Is Anything Too Difficult For Our God?

In chapter thirty two of Jeremiah the question raised in the title of our message this week is asked twice. Both times the answer is a resounding No! Verse 17 shows Jeremiah stating, "There is nothing too hard for you." (God) Then in verse 27 The Lord Himself says, "Is there anything too hard for Me?" 

This concept came to mind this week as I read an article entitled, "Israel and Saudi Arabia: A United Front." This is very significant since from the birth of Israel in 1948, Israel and Saudi Arabia have not had any formal diplomatic ties. However, currently the threat of Iran has Israel and Saudi Arabia seeing eye to eye. At the Munich Security Conference both nations issued almost identical warnings of caution against Iranian aggression. Israeli Defense Minister Liberman stated, "The real division is not Jew and Muslim but moderate people versus radical people."

Let us take this message a step further. Isaiah 19:23-25 says, "In that day, there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will serve with the Assyrians. In that day, Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land, whom The Lord of Hosts will bless, saying, 'Blessed is Egypt My people and Assyria the work of My hands and Israel My inheritance.'"

But I must admit I have wondered how all this is possible. These three verses from our Lord God says there will be a highway running from Egypt to Assyria which is current day Iraq. This means the highway would have to travel thru Saudi Arabia. This also shows Jews and Muslims worshiping our Lord God together. Again, how is all this possible?

It is possible because of our Lord God proclaiming in Jeremiah 32:17 & 27 that nothing is too difficult for Him. This really is all we need to know! Hallelujah!  Additionally, when we see Israel and Saudi Arabia working together, is this a little glimpse of Isaiah 19:23-25 starting to come to fruition? 

May The Lord Bless You And Keep You This Day And Every Day,

I will not have a message for a short while as we are moving to a new home, please continue in your prayers and support for Israel.
