     | 4,038 views

    Abram left the country, left the people but not the household (Genesis 12:4). He took Lot with him. Now, he decided to depart from his household. After, Lot departed, God spoke to him.

    Having Confidence When We Are Fearful

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,665 views

    What do we do when the ugly little head of fear begins to creep into our lives? What is it that causes you fear? An example of Abram's life shows us what we should do and what we shouldn't do.

    Fear. Whether we want to admit it or not, fear is something that we have to wrestle with. The fear of standing on the ladder that's two stories high. Fear of a spider crawling on your skin. The fear of snakes. The fear of standing on a stage with the spotlight beaming on you. The fear of ...read more

    Life is made up of many decisions. Some BIG and some SMALL and sometimes very unpopular.

    For example: (1) SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO MAKE PROFESSIONAL DECISIONS Consider the many decisions an umpire has to make calling “balls” or “strikes” in a baseball game. He can almost rest assured that by the time the game is over he does not have a friend in the stadium. These fellows have a hard ...read more

    Tale Of Two Fathers (Father’s Day)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,800 views

    Abraham and Lot were both saved men, but Lot was like many of the fathers today. The way Lot lived his life, it is difficult to believe he was saved.

    Abram had been accompanied by Lot in all his wanderings. But a separation must take place between them. Abram and his seed were to be kept distinct from all other races, as from him the promised Messiah was to spring. This also was brought about by what seemed a series of natural circumstances, ...read more

    In Genesis 12 and 13 we learn two valuable lessons.

    • In Genesis 12:10-20, Abraham is seen leaving Canaan (The Promised Land) during A TIME OF FAMINE to go to Egypt (a picture of the world). • In Genesis 13 we see Abraham recognizing his mistake of going to Egypt, and returning back to Canaan land.

    Barna research contrasted captive & casual believers, which we can see in Abraham & Lot. We'll see how their faith, or lack of it, guided their choices, and see the outcome of their choices.

    CASUAL CHRISTIANS WILL BECOME CASUALTIES Gen. 13:1-18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: BAD-MOUTHING TO THE WRONG PERSON. An elderly woman came into church. An usher asked her where she’d like to sit.

    Abraham believes in the future which is in the hands of God. He he looked unto God and not unto the situations and surroundings. He became the Father of nations, father of faith and even the father of Jesus.

    Theme: Abraham: Father of Nations Text: Genesis 12:1--3   Introduction: The Lord is good, and His love endures forever!!   Today, we will meditate on the great personality of the world History, namely Abraham. I titled it as “The Father of Nations”. This passage has three great ...read more

    Each one of us is a member of God’s body the church. God is building His church and the gates of hell will never prevail against it. Let us stand firm on God’s promised and His faithfulness and be united as a church.

    Wilfulness is sin on a mission and Lot edged closer and closer. The world holds attractions for people, like the fishing spider that dangles a blob on the end of strands of web to allure its victims and pounces. Sodom was alluring Lot and about to pounce.

    LOT – PART 2 – A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR GOD – FOR ABRAHAM – AND FOR HIMSELF – GENESIS 13 – 14 - LOT IN SODOM INTRODUCTION We take up this account from where we left off last time.

    Every day we must set aside time to come to our personal altar where we read His word, worship Him in song and pray. Here we will encounter Him afresh and He will teach us His ways. If we don’t have such a time we must build it now!
