181. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE
1. All things are possible to him
That can in Jesus’ name believe;
Lord, I no more Thy name blaspheme,
Thy truth I lovingly receive.
I can, I do believe in Thee;
All things are possible to me.
2. ‘Twas most impossible of all
That here sin’s reign in me should cease;
Yet shall it be, I know it shall;
Jesus, I trust Thy faithfulness!
If nothing so too hard for Thee,
All things are possible to me.
3. Though earth and hell the Word gainsay,
The Word of God shall never fail;
The Lord can break sin’s iron sway;
‘Tis certain, though impossible.
The thing impossible shall be,
All things are possible to me.
4. All things are possible to God;
To Christ, the power of God in man;
To me when I am all renewed,
In Christ am fully formed again.
And from the reign of sin set free,
All things are possible to me.
5. All things are possible to God;
To Christ, the power of God in me;
Now shed Thy mighty Self abroad,
Let me no longer live, but Thee;
Give me this hour in Thee to prove
The sweet omnipotence of love.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
