Too Hard

Is anything too hard for the Lord? … But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Genesis 18:14a; Matthew 19:26 (NKJV)

Dear Ones: Too Hard! Sometimes we look at our situations with a sinking feeling that it is just too hard to find a way out of  our troubles. But throughout the Word of God the answer to that sinking feeling has been given. There is nothing too hard or impossible for the Lord. Natural strength and human wisdom will fail, but God does not fail.

You may say, “But there are times I did not get the results I was asking for.” God’s plans and purposes for your life are based in His wisdom and glory. He sees the end of a thing from its beginnings. When you look back on that seeming disappointment, you will see that God’s response set your feet on a different path. When you walk the path of life with the Lord, He will keep you from falling into the enemy’s traps. Something that looked like an answer might have been an enticing trap.

Ask the Lord to show you the truth of your situation. Fill your soul with His Word that speaks to the issue you are dealing with. Sit in His presence after you pray and listen for His answer. Usually, the answer comes as an inward witness followed by the peace of His presence. If you are unsure, then wait until His peace settles deep into your heart. He is your loving Father and will tenderly guide you.

May you come to know the truth that nothing is too hard for the Lord. He is able to take care of what concerns you today. His delivering arm is always extended to help His children in their times of need. He has already prepared the answer even before you go to Him. It is truly His joy to care for you. Remember, you are an overcomer. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
