"Is anything too hard for the Lord?" — God's question to Sarah is one of the most searching questions in Scripture. Tozer takes it up and unpacks what it truly means for God to be all-powerful.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Tozer defines omnipotence not as God being able to do literally anything (including contradictions like making a rock too heavy for Himself to lift) but as God being able to do everything consistent with His own perfect nature and will. Why is this clarification important?
2.He points out that God's power is not brute force but purposeful, wise, and good. How does this distinguish the God of the Bible from the gods of ancient mythology or the arbitrary power of fate?
3.Tozer argues that the omnipotence of God does not make prayer unnecessary but rather makes it meaningful — we are asking the only One who has the power to actually help. How has your own prayer life been shaped by what you really believe about God's power?
