KEY VERSE:
“With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” — Matthew 19:26
INTRODUCTION
When one person fully trusts in God, extraordinary things can happen. Throughout history, God has demonstrated His power through individuals who dared to believe Him completely. One of the most remarkable examples is George Müller, a man who proved that faith in God alone is sufficient to move mountains and meet every need.
MESSAGE
- A Life of Faith and Dependence on God
When God placed the vision in George Müller’s heart to build orphanages in England, he had only two shillings (50 cents or half a dollar). Yet, instead of appealing to people for support, Müller made his requests known only to God. He never sent out financial appeals, contacted donors, or organized fundraisers. He simply prayed and trusted God to supply every need. Over the years, God miraculously provided the equivalent of over seven million U.S. dollars to build and sustain five large orphanage buildings that housed over two thousand children, without debt or lack.
- A Legacy That Inspired Generations
George Müller’s unwavering faith inspired thousands. By the time of his death, more than one hundred thousand orphans in England were being cared for through ministries that followed his example. He also traveled across forty-two countries, preaching the gospel and encouraging believers to trust God’s promises. Even in old age, his passion never waned; at 87, he was still preaching, teaching, and managing the Scripture Knowledge Institute he founded.
- The Secret of His Strength
Müller’s message was simple yet profound: “Trust in God—not in man, not in circumstances, not in natural prospects, not in former donors—but solely in God.” He believed that when trust in the Lord is genuine, divine help will surely come. He reminded believers that we serve a God with unlimited resources, and all the power of Heaven stands ready to meet the needs of those who trust Him.
CONCLUSION
One man with God is never in the minority. George Müller’s life reminds us that when faith is anchored in God, the impossible becomes possible. What God did for Müller, He can do for you. Trust Him fully, obey Him completely, and you will see His supernatural sufficiency at work in your life.
PRACTICAL REFLECTION
You may not have all the resources you need, but you have the God who owns everything. Start trusting Him today for provision, direction, and breakthrough.
SIMPLE SUMMARY
Faith in God alone is the key to supernatural provision. One person who truly believes can change the world.
