, or an accident or calamity that put your life or the life of a loved one in danger. We all have had our share of audaciously scary mountains that we had to climb, but be reminded that, as you climb that mountain, God goes with you.

Just as God went with Moses into the wilderness, Joshua into battle with great kingdoms, David into kingship and the apostles into persecution and trial, God goes with you. He calls us to put our faith not in our own abilities but in His abilities. Here are seven scriptures that will help us build faith for the impossible by reminding us of God's faithfulness.

James 1:2-3 "Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness." (Pixabay)
