Ask God For The Impossible--Sun, Stand Thou Still!



Joshua 10:12-14; James 4:2; John 16:24; Luke 18:1; 1 Chronicles 4:10; James 5:16; Psalm 3:3; James 4:10; 1 Peter 5:6-7; Philippians 4:6; Genesis 1:3; Matthew 21:21; Jeremiah 32:17; Matthew 4:16; Luke 11:36; John 1:9,  9:5; Matthew 5:14

We are walking in today:  Ask God For The Impossible--Sun, Stand Thou Still!

Joshua 10:12-14 12) Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. 13) And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. 14) And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel. This is a prayer request from Joshua.  We must truly begin to understand the power of prayer.  This is our communication to God.  This is our life line.  This is our bridge over troubled water.  The word of God says, James 4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.  John 16:24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.  We need to look at how powerful our request to God is in our lives!  This is the night Joshua was called to help Gibeon and that night Gibeon was told by God to attack the Midianites--then the other battles.  The sun was passing west to east and was at the noon position when Joshua asked God to make the sun and moon to stand still.  The quarter moon had risen, the sun in the west and now was sitting in the east. Then Joshua asked that both the sun and moon stand still.  The Earth had to flow out of reverse orbit of the sun and now back into reverse orbit of the sun.  What a mighty God we serve!  We must tap into the heart of God through prayer.  Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faintWe can never expect a likeliness of our Father unless we follow His example, and give more time to commune with the Father.  A revival of real praying would produce a spiritual revolution!  Holy living is essential preparation for prayer.  The enemies greatest goal is to keep us off of our knees.  A man, who kneels before God, will stand before any man.  We need to ask God for the impossible!  If you are not daring enough to believe God for the impossible you may be sleeping through the best parts of your Christian life!  Ask God like Jabez, 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.   We must first consider the attitude of Jabez, he is said to be honorable, even more so than his brothers.  We can see that a honorable prayer is earnest, intense, zealous and determined.  James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.  The second characteristic is humility, we are to humble ourselves--the Lord will exalt us.  Psalm 3:3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.  1 Peter 5:6-7 6) Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 7) Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. The earnest, fervent, humble prayer, honorably before God, is how we are to pray.  Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  We must be like Jesus, who prayed continually.  Ask God for the impossible.  Sun and moon, stand thou still.  Now unto Him who is able to give you more than you could ask or think!  We are in a battle, sun and moon stand thou still!  God we need You to shed light in this battle--in all of the dark places.  Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Start asking God for the impossible!  Look at Joshua, who had men to fight the battle in hand to hand combat but as the enemy retreated, God caused a hail storm to fall from heaven and to take out more than the children of Israel, slew with a sword!  If you do your part, in hand to hand combat, putting on the whole armor of God and standing against the enemy--have faith.  God will do His part! 
Fiveamprayer it is time to ask God for the impossible!  Sun and moon stand thou still!  Ask God to shed light on your battle.  He said that He is and He has!  When Peter saw Jesus walking on the water, he said if it is You, Lord bid me to come.  Ask God for the impossible!  He has the way out of no way, your healing, and your blessing!  Ask Him for the impossible!  He is the one who feed a multitude with 5 loaves and 2 fishes, He turned water into wine.  Ask God for the impossible, He gave sight to those who were born blind from birth!  Ask God for the impossible!  Sun and moon stand thou still!  I am in a battle and need more light!  I know that with men it is impossible only God makes all things possible!  Ask God for the impossible in your finances!  Ask God for the impossible in your marriage, on your job, in your ministry.  The power of life and death is in your tongue!  You shall have what you say!  
Matthew 21:21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.  Ask God for the impossible.  Like the woman with the issue of blood, who had spent all of her money and sought out healing from many doctors who said they could do nothing more for her--that their treatments made things only worse.  That she would seek out Jesus to touch the hem of His garment, that she would push, crawl and reach out for her healing!   Our Lord Jesus got up on the third day; there is still power in the blood!  Ask God for the impossible.  He can change your situation, or circumstance--but are you asking Him for the impossible?  That which you can not do yourself?!  We must seek, ask and knock.  There are things that only God can fix--you have been praying and fasting and seeking a word on what you are going through.  Ask for the impossible!  Sun and moon be thou still!  Ask, believe and receive it!  You can move mountains; look to God He has made a way of escape for you!  He is a rewarder to those that diligently seek after Him!  Ask for the impossible for your ministry, your children, your marriage, and your finances.  Look to God, only He can do this!  We stand on Your word, the word that will not return void nor reversed.  Your word will do all that You sent it to do.  We have gotta get this down and walk this out by faith!  Faith without works is dead!  Ask and believe!  You already have it!  We can speak those things as though they already are!  We have the power of life and death in our tongues!  Ask God for the impossible!  The enemy wants you to think that it can not be done, that there is no way.  God comes to tell us this morning that He is giving us the impossible; we just have to ask for it!  Thank You God for this word!  Many of us have been laboring in that impossible thing and were getting ready to give up but we have this word to hold on to!  Thank You God for this word, that is letting us know that it is You who makes the impossible, possible.  When we give it over to You, asking for You to handle it, it is already done and finished.  Jeremiah 32:17 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.  The battle is hard and the enemy is trying to take you out!  Hold on to God, seek Him out!  God responds to the voice of men.  He told us that there will come a day that He will pour out His Spirit onto all flesh!  Ask Him for the impossible.  When the children of Israel were facing the Rea Sea, God told Moses what to do--and they witnessed the impossible and walked over on the bed of the Rea Sea as dry ground.  Ask God for the impossible!  You have not because you ask not.  Hallelujah God!  The enemy is trying disguise your season.  Ask God for the impossible!  Let there be blessings in what you speak--God creates the fruit of our lips.  That is the God that we serve.  He is a way maker, for His is the Way, the Truth and the Life!  Ask Him and see if He won't give you the impossible!  He did it for Sarah, giving birth in her latter years.  Ask for the impossible!  That one thing that you put down because seems not to be the right time or season.  Ask Him and have faith and believe Him!  Whether you see it or not, know that God is telling you to ask.  Thank You God for coming this morning and bringing us breakthroughs!  You told us that this is the year that we will see.  Ask for the impossible!  He rewards them that diligently seek Him!  Ask for the impossible.  You know what you need.  Stand on His word, declare, decree.  We can do all things through Christ which strengthens us!  By His hand all things are possible for me!  Jacob said, I won't let go until you bless me!  Ask for the impossible!  He is waiting  to bless us!  He is pouring out overflow blessings!  But you have not asked Him.  You can't just think your requests, you must make petitions, make a request or take it to the alter.  Call God on His word!  He is our Shepherd and we shall not want!  There is no lack in our lives!  He is pouring out blessings that there is not room enough to receive.  We are blessed and highly favored!  Ask Him, stop sitting on your blessings with your mouth closed.  One of the first attacks of the enemy, is to take out our communication.  God is telling us to ask Him!  All things are possible with God!  We lift up fiveamprayer this morning, some of us are facing impossible situations--options appear few, doors closed, and attack after attack.  Lord teach us to say sun and moon stand thou still.  Give us more light to fight in this battle!  Lord shine Your light of truth in out lives that there is not darkness lurking anywhere!  Matthew 4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.  Luke 11:36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light. John 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the worldMatthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.  Thank You God for Your word!  We have got to see this with spiritual eyes!  Lord, help our unbelief!  That we no longer sit on the sidelines not asking You or making our requests known unto You.  Thank You for opening blinded eyes letting us know that we can ask for the impossible!  We can not fight this carnally but spiritually!  We lift up prayer request this morning, have them to stand on Your word, sun and moon stand thou still, I need light to see to fight this battle.  Ask for the impossible, nobody but God can do this!  Sun and moon stand thou still in my marriage, with my children, in my ministry and in my finances.  We repent for not making our request of You Lord, the only one who can deliver!   Sometimes we think that we are our own little gods.  We are not sufficient in ourselves, all sufficiency lies in You!  Thank You Lord for forgiving us and casting our sins into the sea, that they are remembered no more!  Thank You Lord for teaching us that we must forgive others to be forgiven by You.  That when we draw nigh to You, You would draw nigh to us!  We are asking You Lord for the impossible!  Fix it Lord, You are the only one who can!  That You are the giver of peace beyond our understanding and joy unspeakable, is all found in You Lord!  We are to be still and know that He is God!  As Peter told Jesus, if that is You Lord, bid me to come out to You on the water.  Walk out on your faith, believing God.  It is already done, already finished.  God told us last week to launch out into the deep and then today ask God for the impossible!  In the supernatural we can let our petitions known unto God--no more mediocre requests.  Step out in faith and ask for the impossible.  Ask God for everything in your life that is impossible.  Thank You God that the scales have fallen off of our eyes.  Even if we have several impossible things to request of God, He is still keeping us, we are not utterly cast down nor destroyed!  Thank You God!  Let us really walk this out by faith!  Lord we are asking for more of You, for a second touch that when we walk our shadow could fall on others and they would be healed.  Hallelujah God!


We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:  With men things are impossible but with God all things are possible! 



Welcome to the overflow...

That God is able to do some things?  NO.  All things are made possible by Him!  Praise Him right now, it is already done and finished!  Give God the glory and the praise!  No one can do this but by the Lord God Almighty!  Whatever your struggle is, ask for more light--sun and moon stand thou still!  Hallelujah God!  You are about to get your breakthrough!  Get ready!  He told us to launch out into the deep!  Cast your nets on the other side!  At His word they let down their nets again!  Fiveamprayer, at His word, let your nets down again.  Seek out that impossible thing to be done in Your life, because you have requested it of God!  Stay hoping and believing to see the goodness of the Lord in the land the living.  His word lines up, when you are walking with Him!  Thank You Lord!  Jesus said your faith has made you whole!  That God has granted us that which we have requested!  All because we dared to ask God for the impossible!  You better go into your prayer closet and ask God for the impossible.  Have a supernatural blessed day!  Visit us on facebook, it will encourage you!
