Trust God to Do Great Things 
By Rick Warren

Jesus looked at them and said, With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” Matthew 19:26 (NIV)

Everything is possible with God.

Jesus looked at them and said, With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible’” (Matthew 19:26 NIV).

When I was pastor at Saddleback Church, we launched the PEACE Plan. PEACE stands for Plant churches, Equip servant leaders, Assist the poor, Care for the sick, and Educate the next generation. What made us think we could lead thousands of other churches to go after some of the biggest problems on the planet, such as poverty, lack of education, and sickness?

The answer was—and still is—that we have a big God!

In fact, sometimes I hear people say, Who do you think you are to try to do all this?” That’s the wrong question. The real question to ask is, “Who do you think God is?”

Because our God can do anything.

Jesus said, According to your faith let it be done to you” (Matthew 9:29 NIV).

God wants to use you. He wants to bless you. He wants to do amazing things in your life. He wants you to be a world changer. But hes waiting for you to trust him.

So stop saying, I cant.” “I cant make this marriage work.” “I cant do what God wants me to do.” “I cant love those who are different than me.” Those are lies! All things are possible with God.

In the Living Bible paraphrase, Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now glory be to God, who by his mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes” (TLB).

That’s why, through these devotionals, I push you. Its because I know you have enormous potential—far beyond what you ever imagined. God wants to use you, and according to your faith, it will be done to you.

Do you know what the greatest opposition to your faith is? Its not other people. Its not critics. Its not even the devil. Its your unbelief.

You have a choice. You can choose to believe God—or not. You can choose to trust God—or not. There are many things you dont have control over. But you can choose to have faith in God.

Do you want God to do big things in your life? Then start believing.
