“‘Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You....Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” (Jeremiah 32:17, 27 NKJV)
Is anything too hard for the Lord? Of course not! God has all power. That is what the word omnipotence means.
Probably the most powerful force in nature I have ever experienced was Hurricane Hugo. It roared onto shore near Charleston, SC on Sept.22, 1989. The storm had lost none of its fury when it reached our home near Charlotte, NC. Transformers exploded as power lines fell. In the darkness, you could hear the windows creaking as the winds pushed against the glass. Then, massive trees were uprooted, shaking the house as they fell.
Yet, that was one storm. God sent a storm to arrest a fugitive named Jonah who was fleeing the will of God. Jesus spoke to a storm on the Sea of Galilee and demanded it to hush—and there was instant calm.
Is anything too hard for the Lord? No matter what your need, despite the lack of resources you have, there is infinite power in the God you call upon. Rest in that!
