    The Biblical principles of submission. This study looks at how submission is an act of humility and faith in God. We are trusting God to lift us up and fulfill His promises.

    Submission – A Command with a Promise Genesis 16 8 And He said, "Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?" She said, "I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai." 9 The Angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her ...read more

    An exposition of Abraham’s (then Abram’s) travels into Egypt reveals the persistant faithfulness of God in spite of out faithlessness and forms the foundation to challenge us to believe the promises made to us in Jesus Christ.

    10 Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to live there for a while because the famine was severe. 11 As he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai, "I know what a beautiful woman you are. 12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, `This is his wife.’ Then ...read more

    Abraham shows us what is means to walk with God. In order for us to walk with God we must isolate ourselves with Him, obey, and he will protect.

    What does it mean to walk with God? Genesis 12:1-3 I. Isolation II. Obedience III. Protection I. Isolation a. God wants us isolated so that God can mold us into His image. b. Look how many times Jesus said leave your brothers, family, land, etc. c. God ...read more

    LOT’S BACKSLIDING

    Genesis 13:1-13 THE BACKSLIDER There are many Biblical characters that serve God in different ways. In our text we read of a man by the name of Lot. Lot served in the same way many people do in our day. He served as a bad example. If it were not for the few words of Peter in his epistle we ...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

    Laughing Away The Burdens

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 4, 2000
    based on 119 ratings
     | 17,011 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 fully human, but he was also a man of God. He was a part of something bigger than himself.

He writes, “In 1980, America’s economy was in the ditch. The Cold War was in its fury. Russia seemed bigger, more powerful than us, and America ...read more

     | 8,506 views

    This begins with the historical evidence from the ancient kingdom of Ebla that validates the life of Abraham and then I will look at God’s call. How He used Abram’s humanity, weakness and faith to open the door of God’s purpose.

    God’s Call Genesis 11 ends with the genealogy leading up to Abram (later Abraham). Terah took his son Abram and his wife Saria, and grandson Lot and headed toward Canaan. They did not get to Canaan, but dwelled in the city of Haran (which is probably named after Abram’s brother who died after he ...read more

    Your decisions affect your destiny

    I want to begin today by telling you that we live in a very sensual society. On a daily basis people make decisions thinking only of what will gratify their physical appetites. So many of the choices that are made never look beyond the here and now. We have raised a generation that has adopted the ...read more
