Is Anything Too Hard for the Lord? (Episode 153)

September 11, 2025

At times, we face problems that are too big for us. Nothing in the Bible assures us that that will never be the case. That’s why our faith in God is so important. Let’s face it; had He created us to be self-sufficient so we could solve all of our own problems, we wouldn’t need to have faith in God. But the truth is that we all have limitations, and when life takes us beyond those limits, we must look to God. In this episode, Frank shares a message of encouragement, reminding us that nothing is too hard for the Lord.

In this episode, Frank uses the experience of Abraham and Sarah as an example. Abraham was 100 and Sarah was 90 when God blessed them with a child God had promised to them 25 years earlier. Furthermore, Sarah was born barren. Based upon their reality, what Abraham and Sarah wanted at this point was humanly impossible. But it was not impossible with God. The angel of the Lord said according to the time of life, I shall return and Sarah your wife will have a son.

We often talk about God in terms of natural reasoning. It’s as if we think God can only get something done while natural circumstances are favorable to the situation. We think that if God waits too long, even He can’t do anything about our situation. But natural circumstances don’t have to be favorable for God to work on your behalf. God can still work on your behalf even when natural circumstances are not in your favor.

Sarah laughed at the angel’s promise. Then the angel asked the question, “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” (Genesis 18:14, KJV).

The Importance of Faith

What should be abundantly clear here is the importance of our faith in God. So, in Psalm 27:13, the psalmist writes, “I had fainted unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living” (Psalm 27:13). He is saying that the thing that kept him from giving up, the only thing that kept him from going under, was that he believed he was going to see the goodness of the Lord.

When you are faced with difficult situations, when you are faced with a problem for which there seems to be no answer, what’s going to keep you moving, what’s going to keep you from giving up, what’s going to keep you from despairing is that you believe you are going to see the goodness of the Lord. So, the answer to the question posed by the title of this episode is no, there is nothing too hard for the Lord.
