....When it cam time for Abraham to believe and trust God as his sole source, to be his God, the God of all his life and needs, he left all his family and traditions, religious ones and non religious ones, and he left all other sources of provisions to walk before God in full trust that God would make the way. That God would provide every need. That God would bless all the works of his hands. He left all the established systems of his human hope and provision and walked out holding on to firmly, so firmly in his heart, the PROMISES that God swore unto him....He had no McDonalds, No Walmart. No Holiday Inn.... He only had the word and the mightiness of God and the Power of God in His Promises. Nonetheless his life was changed for the better forever by God and believed promises.
How would God pay all his bills? Meet he and his families every need? All he had was all he needed. GOD, HIS PROMISES, commitment and a trusting heart strong in faith that gave glory to God..... and it is written...Abraham believed and trusted God and God counted his faith and trusting him daily as his righteousness and by Abraham's faith God was glorified on the earth....
The results....His flock of animals multiplied exceedingly. His cloths were preserved. Silver and gold made it into his possession increasingly. Plenty of all good things in those days became his everyday companion. More than enough became his constant friend. God so smiled on him. God was good to Abraham for his trusting him and leaving all things for God's better plan for his life on earth.
Gods plan for us is always better and sweeter. His blessings are there. His lovingkindness is there. Abounding grace is there. The favor of the Lord is there. Laughter is there. Joy is there. Love and family blessings are there. Gods Strength and might is there. Your Faith legacy is there.We seek it. We found the path..It is the obedience of faith...
Abraham's blessings...the miracle child Issac, the presence of God in his life manifestly. He heard the voice and word of God directly from the Lord..his wife was unusually beautiful even in her and his old age. Visions, heavenly visitations and dreams from the Spirit of the Lord. All the works of his hands were God blessed and God prospered. God made him rich. God made him strong. Miracles of grace...pleasure in old years.....had a beautiful real covenant relationship with the Lord of the Creation. God named Him the father of those that believe. The father of many nations...the friend of God. and so much more...
Real faith and real heart trust is the way to the blessings of the promise land of God for our lives. From his seed all the nations of the earth would be blessed (Jesus Christ was that seed and will forever be the high light of Abraham's legacy). God Himself became Abraham's exceeding great reward. God himself became the beauty and the glory of Abraham's life and name on earth and in heaven forever......Be Believing.....so said our Lord to us all the children of Abraham's faith. We too are a part of Abraham's faith and trusting heart legacy. We too are a part of Abraham's Faith, Name, Calling and Faith Legacy. Faith, Faith, Faith...deno.....please share freely.
