Romans 4:19-21
v. 19: Abraham was “not weak in faith”. He did not focus on the fact that he was about a hundred years old or that Sarah’s womb was too old for having children . He did not let these physical obstacles weaken his trust in God’s promise. v. 20: “He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God” (Romans 4:20 a). Abraham did not doubt or argue with himself about whether God could keep His word. Instead, his faith grew stronger, and he honored God by trusting Him completely. v. 21: Abraham was “fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform” (Romans 4:21 b). He was completely convinced that God could do anything He had promised. This absolute trust is the heart of true faith.
