    PATHWAY OF DESTINY Gen 12:1-4 Josh 3:1-4 Greatness is something that we were all created to be. As soon as you became born again, you received the audacity to achieve greatness in life.

    Abraham's Model Of Progression In Faith

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Mar 13, 2014
     | 6,354 views

    All the stories of the bible are beautiful but some are timeless like the calling of Abraham. Abraham is referred to as the “father of faith” and as we examine his life and faith, I see a four part progression begining with obedience.

    God steps into your life to bless you. His promises are meant to be kept. Faith is a willingness to trust God. Time is on God's side. Enjoy His presence in the journey.
