Judges 11:29-12:15; Isaiah 32:1-20; 1 Corinthians 10:14-11:1
Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed…because she judged him faithful who had promised. Hebrews 11:11
Sarah had three main challenges to her faith. There was her barrenness, her age, and her unbelief (Gen. 18:12). Despite these obstacles God enabled her to get pregnant. What changed her attitude? It seems that her focus came off of herself and was directed to the strength of God Almighty— “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” (Gen. 18:14). This should strengthen our faith no matter what we are facing. Look to the omnipotence of our great God and have faith in His character. —K. W.
