Nothing Is Too Hard for God
Start Here
Tell me about a time you tried and tried to do something, but you just couldn't do it.
Reading — Jeremiah 32:17
Read it aloud once, slowly, then let that last line hang in the air a moment.
"Oh, Lord GOD! You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for You!
Discussion
Littles
Reach your arms up as high as they go — can you touch the sky?
They can't. Then: "God's hand made that whole sky, and the ground under your feet too. He is that strong."
Middles
Jeremiah says God made the whole sky and earth — so how does that prove the last line you just read?
Let them connect it: making everything is bigger than any one problem. Then: "If a friend said their problem was too big for God, what would you say back — and why?"
Teens
In one sentence — why can the God who made everything handle anything?
After they answer: "What's one thing you're quietly treating as impossible right now — and does this change how you'd pray about it?"
Walk It Out
Jeremiah prayed this the day God told him to buy a field in a doomed country — and he did, sealed deed and all, on a promise he couldn't yet see (Jer. 32:9–15). Pick one thing you're trusting God for down the road and shake on it with the person beside you — your own deed, signed on His word.
