Those of you who answered "yes", God could make a rock so large that he could not lift, then God is not almighty.
For those who answered "no", God could not lift a rock so large that not even he could lift would indicate that God is not all-capable and can't do anything and everything!

God made the heavens and the earth so we know he can make some really big things.
Lifting means raising things from the earth which would require a force proportional to gravity and the mass of the rock. However as the rocks get bigger we need to factor in the mass of the Earth as well as the rock according to Newtons universal law of gravity. See attachment
As the equation is symetrical, we could say that if God made a rock bigger than the earth then he would no longer be lifting the rock but would be lifting the earth.
So yes he can make a rock bigger than he can lift, it just needs to be just a little bit bigger than the earth so that should be easily within God's capabilities.

God is not bound to the rules of our universe and rationality. Therefore, the answer is yes.
