THE MESSAGE
FOR WITH GOD NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE: Luke 1:37
1.PROMISE
To experience the impossible becoming possible we must believe the promise of God . The promise of God is a revelation of His will and purpose . When we act in obedience to His will He will back us up. We can be sure that God will fufill His promises. We should not step out recklessly in attempting the impossible but should ensure that we have the promise of God in that situation.To experience the impossible we must believe the promise of God with all our heart.
SCRIPTURE REFERENCES
****************************
God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Romans 4: 17-21
As it is written: "I have made you a father of many nations." He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed--the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not.
Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, "So shall your offspring be."
Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead --since he was about a hundred years old --and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.
Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,
being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.
2.PRAYER
To experience the impossible becoming possible we must have an effectual and fervent prayer which availeth much . Elijah prayed earnestly and nature responded to his prayers. Jesus told us to pray and not give up until we get the answer.To experience the impossible we must pray fervently and persistantly.

****************************
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.
Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.
Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
He said: "In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought.
And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ’Grant me justice against my adversary.’
"For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ’Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think,
yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’"
And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust judge says.
And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?
I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
3.PRAISE
To experience the impossible becoming possible we must praise and worship God even in impossible situations.Paul and Silas praised God in the midst of an impossible situation.They praised God when they were in agony inside a prison. God responded to their praise and delivered them.To experience the impossible we must praise God with our whole heart even in impossible situations.

****************************
After they had been severely flogged, they were thrown into prison, and the jailer was commanded to guard them carefully.
When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.
Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose.
May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands,
