How God Makes A Way When There Seems To Be No Way - Phil. 2:13,14

Application: Ask the Lord to perfect whatever concerns you regardless of the troubles you find yourself in. Allow the Lord to use your adversity to work patience, endurance and greater Christ-likeness in all areas of your life. (James 1:2-5)

7. God will make way when there seems to be no way when we ask the Holy Spirit and others to intercede for us. Too many people try to find the way out of their problems alone. Paul wrote, “We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints accordance with God’s will.” (Rom. 8:26,27)

Application: Ask others and God to intercede on your behalf so that you can receive the maximum benefits of intercessory assistance in your time of need. The Lord will find a way out of your fears, problems with anger, disappointments, hurts, unmet expectations or needy situation.

Maybe you are struggling to see how God might solve your financial, emotional, or social needs, but He will provide a solution for every problem if you only ask for intercessory help.

8. God will make a way when there seems to be no way when we seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and then He will provide all of our essential needs.

Too many people waste their lives using wrong priority thinking. Americans are notoriously pursuing human concepts of success but are miserable failures before God. Jesus wants us to focus on Him and kingdom and righteousness priorities. When we pursue the quantitative and qualitative expansion of His kingdom we will experience His blessings that will supernaturally affirm God’s ability to provide us with all of our physical, social, and human needs.

Order your life more around God’s priorities than your own natural tendencies to take of your own business first. Ask the Lord to guide you to ways where you can make align your lifestyle around His priorities instead of your own natural impulses and desires.

9. God will make a way when there seems to be no way when we work in collaboration with other members of complimentary spiritual gifts. Why do so many people think they can find the way out of their problem without working in synchronization with other members of Christ’s body?

Illustration: The American mentality of doing like Frank Sinatra’s song, “I did it my way” is in opposition to God’s ways for success. Paul wrote, “He gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we reach unity in the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.” (Eph. 4:11-13)

\ We cannot fully know the way of God unless we are willing to work in collaboration with other gifted members of the body of Christ. God uses a whole range of spiritually gifted people to equip us, to motivate us and to teach us what we need to know in order to come to full maturity.
