Is Anything Too Hard for the Lord 

In the sermon, Pastor Walker spoke about how Abraham received a great blessing from God through three visitors and strangers. Abraham served them generously and lavishly. We see that Abraham was simply a person of love towards others, faithfully believing that God always blesses. Indeed, God did reveal himself through these strangers and they gave him great blessing.

This blessing was that his wife Sarah would have a child, even though she was an advanced age. In that culture, not having an heir was as if life itself was cut off. Yet, God made the impossible situation possible. It’s something that God has been doing since impossibly creating this universe out of nothing. He also showed us the impossible by raising Jesus Christ from the dead. God makes impossible possibilities happen.

For us, we believe in Jesus Christ and have the Holy Spirit with us. Just like for Abraham, God would reveal himself to us in great ways. If there is a great goal, hope, and blessing for us, He would give us great ideas. These ideas wouldn’t just be from human thoughts, but we should scale up and think towards what God can fulfill. May we respond to the impossible possibilities that God has for us with faith and joyful hope.

Then, its about accepting by faith Jesus Christ in our hearts, the perfect one who lived holy and righteous. Finally, its about putting on our new self, not by ourselves, but the power God who transforms us to be Christ-like and in His glory.
