Lesson 41: God loves to do the impossible

Greetings and blessings to the entire community @Steemchurch.

In Genesis 18: 9-15, a brilliant story is told, where to God, nothing is impossible. It's about Abraham and Sara, the Word says in Genesis 18: 11-12:

11 And Abraham and Sarah were old, old; and Sara had already stopped the custom of women. 12 Sara laughed at each other, saying, "After I have grown old, will I delight, also being my old lord?"

In this beautiful story, God visited Abraham and confirmed that Sarah would give him a son. God did not look at the human condition in which Abraham and Sarah were, God did not look if they were old and even if their bodies were in a position to procreate children. God has no need to look at these things, because for God nothing is impossible. If something pleases and loves God, it is doing things that man cannot do humanly. God is the God of impossible things.

The funny thing about all this is that Sara heard the Lord's conversation with Abraham, and when God told Abraham that Sarah would give him a son, Sara's laughter was heard.

This mysterious laugh of Sara, is what we have in our eyes today, right there in the Middle East, nothing more than a powerful nation that came out of Abraham's back, I mean, the people of Israel.
Israel is the result of that laugh from Sarah when God spoke with Abraham. Sara thought that because of her husband and her human condition, it was impossible to give Abraham a child. Sara was old, the custom of women had ceased, she no longer had sexual delight and her husband Abraham was in the same conditions.

In the midst of all these complex and difficult human circumstances, God acted according to his power and loved to do what Sarah had considered impossible. God made Sarah in her old age to delight again with her husband, and the result of this pleasure was Isaac, the son of promise.

Dear friend, do not forget that God loves to do the impossible, the only thing that requires us is that we believe and trust him in his promises.
