Nothing Is Too Hard

Jeremiah prays after buying a field while Jerusalem is under siege. The purchase appears irrational unless God’s promise is stronger than the visible collapse.

He begins with creation: the Lord made heaven and earth by great power. Faith recalls the scope of God’s strength before naming the particular impossibility.

Jeremiah also remembers covenant, exodus, justice, and human sin. God’s power is not raw force; it acts consistently with wisdom, holiness, and steadfast love.

Then the prophet admits confusion. The city is falling, yet God commanded him to purchase land. Reverence does not prevent honest questions; it brings them to the One who can answer.

God repeats Jeremiah’s confession as a question: ‘Is anything too hard for Me?’ The issue is not whether the situation is difficult, but whether difficulty can exceed divine ability.

Omnipotence does not mean God performs contradictions or acts against His nature. It means He possesses all power to accomplish everything His holy will intends.

The field becomes a sign that judgment will not be the final chapter. Houses and vineyards will again be possessed because God can create restoration beyond ruin.

Name the impossible place without demanding your preferred outcome. Obey the next clear instruction, and trust that no purpose of the Almighty can be frustrated.
