The axe-head seemed hopelessly lost, and since it was borrowed, the honor of the prophetic group was at stake, risking the reputation of their God. Against all odds, the iron rose from the depths and floated. What is impossible with man is possible with God. I once knew a man in Christ who faced a task far beyond his strength. It seemed absurd to even attempt it.

Yet, he was called to it, and his faith rose to the challenge. God honored his faith, unexpected help arrived, and the impossible was done. Another believer faced financial troubles. Though he could have settled all if he could liquidate a piece of his property, he found himself under pressure. He looked to friends for support but found none. Faith led him to God, and the crisis was averted, his path widened, and the iron did swim for him too. A third faced a deeply troubled soul.

He tried everything: teaching, reproving, warning, inviting, and praying, but nothing worked. The old, stubborn nature was unyielding. Then came fervent prayer, and soon a blessed answer from heaven. The hard heart softened, and again, the iron did swim.

Are you dealing with an impossible situation? What burdens you tonight? Bring it here. The God of the prophets is alive and ready to help you. He will not let you lack any good thing. Believe in the Lord of hosts! Approach Him, pleading the name of Jesus, and you will witness God's hand in your life. According to your faith, the iron shall swim.
