“Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have
made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing
is too hard for you. You show love
to thousands but bring the punishment for the parents’ sins into the laps of
their children after them. Great and mighty God, whose name is the LORD
Almighty,
Many of us who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ still doubt it if God will be able to set us free from the sinful nature of the Devil in us. He is the Great and Mighty God, whose name is the LORD Almighty.
How can He not deliver us from the bondage to the sinful nature of the Devil in us if we truly believe in His Son whom He had sent us as our Deliverer. He is greater than Moses. If Moses could deliver God's people from slavery and bondage to the wicked Pharoah, why could n't the Lord Jesus Christ deliver us from slavery and bondage to the sinful nature of the Devil in us. For this very purpose God had sent us His only begotten Son with whom He is well pleased.

Romans 6:15-18
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law
but under grace? By no means! Don’t
you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are
slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death,
or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves
to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has
now claimed your allegiance. You
have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
What God is saying here is: "Is anything too hard for Me" if only you would obey Me. Obeying all that Christ had commanded is obeying God the Father fully. When you obey all that Christ had commanded, you will completely be set free from the sinful nature of the Devil in you and Christ's divine nature will then fill you. Is that impossible to occur within you, when it is the same God who opened the Red Sea for the people of God to escape from slavery and bondage under the iron-fisted rule of Pharoah? Pharoah is likened to the Devil here.
