He Can!

This item was filled under [ Bible Study, Spiritual Lessons ]

As I was studying through Genesis with heaviness of heart yesterday, I reached chapter 18:14, “Is anything too hard for Jehovah?”   Of course this is a well known verse, many Christians quote it in their everyday life and it is one you hear often from the pulpit.  But after I read it, I found my eyes pouring over with tears.  What a neat question for the Lord himself to ask.  Here, Sarah was laughing at the prospect of having a son at her old age because she was looking only at the human possibilities.  To have the Lord himself say that He can do anything and that He will, not only declares his sovereignty, but also brings us to a humble submission to His will.
