     | 5,551 views

    Do we need to help God out in the fulfillment of His promises to us by taking matters into our own hand?

    The Life of Abram, Part 7: The Ishmael Project Genesis 16:1-15 Introduction In the last lesson, Abram asked the LORD for a pledge of his promise of the land. The answer he had gotten seems discouraging, especially for one whose worldview does not extend past this life. For someone with a ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapters 16 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 15, 2011
     | 3,364 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. As we come to Chapter 16 it is amazing how the tides change. Abram went from perfect in God's eyes to now tring to fulfill God's ...read more

    When we take action or make a decision but neglect the power of God, we are actually revealing our lack of faith.

    Getting ahead of God will bring troubles! If I asked the question, do you believe in an all powerful God? Many of us will raise our hands, wouldn’t we? But if I asked, do you always take action and make decisions based on your belief in an all powerful God? Not too many of us will raise our hands, ...read more

    Hagar was a woman who never thought God would take notice of her. She wasn't important or wealthy or full of faith. Her only claim to fame was that she ended up in the middle of a big, ugly, complicated, mess. Yet God knew who she was!

    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

    Faith is the distinguishing mark of the Christian. Did you know that the Christians were called believers before they were ever called Christians? Believers – this is the distinguishing mark of a Christian, is he or she is a believer

    Abraham, Our Spiritual Father We continue to examine the story of Abraham, the father of the faithful. Our story today happens about 4,000 years from our day before Israel exits Egypt in Exodus – does that help you place our story?

    Scripture teaches us that God sees everything we do. The question for you is, Does that comfort you or concern you?

     | 1,070 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

    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.
