     | 2,476 views

    Why do we need faith in God? 1. Faith motivates us to move for God (vs. 8-9). 2. Faith wins the fight against our fears (vs. 8-9). 3. Faith puts us in touch with God's power (vs. 11-12). 4. Faith makes us willing to wait on the Lord (vs. 9-10, 13-16).

    ¿hay Algo Demasiado Difícil Para Dios? Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 8, 2024
     | 1,447 views

    Abraham y Sara deben confiar en Dios. Quizás hayas estado orando durante años por alguien o algo. Recuerde: Él es El Shaddai. Él es Dios Todopoderoso. Cuando nuestra situación se vuelve más imposible, Dios se muestra todopoderoso.

    Hay una pregunta filosófica que algunos hacen acerca de Dios y la afirmación es que algo es demasiado difícil para Dios. ¿Puede Dios hacer una roca tan grande que no pueda levantarla? No. El filósofo cree que de alguna manera ha burlado a Dios. Pero también Dios es tan ...read more

    Ishmael's story teaches us the importance of trusting God’s timing and avoiding decisions based on impatience. While human efforts can bring temporary success, only God’s promises bring true fulfilment.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF ISHMAEL – SON OF ABRAHAM AND HAGAR By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 16:10-12 "The angel of the Lord also said to her, 'I will surely multiply your offspring so that they cannot be numbered for multitude.' And the angel of the Lord said to her, 'Behold, ...read more

    What is it that God wants you to do with the one life he has given you? The life you have is a gift but will not be all it can be without your journeying into the unknown.

    Tangible verses Intangible. Abraham set free to be blessed and a blessing! Genesis 17:1-10 and 17:15-22.

    Genesis Chapter Seventeen Series

     | 1,855 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Seventeen. 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 SEVENTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that the covenant between God and Abram renewed. In the process, Abram’s name is changed and circumcision becomes a part of the agreement. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 17 God renews the covenant with Abram: changes ...read more

     | 30,510 views

    This message first looks at the frustration and responses Christians have when God does not act according to our plan and then the need for our response to trust Him.

    Waiting For God Genesis 16 1 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children. And she had an Egyptian maidservant whose name was Hagar. 2 So Sarai said to Abram, "See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing children. Please, go in to my maid; perhaps I shall obtain children by her." And ...read more

    God’s promises are fulfilled not by our strength or timing, but by His faithfulness, even when hope seems impossible and waiting feels endless.

    Good morning, friends. If your heart has ever ached in the waiting room of life—if you’ve watched calendars turn while prayers felt unanswered, if you’ve listened to the echo of your own questions and wondered whether God still remembers your name—then you are in good company today.

    A description of how Abram walked with God and God’s response back to Him.

    The Joys Of Walking With God Genesis 17 Today’s society thrives on big events, speed, noise, movement, and drama. But it is not hyperactivity that troubles us - it’s quietness.

    Fourth in a six-part series on the life of faith as seen in the person of Abraham

    Shortcuts to God’s will are not worth taking. In chapter 16, we read that Abram and Sarai decided that enough was enough; perhaps God meant that Abram would have a son by another woman, since Sarai was barren, and so she gave her maiden Hagar to Abram. Hagar conceived and bore Ishmael to Abram; ...read more
