Hard

Genesis 18:14 (ESV)
14  Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son.”


If you live long enough you will come across situations that are downright impossible. It probably appears too hard for God to handle too. God spoke these words in response to Sarah's doubt.

Is anything too hard for the LORD? The word hard means difficult. Let me give you just a few reminders.

1. God spoke the universe into existence. Genesis 1-2.
2. God destroyed the world by flood. Genesis 6.
3. God parted the Red Sea. Exodus 13-14.
4. God fed Israel mana and quail in the desert for decades. Numbers 1-14.
5. God parted the flooded Jordan River for Joshua and Israel. Joshua 2-5.
6. God made an iron axe head float. II Kings 6.
7. God healed the sick. Matthew 8. Mark 5. John 9. Acts 3.
8. God raised the dead. I Kings 17. Mark 5. John 11. John 20-21.

If God can do all of that then nothing is too hard for Him. That includes whatever concerns you. He can do whatever hard thing you need Him to do. Only it is not hard for Him. It just looks hard from your perspective. There is nothing hard for Him. He is not taxed. He does not get weary. His mind is never bent trying to solve complicated problems. Nothing is hard for Him. Even your situation. Be encouraged. God will come through at the appointed time.
