The greatest regrets we have in life won’t be the things we did that we wish we hadn’t done. They’ll be the things we should’ve done, but didn’t. But saying “if only” always leads to regrets. Putting “what if” in front of it always leads to possibilities. We serve a God who can do anything, a God who has the “what if” possibilities. Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
2 Chronicles 7:14
Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.
There is an enemy who hates us and seeks to kill and destroy us. Recognize the Godpotential in you so that you can stand firm against the enemy. Daniel 3:16-18
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn’t, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.”
1 Kings 18:21
Then Elijah stood in front of them and said, “How much longer will you waver, hobbling between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him!” But the people were completely silent.
God is able. We go through tough times, wondering how we’re supposed to get through them. We waver between trusting God and doubting Him. Remember that the one who holds tomorrow has got you; trust in God and let Him give you those God-given possibilities.

Romans 8:1-2
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
Romans 8:11
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
Let the power of God step into your life. We can’t handle our sin on our own, but there’s a power that can be put into our lives so we can live Spirit-filled lives. Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Not only are we no longer condemned, but we have a higher calling placed on our lives. Even when we don’t understand, everything that happens can be used by God for His ultimate purpose. He doesn’t promise that our lives will be easy, but we’ll never face our hardships alone. Romans 8:37
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Romans 8:38-39
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:31
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Isaiah 54:17
“…no weapon turned against you will succeed…”
1 John 4:4
But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
There is nothing too strong for God; no matter what is in your life, God can deliver you from it. If God is for you, who can be against you? There is no ceiling to God’s love and what He can do in your life.
