Is There Anything Too Hard For God?

We sometimes pass through difficult times which make us lose hope about solutions to our problems. It comes in various forms. For Sarah it was barrenness. Same is the case for Elizabeth too. For Naaman it was leprosy. Sickness, debt, delay or denial are part of difficulties we pass through.
‘Is anything too hard for the Lord’? (Gen 18:14)

Sarah thought so. How possible would it be for her to conceive at old age? She concluded there was no hope. ‘Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, after I am waxed 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? That’s the impossible situation for Sarah. But God did it. ‘And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken. For Sarah conceived and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him. ‘(Gen. 21:1-2)
No matter what you are passing through, your miracle is on the way. Our God never fail. With God, all things are possible. ‘Lk 1:37)

How To Attract Miracle Into Your Life
Forget Not To Entertain Visitors
‘And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground. And said, My Lord, if now I have found favor in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree……And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, kneed it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hastened to dress it. (Gen 18:2-6)
While Abraham did the above, he never knew they were angels. He was hospitable. That was the vehicle used to bring about his own miracle.

Take Care Of God’s Ministers
And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she contrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as of as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. And she said unto her husband, behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.’(2 Kings 4:8-10)

This woman was barren but she never bother the man of God with her tales. She did just one thing-took care of the immediate need of the man of God. Such a simple act provoked her miracle. The man of God began to think about how he could bless the woman by knowing her needs. ‘And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. And he said unto him, say now unto her, behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? Wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people. And he said, what then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.
And he said, about this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, nay my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.’ ( Vs 11-17)


The way to getting your miracle may follow this path. Identify godly ministers where you are and do something to make them comfortable. Give to them regularly and you’ll see how God will reach out to you.

It's funny how God uses people to speak His word through and answer prayers. It's like you have spoken directly to me. I woke up this morning pondering how I was going to make it through. The bills keep piling up and the income has gotten smaller. I believe that you have been used by God to give me a message. Thank you for being a vessel that God can use and did use.

It is very true. The only way you can get out of debts or live in prosperity is when you give something. Giving has outstanding secrets to a better life. The bible talks about this almost in every chapter. What if I am poor? the poor should give even more than the rich. Trust me, this is the way to living an abundant life as our Lord Jesus put it.
