How GOD makes impossible possible :

Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”

‭‭

Luke 1:37

For nothing will be impossible with god.

Matthew 17:20

So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.”

‭‭

Matthew 19:26

But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

‭‭( Mark 10:27 , Luke 18:27 )

Philippians 4:13

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭11‬-‭12‬ ‭

Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
