Thanks to the procedurally created environment, no two climbs are the same. Praying for you, Caroline.Insurmountable is an adventure roguelike with permadeath, in which the player has to overcome huge mountains. I love Romans 4, too…it has sustained me SO many times and is doing so in light of my and my family’s current impossible challenge. But, if we will go against everything we FEEL and do that, we will defeat satan every, single time, just like Jesus (THE Word) defeated him with the Word during His awful temptation to succumb. When confronted by the enemy through doubt and fear, it takes a concentrated effort to pick up the shield of faith and our Sword and stand firm in his face and quote Scripture to him. And God answered! God is teaching me so much lately about our need to PICK UP the shield of faith and the Sword of the Spirit in the face of these impossibilities. He took that letter in his hand, and he went into the place of worship, and he spread out the letter before the Lord, and he prayed over it. I can’t even imagine how much fear it must have invoked, but what he did next has always been SUCH an inspiration to me and challenged me and my faith so many times. When you mentioned “the negative report in front of you”, my mind instantly went to King Hezekiah and how Rabshakeh brought the awful, threatening, taunting letter from Sennacherib to him. Have you read the Passion Translation? It will rock your world and Romans 4 is completely worth buying the book for! Highly recommend it! I am choosing to thank God that the odds are stacked against us! Why? Because just like Abraham, when we receive our breakthrough there will be no other explanation but HIM! GOD will get ALL the glory! Don’t let the odds against you prevent you from asking, waiting, expecting, and hoping to receive your heart’s desire and God’s promises for you! Isn’t it better to choose the path filled with hope and rise up in faith believing against all odds? The alternative? You can wallow up with doubt and fear and choose to trust the negative report in front of you. Trust that he will bring you a husband, provide a job, heal you from your past, restore your relationships, or bring you a baby. Take a leap of faith and believe that God will break every chain and heal every disease. I love Romans 4 because this declaration was not just spoken over Abraham, but it was spoken over you and me too! When we believe, we too receive righteousness and the promises we have been waiting for (Rom 4:23-25). Not only was perfect righteousness credited to His account, but Abraham received His promise (Rom 4:19-22). He never stopped believing and because of His faith, He glorified God. Despite how bad your circumstances look or what you are up against, follow Abraham’s example and continue to believe the promise and expect God to fufill them.Ībraham’s faith was so strong that nothing could shake it. While I can isolate our situation, the reality is that you or someone you know might be up against some tough statistics today. We have been told that we have a 0% of conceiving naturally. ![]() Not only did he believe, but he took God at His Word and expected God to fulfill His promise.Ībraham is not the only person to have the cards stacked completely against him. The Passion Translation of Romans 4:18 says, “ Against all odds, when it looked hopeless, Abraham believed the promise and expected God to fulfill it.” The odds were completely against Abraham and Sarah to conceive, but despite his circumstances Abraham continued to believe anyway. ![]() Maybe you have been given a little more hope in the natural and are at 50%. Your situation might look completely hopeless. Are you facing odds that aren’t in your favor? Are you going against all odds? Maybe it’s the impossible? Maybe it’s not the impossible, but you have been given a slim chance.
