Romans 4:20-21 (NKJV) 20 He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.
Sometimes God requires us to do hard things.
Sometimes those things seem downright impossible. But that’s because we look at them through human eyes, analyzing them by human standards.
Serving God fully requires that we change that, learning to look at things through God’s eyes, by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Abraham had to do this. He had to look beyond his age and Sarah’s dead womb to believe that God’s promise of a son would be fulfilled.
God is the God of the impossible. He is miraculous in His nature. He does what man says can’t be done in ways that man could never even conceive in his finite mind.
This is something that we all need to remember and hold close to our hearts.
It’s something that we need to be reminded of every now and then, so we don’t lose hope and let our faith in Him falter and grow dim.
On the contrary, as we face challenges and impossible situations, our faith needs to grow stronger, not become weak and impotent.
Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born. Sarah had not been able to conceive or bear a single child her entire life.
Despite this seemingly impossible situation, God made good on His promise. And Isaac was born.
This is our God; the God who makes the impossible more than possible by His mighty hand.
Matthew 19:26 (NKJV) 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
