Romans 4

I don’t think i remember realising that the book of Romans actually has an account of Moses in it in Chapter 4:

Romans 4:18  Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

Romans 4:19  And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb:

Romans 4:20   He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

Romans 4:21  And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

Romans 4:22  And therefore it (faith) was imputed to him for righteousness.

 

Its a good reminder that God is not asking us to have babies at 100 years old yet we cant trust his promises in the way Abraham did.
