This question generates a dilemma. The being can either create a stone it cannot lift, or it cannot create a stone it cannot lift. If the being can create a stone that it cannot lift, then it seems that it can cease to be omnipotent. If the being cannot create a stone it cannot lift, then it seems it is already not omnipotent. Omnipotence paradox can easily be solved. The omnipotent being in question creates a stone it can't life, but it still lifts it. Omnipotent beings can do the possible and impossible. They can't and can lift the stone at the same time.
