    A Study of the Life of Abraham A Fresh Encounter With God Gen 17:1-8 In this passage there is a definite challenge to Abram to move to a new level of trust and faith.

    Laughing Away The Burdens

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 4, 2000

     | 15,145 views

    Abraham laughed in the cynicism of old age; Sarah laughed in the denial that defends against what is inevitable; but beyond both of them God laughed in joy at the triumph of His purposes, fulfilled in two aged followers.

    You have heard it said, “He who laughs last, laughs best.” Let me expand on that: I may laugh, you may laugh, but God will have the last and best laugh, for God’s purposes will be served. Laughter. There are all sorts of reasons to laugh. Some will laugh out of frustration; unable to do what ...read more

    Abraham was justified before Isaac was born, yet his sacrifice was evidence of this faith. This study looks at our lifestyle as evidence for our faith in Christ or in the world.

    Walking by Faith and Blameless Genesis 17:1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. 2 "And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly." 3 Then Abram fell on his face, ...read more

    Like Father Abraham we walk in God’s promises

    “Father Abraham had many sons.” How many of the young people here this morning know that song? The song “Father Abraham” is one our children love to sing. I am sure we will sing it once or twice this week during vacation Bible school. In addition to singing about Father Abraham there are some ...read more

    Through God's promises to Abraham, we see how His promises never change.

    Introductory Considerations 1. Tommy knew that his father kept his promises. And so when his father promised to buy him a new bike, he was excited. But he would have to wait a year - when he would turn 8 years old. Tommy couldn’t wait. He wanted to make sure his father wouldn’t forget and he ...read more

    Does the Bible guarantee wealth? This study looks at the topics of the Jesus and the apostles wealth and how money fits into the Christian life.

    Biblical Teaching on Wealth In recent years there has been a growing misunderstanding about what the Bible teaches about wealth. It is now commonly taught that wealth is a God-given guarantee. It is supposedly guaranteed because of God’s covenant with Abraham. It is argued that we are under that ...read more

    This message first looks at the frustration and responses Christians have when God does not act according to our plan and then the need for our response to trust Him.

    Waiting For God Genesis 16 1 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children. And she had an Egyptian maidservant whose name was Hagar. 2 So Sarai said to Abram, "See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing children.

    When God covenants with us, there has to be a mark, but where?

    · When God made this powerful covenant with Abraham, He demanded a physical sign of the covenant, a mark that set the person apart as a carrier of the covenant. · God could have asked for many different signs - he could have asked for a pierced ear, but it is not a covenant of idle words and no ...read more

    Fourth in a six-part series on the life of faith as seen in the person of Abraham

    Shortcuts to God’s will are not worth taking. In chapter 16, we read that Abram and Sarai decided that enough was enough; perhaps God meant that Abram would have a son by another woman, since Sarai was barren, and so she gave her maiden Hagar to Abram. Hagar conceived and bore Ishmael to Abram; ...read more

    Expectation is something we all need to have if we want to see God’s promises fulfilled. It is really another way of saying hope.
