Miracles Really do Happen

Finally, the promised son, Isaac, was born. His name means "laughter," and Sarah said all those who saw her would laugh and rejoice with her.

On the day Isaac was weaned, Abraham threw a big feast to celebrate. Sarah saw Ishmael laughing and mocking Isaac, and she insisted that Abraham send Ishmael and Hagar away. God planned to fulfill his covenant through Isaac, not Ishmael, so he told Abraham to do as Sarah asked.

God fulfilled his promise to bless the whole world through Abraham. The miracle of Sarah having a baby cannot be understated and shows that God fulfills his promises, even the humanly impossible. God said, "I will bless you, and through your family, all the nations of the earth will be blessed." He is a God who keeps his word.

Question: In what seemingly impossible situation do you need God's intervention?

Prayer: Take some time to thank God for his steady and unfailing love. Ask him what he thinks about the situation you mentioned. Write down what he tells you so you can remind yourself about it as you prepare for a breakthrough!
