He Can. He Will. He Walks With You.

Three declarations that anchor every valley, every promise, every impossible moment.

LUKE 1:37  ·  EPHESIANS 3:20–21  ·  PSALM 23:1–4

There are seasons when the road ahead looks impossible. The mountain is too steep, the valley too dark, the promise too far away. In those moments, God does not hand us a map and a timeline. He gives us something better — Himself. And in His Word, He gives us three unshakable declarations that, taken together, form the bedrock under every step of faith.

He can do it. He will do it beyond what you can imagine. And He will walk with youthrough every valley to get there. This is the testimony of Scripture. This is the testimony of every believer who has trusted Him in the dark.

IHE CAN”Nothing will be impossible with God.” — Luke 1:37

IIHE WILL”Exceedingly, abundantly above all we ask or imagine.” — Eph 3:20

IIIHE WALKS WITH YOU”Even through the valley of the shadow — You are with me.” — Ps 23:4

I. He Can — Nothing Is Impossible With God

“For nothing will be impossible with God.”LUKE 1:37 (ESV)

The angel Gabriel spoke these words to a young woman holding what seemed like an impossible promise. A virgin, bearing the Son of God. No natural explanation. No precedent. No human framework adequate to contain it. And into that impossible moment, God spoke one of the most absolute declarations in all of Scripture — nothing will be impossible with Him.

Not some things. Not most things. Nothing. The Greek word here is rhēma — every word, every matter, every spoken promise of God carries within it the impossibility of failure. What God speaks, He is able to perform. The womb that was barren does not determine the outcome. The bank account, the diagnosis, the relationship, the circumstance — none of these write the final chapter. He does.

Mary’s response was not fully explained logic — it was faith. “Let it be to me according to your word.” She leaned into the impossible, and God filled it. This is the invitation extended to every believer: not to understand how God will move, but to trust that He can.

“The size of your impossibility is never the measure of His ability.”

II. He Will — Far Beyond What You Can Ask or Imagine

“Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”EPHESIANS 3:20–21 (ESV)

Paul does not merely say God is able to meet our needs. He stacks the language deliberately, almost extravagantly: far more abundantly than all that we ask or think. The word translated “far more abundantly” is the Greek huperekperissou — a compound that means above and beyond, over and above, exceeding all excess. There is no English word strong enough to carry it.

This means that your biggest prayer is still too small. Your most faith-filled expectation still falls short of what He is actually preparing. The widow of Zarephath thought she was preparing a last meal — God was preparing a provision that outlasted the famine. Joseph thought he was dying in a pit — God was positioning him for a palace and a nation saved. What you are walking through right now is not the end of the story. It is the setup for something you have not yet seen.

And notice where this power operates: according to the power at work within us. It is not power coming from a distance. It is the Holy Spirit, already resident, already active in the life of the believer. The same resurrection power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in you right now. This is not theology to admire. It is power to access — through prayer, through faith, through surrender to the One who works.

III. He Walks With You — Even Through the Valley

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”PSALM 23:1–4 (ESV)

David did not write this psalm from a comfortable place. He wrote it as a man who had known real valleys — pursued by enemies, betrayed by those closest to him, stripped of every earthly security more than once. And yet these are the words that rose from his pen: the Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.

Notice that David does not say the valley is avoided. He says even though I walk through it. The valley of the shadow is real. The darkness is real. The danger is real. But the Shepherd’s presence in the valley is more real than all of it. The rod defends. The staff guides. The presence of the Lord transforms the most terrifying terrain into a place where fear loses its grip.

He is not watching from above while you walk through. He is with you — in the valley, step by step, rod in hand. The Shepherd who laid down His life for the sheep does not abandon them in the dark. He goes before. He walks alongside. He brings through.

“He does not promise to remove every valley — He promises that you will not walk through it alone.”

Three Declarations for the Impossible Day

These three passages belong together. They form a complete word of faith for every season of impossibility, every promise still unfulfilled, every valley still being walked through.

When fear says it cannot be done — Luke 1:37answers: nothing is impossible with God.

When your faith feels too small for the promise — Ephesians 3:20 answers: He will do beyond what you are even able to ask.

When the valley feels endless and you are not sure you can take another step — Psalm 23answers: You are with me. That is enough.

Hold these three declarations close today. Speak them over your circumstances. Write them on the doorposts of your heart. The God who spoke to Mary in the impossible, who poured resurrection power into the church at Ephesus, who walked with David through every valley — He is the same God walking with you today.

A PRAYER FOR THE IMPOSSIBLE

Father, I come before You today with what feels impossible. I confess that my vision is too small and my understanding too limited to see the full scope of what You are doing. But Your Word is clear — nothing is impossible with You. You are able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all I can ask or imagine, by the power of Your Spirit already at work within me. And even in this valley — whatever form it takes — You have not left me. You are with me. Your rod and Your staff comfort me. So I choose faith today over fear. I choose Your Word over my circumstances. I choose trust over anxiety. Lead me, Shepherd. Do what only You can do. And to You alone be all the glory — now and forevermore. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
