Genesis 18:10-14
Then the Lord said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son.”
Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. Abraham and Sarah were already old and well advanced in years, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing. So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my master is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
Then the Lord said to 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? I will return to you at the appointed time next year and Sarah will have a son.”
Is anything to hard for The Lord? As you look at your life do you see impossible problems in front of you, or opportunities for God to do a miracle? God is in the business of doing great things. He put the nation of Israel in the place of hardship on a repeated basis just to show His glory when He delivered them. Is it any surprise that the very birth of Israel (Isaac's seed) would be in the face of great odds and tremendous hardship? Take a look at the hardship you face. Do you see God grace and power ready to be displayed in this? Do you see the fact that God wants to perform a miracle for us? We can laugh like Sarah in our above passage, or we can fall on our face and be thankful ahead of time that God is going to do a great miracle. Is there anything to hard for God? God heals conflicts! God heals diseases! God heals financial burdens! God heals heartaches! God heals everything we need to be healed ... in HIs own way and in His OWN time. Is there anything to hard for God?
