    There Are No Shortcuts Series

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Oct 16, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,673 views

    When we try to do things our way instead of relying on God's promises, we only make a mess of things.

    My dad was the king of shortcuts. While others stuck to the major roads, he took the back streets to avoid busy intersections throughout Tokyo where we lived. My dad had such a knack for finding these shortcuts that even the Japanese members of his congregation started to ask him the quickest way ...read more

    In this section from the story of Abraham, we see that he and Sarah got ahead of God and tried to force God to bring an heir through Hagar. There are a lot of important lessons for us to learn from this episode.

    Introduction: A. One day there was a man who was taking it easy, lying on the grass, looking up at the clouds, and having a conversation with God 1. The man said, “God, how long is a million years to you?” a. God answered, “In my frame of reference, a million years is about a minute.” 2. The man ...read more

    God keeps His promises, even when they don’t make sense.

    It’s a new year, so it’s time for people to start making new year’s resolutions! A resolution is just a promise you make to yourself in order to improve yourself. Many people make resolutions like promising to exercise, or eat better, or study harder in school, that sort of thing. ...read more

    A Runaway Is Found, A Poor Decision Is Exposed

    Contributed by Gregory Fisher on Jul 16, 2018
     | 7,906 views

    Abram and Sarai are desperate for an heir. So desperate, in fact, that they are willing to try anything...and, do. As life spins out of control the impact of their poor choices affects more than just their own relationship. But, God shows up as a searching and seeking God.

    A Runaway Is Found, A Poor Decision Is Exposed, And Faithful People are Tested. Text: Genesis 16: 1-16 16 Sarai, Abram’s wife, hadn’t yet produced a child. She had an Egyptian maid named Hagar. Sarai said to Abram, “God has not seen fit to let me have a child. Sleep with my maid. Maybe I can ...read more

    God Sees Our Struggles And Has A Solution

     | 13,721 views

    If you ever feel like life is out of your control, seems hopeless and you feel like no one can help, or even cares --- then look at the story of Hagar. Hagar teaches us that life is a struggle, yet God sees our struggles and offers a solution.

    The book of Genesis tells about different people who heard directly from God. God spoke face to face with Adam and Eve in the Garden. He spoke to Noah and gave him instructions about building the Ark. Then you can see how God spoke with Abram and made a Covenant with him. This lesson, we are going ...read more

    Is your life messy? Whatever the case, don’t give up because while you are running from a mess, you might just find a master; a God who sees you and knows you by name and has a plan for your future.

    Ever feel overlooked, unnoticed, or invisible? I know, I have, too. As a student in grade school, I longed to make a difference. I wanted to be a high achiever, to earn rewards and get good grades. The bottom line: I wanted to be accepted, feel secure and make a significant difference. I believed ...read more

     | 284 views

    Hagar’s story is a powerful reminder of God’s compassion for the rejected and the outcast. Her life teaches us to trust in God’s plans, even when circumstances seem unfair. No matter our situation, God sees, hears, and provides for His children.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF HAGAR – SARAH’S MAID, MOTHER OF ISHMAEL By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 16:1-16 "Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, ‘You are the God who sees’; for she said, ‘Have I also here seen Him who sees me?’" (Genesis 16:13) Supporting Texts: ...read more

     | 233 views

    When fear grips our heart and in those times when we feel all alone, deserted and feel that there is no one to help us or stand by us, let’s remember that God sees and He is by our side. The life of Hagar gives us a glimpse of God’s presence in the midst of life’s hardest moments.

    We read in Genesis 21:17, “God heard the boy crying, and from heaven the angel of God spoke to Hagar, "What are you troubled about, Hagar? Don't be afraid. God has heard the boy crying.”(GNB) Hagar and her son wandered through the wilderness, and when the little water she carried got ...read more

    GOD’s Plans are best and in HIS own timing. How many times have we tried to take matters in our own hands, only to find that had we waited on the LORD, HIS plans would have been fulfilled. But "The GOD Who sees" will redirect us when we go off track.
