Bible Reading: Gen. 18: 1 - 15
Topic: Nothing Is Too Hard For God To Do
Abraham had three visitors
he recognized to be divine beings and he willingly gave hospitality to them
(vs. 1 - 5)
As they ate, they asked
about Abraham's wife Sarah who was at the entrance to the tent listening to the
conversation.
The Lord declared that
Sarah would have a son in a year's time (v. 10).
Sarah laughed in disbelief
because by her reckoning she was well past child bearing age (she was 90 years
old). As she laughed, she asked "after I have worn out and my Master is
old, will I now have this pleasure? Will I really have a child, now that I am
old?" (vs. 12, 13)
God heard Sarah's laugh
and questions and asked Abraham why did Sarah laugh and say "Will I really
have a child now that I am old? Is anything too hard for the Lord?" (v. 13)
This question applies to
us all too: what is it that you need God to do for you? is it healing, passing
a hard wearisome examination, overcoming an obstacle, defeating satan's
attacks? With God nothing shall be impossible for you. Only believe God's Word.
Do not look at your
circumstances that may be telling you "impossible" or "too
hard" for God to do for you.
Learn to live by faith and
not your sight, for with God all things are possible.
God can do anything and
everything, only believe
Prayer
Lord, help me to believe
in Your all-sufficient and powerful ability to do everything including what
appears hard and impossible, Amen.
Memory Verse Gen. 18: 14a
"Is anything too hard
for the Lord."
