Genesis 18:1-33
"Is anything too hard for the Lord?" (Genesis 18:14). God was intent on
doing something great - "through him (Abraham) all the nations of the
earth will be blessed" (Genesis 18:18) - and nothing was going to stop
Him. Even if a great many people - Sodom and Gomorrah - refused to
honour God, His purpose would not be hindered. He would find a remnant
for Himself. the remnant may have seemed impossibly small, but it was to
be the beginning of blessing for all the nations. the smallness of the
beginnings serves to emphasize the greatness of the blessings. This is
not man's doing. It is the work of God, and all the glory belongs to
Him, the god of salvation, the God of grace, the God of glory.
