    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!

    THE GOD WHO SEES ME Genesis 16:1-14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Paul Dickson has written a book entitled, What’s In A Name? In that book he shares some of the most unusual names he’s come across.

    A Runaway Is Found, A Poor Decision Is Exposed

    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

    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

    Live By God’s Promise! Series

     | 2,515 views

    The story of Hagar and the birth of Ishmael teaches us about what happens when we stop waiting on God. Our man-made plans will go astray. We need to seek God in all that we do.

    Time flies when you are having fun. Time does not fly when you are waiting on God’s promise. When you are waiting on God weeks can seem like years. Waiting on God can be one of the most challenging times. The temptation to step in and take control of the circumstances is great. It also causes ...read more

    This message looks at the account of someone who was given a promise by God that he would receive a great blessing. But he, along with his wife, took matters into their own hands, and tried to get ahead of God, leading to strife.

    In our message this morning we’re going to focus on how we need to have patience when following the Lord. Hebrews is a book of the Bible that frequently talks about following God in faith, and we read that those who are patient will be able to “inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:12). In Hebrews ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Sixteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER SIXTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is Sarai gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram to have a child. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 16 Sarai, being barren, gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram: whom afterwards she treats hardly, having been despised by her. The angel ...read more

    Hagar has long represented the plight of the foreigner, the slave, and the sexually abused woman. She was a Slave. She was abused by Sarah, and abandoned by Abraham. Appreciated by God.

    Theme: Hagar, the Runaway Slave Text: Genesis 16:5-16   Introduction: Hagar is both a minor character and an important figure within Genesis.

    Hagar was in the wilderness in Genesis 16. God sent an angel to her. We can learn a lot from her experience.

    When Hagar got pregnant with Ishmael, she despised Sarah and was disrespectful toward her. (Genesis 16:4b) Sarah told Abraham, “When she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes.” Abraham told Sarah to handle the situation as she pleased. Sarah “dealt harshly” with Hagar, and Hagar ...read more
