"Is anything too hard for the Lord?"

That's the question the Lord asked Abraham in Gen. 18:14. The context is God's clarification to Abraham that he and Sarah would have a son. It's interesting that both Abraham (Gen. 17:17) and Sarah (Gen. 18:12) laughed at this news. In response to Sarah's laughter, God asked the question - I call it "The question I need to ask every day."

I discovered that the Hebrew word translated "hard" in Gen. 18:14 is translated other places "wondrous" or "wondrous works." I suggest you get a concordance and do a topical study on what the Bible says about God's wondrous works.

What "wondrous" things has God done for you in the past few months? It would benefit you to list them - and thank God for them!

What "wondrous" thing do you need God to do for you this week? Ask! And feel free to drop me an email and I'll be honored to join you in prayer.
