Genesis 18:14 NLT Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return about this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
Sarah was 90 years old when she conceived. She’d been praying for a son for decades, been upset and frustrated, made mistakes, gone through trials and tests, been jealous of Hagar and thought how unfair life was. She thought it was too late, that she’d missed her moment.
Then she heard the Lord tell Abraham she would have a son within a year and she’d just laughed! We can almost hear her say, “Yeah, right! Do you realise how old I am? Like, that’s going to happen!”
Have you still got some God given dreams and promises that you’ve given up on? God is saying when the opportunity comes, when He says something, don’t laugh it off as impossible. God can change water into wine in seconds and He can turn your whole life around by this time next year! Believe the promise and work with Him and He will bring you into what He has ordained for you since before the world was made.
Whether your dream is to be out of debt, to have a family, to be healthy again, to grow deeper in the things of God or to move into a new job, new area, new home, new ministry, God knows and it is all possible with the One who created all things.
If Sarah was here today she’d tell you age doesn’t come into it, that no matter how young or old, how discouraged, how hopeless things look, or how often you’ve tried and failed in the past, or how many mistakes you’ve made, when God conceives a dream in you He will bring it to pass when the time is right.😊
God knew from the very beginning that Sarah would have her Isaac and Isaac’s name means laughter. When God’s good plans come to pass in your life there will be laughter and joy, a sense of fulfilment. Nothing is too hard for God and all things are possible to those who believe. Believe it today. In Jesus name. Amen.
Have a blessed weekend.x😊
