    We all got to shed away our old habits and life just like the way the caterpillar sheds its skin in order to evolve into a stunning, astounding and beautiful butterfly!

    Remove all the ‘Hagar and Ishmael’ Genesis 21:9”Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking…” Many of us feel that life would be hunky-dory after we receive answers to our prayers and when the miracle happens, but hang on there, with the arrival of the great ...read more

    Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah in their old age, was finally born! Sometime later, Abraham prepared a great feast to celebrate a milestone in Isaac's life. Something happened, and some found they had to leave. For good.

    Introduction: Abraham must have dearly loved Ishmael, his first-born son. Abraham had watched Ishmael grow to young manhood, even making sure he was circumcised along with Abraham and every male in the household. But now, something was about to happen, and Ishmael along with Hagar, his mother, were ...read more

    By faith we are to believe the promise of God, believe in the promised Redeemer. Through Isaac God was keeping his promise. Through the promised Redeemer, he has kept his promise to provide our redemption.

    Two Moms Who Couldn’t Get Along

    Does God only care about moms in the limelight, the Sarahs? Or does he also care about the disadvantaged moms, like the Hagars?

    Two Moms Who Couldn’t Get Along Genesis 21:1-21 1. Mother’s Day is a day we set aside to honor our moms. 2. Our world needs good moms, and many moms fit that bill. 3.

    We can learn much from the lives of Sarah and Hagar.

    Genesis 16 Verse 1 - Now Sarai Abram's wife gave him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. Sarai’s handmaid Hagar is introduced. Sarai had no children.

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-One. 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 TWENTY-ONE OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Isaac the promised child is born which causes strife between Hagar and Sarah. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 21 Isaac is born, is circumcised and weaned. At Sarah's request Hagar is driven out; to whom, ...read more
