| 0:00.0 | Hello my friends and welcome to the morning mindset. This is our opportunity to get our minds |
| 0:09.5 | aligned with the truth of God's work. I hope that you're ready for that. Let's dive |
| 0:14.0 | in. We're going to be looking at Genesis 17 today and asking ourselves, what might |
| 0:20.0 | God do in us? You see, there are impossible things in life. Things that come across our |
| 0:26.1 | radar that we just got to shake our heads at and we say, I don't know how that's |
| 0:29.9 | going to happen. Well friends, we have a God who specializes in the impossible. And Abraham's |
| 0:35.6 | story today is going to illustrate for us what might be possible in our lives. I wonder, maybe |
| 0:42.4 | you're feeling an impossibility in your marriage right now. You have difficulties going on. You have |
| 0:47.8 | conflicts. You have strife. Friends, God can do the impossible in restoring that marriage. One |
| 0:53.7 | tool you may find is helpful is a little devotional that I've created for Mary couples. It's called |
| 0:59.4 | the Marriage Improvement Project. You can find a link to the book in this episode. And I would |
| 1:05.7 | suggest you get one for the wife, one for the husband and that you work through it together. That's |
| 1:09.7 | how it's designed. That's what it's for to help God do the impossible in your marriage. |
| 1:15.2 | Because we get back to Genesis 17, we're going to read here what God says about his |
| 1:21.4 | impossible tasks in Abraham's life. He says, as for Sarah, your wife, you shall not call her name |
| 1:27.0 | Sarah, but Sarah shall be her name. I will bless her and moreover I will give you a son by her. |
| 1:34.5 | I will bless her and she will become nations. Kings of people shall come from her. |
| 1:39.8 | Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed and said to himself, shall a child be born to a man who |
| 1:45.7 | is a hundred years old? Shall Sarah who is 90 years old bear a child? Friends, do you see the |
| 1:52.4 | impossibility here? Do you see the thing that God is promising will happen for Abraham and for Sarah |
| 1:58.9 | that by human standards can never happen? Part being human is that we are finite, we're limited, |
| 2:08.1 | we're constrained, we have things that we simply cannot do. And friends, this is a design feature. |
