Good News - Romans 4:16-25

There are moments when faith is easy in our lives. When things are going well, when relationships are healthy, or when prayers get answered exactly the way we wanted. However, it is much harder to believe God when everything you can see seems to contradict what God has said. In Romans 4 Paul continues to highlight Abraham to show us what faith looks like. God made Abraham a promise. Timed passed, and passed, and passed. Abraham and Sarah grew older. Their circumstances became less favorable. Eventually, from a human perspective, God’s promise looked impossible. Yet Abraham believed. This passage is important to us now because most of us don’t struggle to believe God when life makes sense. We struggle to believe God when our life doesn’t make sense. God is able to keep His promises, even when circumstances seem impossible.
