Ah Lord GOD! behold, Thou hast made the heaven and the earth by Thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for Thee." Jer. 32:1717Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee: (Jeremiah 32:17).
These great words were sighed out by Jeremiah's troubled soul in prayer to Jehovah. It is necessary to read the whole of the chapter from which they are taken, properly to enter into the prophet's prayer and the Lord's answer to it; but the single verse before us contains in itself deep encouragement for the tried and troubled heart.
Dark as present circumstances may be, it is well for the believer, as did Jeremiah, to lay firm hold on God Himself. All was utter gloom to the natural eye, and the promises of God apparently impossible to be fulfilled when Jeremiah uttered the words before us. But he believed God. And God showed His servant who believed His word, His WAYS.
First, we have to trust God's Word; and if there be implicit trust in Him, His ways will be made manifest to us.
"In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." Pro. 3:66In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. (Proverbs 3:6).
