When confronted by the unimaginable, look at how some of our Bible heroes responded

When confronted by the unimaginable, look at how some of our Bible heroes responded:

• Abraham’s wife Sarah laughed when the Lord promised her a son in her old age. “Why did Sara laugh…Is anything too hard for the Lord?” the Lord answered (Genesis 18:13).

• Zechariah, a priest in the Temple, asked, “How can I be sure of this?” Gabriel. “I am Gabriel,” the angel answered. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news” (Luke 1:19, NIV). In other words, God can do this!

Mary exclaimed, “How will this be?” when Gabriel brought her great news of the Son she would bear. The angel assured her, “For with God nothing will be impossible” (Luke 1:37).

• The disciples questioned Jesus, and He answered, “With men this is impossible but with God, all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26).

• The Lord reminded the prophet Jeremiah, “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” (Jeremiah 32:27).

• "If God is for us, who can be against us?” asks Romans 8:31.

• Praise to “Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us” (Ephesians 3:20).
