Let's Encrypt Blogger Website Free SSL Certificate https for Blogger Custom Domain

How to enable SSL or HTTPS for blogger custom domain

Problem
Google introduced free SSL for blogger website, but as on February 2018, it is limited to blogspot.com subdomains. When I tried to enable HTTPS on the custom domain a message appears “Warning: HTTPS is not available at the moment for custom domain blogs”.  I wish I could get an SSL certificate for my website. Is there any way to get free SSL for blogger custom domain?
