His Hand Is Not Short

Gloria Copeland
And the Lord said unto Moses, Is the Lord's hand waxed short?

We need to go beyond believing only what is reasonable to our intellect. For example, we need to stop being content just to believe God for the money to make our house payment each month. We need to start believing Him for the money to pay off the entire mortgage!

“But Gloria, I just don’t know how God would ever get that kind of money to me.”

So what! Moses didn’t know how God was going to bring in enough meat to feed several million Israelites for a month either. So when God said He was going to do it, Moses said, “It would take all our herds and flocks to feed this bunch! It would take all the fish in the sea!” (verse 22).

“And the Lord said unto Moses, Is the Lord’s hand waxed short?” Then He proved He was able to do what He said by raining so much quail out of heaven, the Israelites actually got sick of it—just like He said.

When you have a need in your life that seems impossible to meet, think about that. Remember the question God asked Moses, “Is the Lord’s hand waxed short?”

No! It wasn’t short then and it isn’t short now. God knows how to get the job done. He knows how to get you everything you need. So look to Him as your source. Become expectant. Become miracle-minded, blessing-minded, and supernatural-increase-minded…God-minded!

God knows how to do everything. You don’t have to worry about that. Just focus on your part—believe, speak the Word and walk in the ways of God. Stop limiting God just because you don’t understand how He is going to do the things He has promised. If we had to depend on what we could understand, we’d be in great trouble. But we don’t! All we have to understand is that God is God and He has all power. He is able to do exceeding, abundantly above all we can ask or think!

That means if you can think it, God is able to do more than that.

If you can dream it, God is able to do more that that.

If you can hope for it, God is able to do more than that!

Whatever you need, God is able! He is able to satisfy your needs and godly desires and much, much more. His hand is not short!

Speak the Word

The Lord’s hand is not waxed short. He is able to meet all my needs! (Numbers 11:23)
