Father of Faith Step 3 of 4

Halfway through. You're really getting to know Abraham.

Keep walking in faith.

And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him. Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also? And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old? Is any thing too hard for the LORD? Genesis 18:10-14 (KJV)

Three visitors came to Abraham's tent. One of them — the LORD — made a specific promise: Sarah would have a son within a year. Sarah, overhearing from behind the tent flap, laughed. She was ninety years old. But God's question cuts through every doubt: "Is any thing too hard for the LORD?"

Sarah laughed because the promise seemed impossible given her circumstances. What "impossible" promises have you dismissed with a quiet laugh of disbelief?

Is there something you've given up on because it seems too late?

Write down one thing you've dismissed as impossible. Hold it before God today and ask: "Is this too hard for you?"
