There are some things that God cannot do, because He has bound Himself within certain limitations so as not to interfere with your power of choice. Just like Adam and Eve in the Garden, everyone is given a chance to choose. In fact, when all is said and done, that’s the main reason we’re here in the first place: to learn how to make decisions under God’s guidance. You have to make the decision; He’s not going to force you to do His will. “Whoever will may come” (Revelation 22:17). God never forces Himself on anyone. He just gives people the opportunity to receive His blessings. If they refuse them, it’s their loss. “Each of us shall give account of himself to God” (Romans 14:12). We cannot hide behind others when it comes to our majesty of choice. God wants you to make your own choice according to your faith, not somebody else’s. He wants you to learn to trust Him personally, and to not always lean on others. No one else can make your choices for you, not even God. “According to your faith let it be to you” (Matthew 9:29). — Matthew 9:29 - Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.” Matthew 9:22 - But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. — Jesus, please help me to have faith, please help me to choose to trust you, choose to desire your Word, choose to love you.
