(In reply to Chaz is absolutely correct by Lizzie)

i think everyone is thinking about this the wrong way. firstly, an omnipotent God would have limitless power/strength. basically, power/strength of infinity. to make a rock bigger than his power/stength could lift would mean to make a rock with weight greater than infinty. this doesn't exist. basically, you are asking Him to create something that isn't even logical/real. its like saying, can God create "yellow peace". what the heck is yellow peace? in the same way, can God create a rock heavier than infinity? there is no such thing.
