Just one word
And You revive every dream

There's Nothing That Our God Can't Do (Live from Passion 2020)
Meaning & Inspiration
Released as part of *The Worship Initiative, Vol. 21* on June 19, 2020, "There's Nothing That Our God Can't Do" stands as a powerful declaration of God's omnipotence and unwavering faithfulness. The song’s core message centers on the boundless ability of God, a theme deeply rooted in biblical truths that offer immense hope and encouragement to believers facing any circumstance. The lyrics skillfully employ simple, yet profound imagery, emphasizing how a single word from God can bring calm to surrounding storms, as referenced in verses like Psalm 29:3-4, which speaks of the Lord's voice being powerful and majestic. Similarly, the idea of darkness retreating echoes John 1:5, where light shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot overcome it. The recurring motif of a divine touch points to the transformative power found in Jesus, such as the healing experienced by those who touched Him, as seen in Mark 5:25-34, where a woman with a hemorrhage was instantly healed by touching His cloak. This palpable presence of Heaven described in the song resonates with the assurance that God is near, as stated in Psalm 145:18, "The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth."
The chorus, the heart of the song, unequivocally proclaims "There's nothing that our God can't do" and "There's not a mountain that He can't move." This directly aligns with passages like Jeremiah 32:17, where the prophet exclaims, "Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you!" The repetition of "Oh praise the name that makes a way" is a testament to God’s redemptive work and His ability to forge paths where none seem to exist, a theme woven throughout Scripture, notably in Isaiah 43:19, which promises, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." The addition in the second chorus, "There's not a prison wall He can't break through," vividly illustrates God's power to liberate from bondage, both spiritual and physical, echoing the liberation of the Israelites from Egypt and the ultimate freedom found through Christ’s sacrifice. The bridge, with its call to "believe for greater things" and its assertion that "There's no power like the power of Jesus," encourages a posture of faith and expectation. This resonates with Jesus' own teachings, such as in Mark 9:23, where He says to a father whose son was demon-possessed, "'Everything is possible for one who believes.'" The song’s repeated refrain of "Woah woah woah" serves as an emotive, wordless expression of awe and wonder at God’s magnificent capabilities, a response that naturally arises when contemplating the unfathomable power of the Almighty, reinforcing the overarching message that with God, all things are possible.
