  1. If you are going through a season where you have

  2. done everything you know to do, if you have prayed,

  3. waited, fought, remained faithful, and yet the

  4. situation in front of you still seems impossible,

  5. this prayer is for you. There are moments when

  6. faith is no longer about finding another strategy.

  7. There are moments when you simply have to stand

  8. before God and say what Jehoshaphat said. We

  9. do not know what to do. But our eyes are on you.

  10. There are battles where God strengthens you to

  11. fight. But there are also battles where God steps

  12. into the situation and moves what you could never

  13. move yourself. So today I am not praying for

  14. my ability. I am praying for my dependence upon

  15. God. Let us pray. God, I come before you recognizing

  16. that you are God and I am not. You see what I

  17. cannot see. You know what I do not know. You

  18. understand what I cannot understand. And you

  19. have authority over everything that has exceeded

  20. my strength. God, I have reached the end of what

  21. I can do, but I have not reached the end of what

  22. you can do. When my wisdom reaches its limit,

  23. your wisdom remains infinite. When my strength

  24. reaches its limit, your power remains unlimited.

  25. When every door appears closed, you are still

  26. the God who makes a way where there is no way.

  27. Therefore, Today, I surrender this battle to

  28. you. I surrender the situation I cannot control.

  29. I surrender the people I cannot change. I surrender

  30. the circumstances I cannot manipulate. I surrender

  31. the questions I cannot answer. I surrender the

  32. outcome I cannot predict. My eyes are on you.

  33. God, intervene. Step into places where my hands

  34. cannot reach. Move in conversations where my

  35. voice cannot be heard. Enter rooms where my name

  36. is being discussed. Touch hearts I cannot touch.

  37. Expose what needs to be exposed. Close what needs

  38. to be closed. Open what needs to be opened. Move

  39. what needs to be moved and establish your purpose

  40. over my life. When the enemy surrounds me, remind

  41. me that I am not surrounded by something greater

  42. than you. When fear tells me that there is no

  43. escape, remind me that you are still the God

  44. who open seas. When circumstances tell me that

  45. everything is finished, remind me that you specialize

  46. in stepping into situations human beings have

  47. already declared impossible. God, fight the battles

  48. that are beyond me. Carry the burdens that are

  49. too heavy for me. Give me wisdom where wisdom

  50. is needed. Give me courage where courage is needed.

  51. Give me silence where silence is needed. Give

  52. me movement where movement is needed. And when

  53. you tell me to stand still, give me the faith

  54. to stand without trying to become my own deliverer.

  55. Because I believe that divine intervention does

  56. not require my understanding, it requires my

  57. trust. Therefore, I declare that what I cannot

  58. move, God can move. What I cannot change, God

  59. can change. What I cannot see beyond, God can

  60. see beyond. I declare that no situation surrounding

  61. me is greater than the God dwelling with me.

  62. I declare that my limitations do not limit the

  63. power of God. I declare that closed doors cannot

  64. cancel what God has ordained. I declare that

  65. opposition cannot overthrow the purpose of God.

  66. I declare that delay does not mean abandonment.

  67. I declare that silence does not mean inactivity.

  68. Even when I cannot see your hand, I will trust

  69. your heart. Even when I cannot understand your

  70. movement, I will remain under your covering.

  71. Even when I cannot see the road ahead, my eyes

  72. will remain on you. I declare that I will not

  73. allow fear to write the conclusion of a story

  74. God is still writing. I will not allow what I

  75. see today to determine what I believe about tomorrow.

  76. The battle may be greater than me, but it is

  77. not greater than my God. The obstacle may be

  78. beyond my strength, but it is not beyond his

  79. authority. The situation may have reached my

  80. limit, but it has not reached his. So I declare,

  81. where my strength ends, divine intervention begins.

  82. Where my understanding ends, faith will carry

  83. me. Where my ability ends, the power of God remains.

  84. And if I cannot walk another step, God carry

  85. me. If I cannot move the mountain, God move what

  86. I cannot move. If I cannot see the way, God become

  87. the way before me. I refuse to surrender my faith

  88. simply because I have reached my limit. My limit

  89. is not God's limit. My weakness is not God's

  90. weakness. My impossibility is not God's impossibility.

  91. Therefore I stand today, not because I know what

  92. will happen next. but because my eyes are on

  93. you. I believe you are working. I believe you

  94. are moving. I believe you are carrying me. And

  95. I believe that when this chapter is finished,

  96. I will look back. and recognize the fingerprints

  97. of divine intervention in places where I thought

  98. nothing was happening. In the mighty name of

  99. Jesus Christ, Amen. If you are going through

  100. a difficult season, remember this. You may have

  101. reached your limit, but you have not reached

  102. God's. Keep your eyes on him. Keep praying. Keep

  103. believing. And when you no longer have the strength

  104. to carry yourself, trust the one who is able

  105. to carry you. This is Pamoja Ministry. The house

  106. of prayer, the fervent prayer of a righteous

  107. person is powerful and effective. You are not

  108. alone.
