    Sometimes We Need To look Up From Where We Are To Where We Are Going

    Our text starts in Genesis 13:14-18. And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, lift up now thine eye and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward, and eastward and westward. God told Abram, "Look up from where you are." This is my message. I know it ...read more

     | 2,901 views

    A look at what happens when we step outside of God’s plans (Abraham), and when our lives get messed up by others (Hagar).

    Genesis 16:1-16 – Only the Lonely We see Abraham wanting to have a God-promised child, but taking the matter into his own hands to make sure it happened. At his wife’s advice, Abraham slept with his wife’s maidservant, Hagar. She got pregnant and created some problems for herself. Abraham let ...read more

    Mother’s Day sermon for the Single Mothers

    When we speak of single mothers, we are not referring to the marital status a child’s mother. Nor am I talking about those women who have decided for the child that the father is not necessary. We are not discussing those mothers that believe that Fatherhood is a nonessential role in child ...read more

    The focus of this sermon is the important of young boys and men having positive male roles such as fathers, and uncles actively participating in their lives.

    "Dear Dad" Genesis 21:8-21 By Reverend A. LaMar Torrence, Cross of Life Lutheran Church When I read the story of Ishmael, I wonder what he would say to his father Abraham after being cast out of his home. I imaged him as young man who may have one day, sat down and wrote his father a “Dear Dad” ...read more

    Wells represent life, prosperity and abundance. No wonder numerous biblical characters from Abraham to Isaac, Jacob and Moses -even our Lord Jesus Christ had a story to tell besides a well. What is the significance of wells? What kind of wells do we have

    By Bode Ayodele Wells play a very vital role in the bible. Many important bible characters located their blessings besides - or had something to do with wells. Why are wells so important? What are the different kinds of spiritual wells in existence and what roles do they play in our lives today? ...read more

    God keeps His promises even though people make mistakes and God’s ultimate promise is grace, peace, godliness and eternal life through Jesus Christ!

    Why is there war in the Mideast? Some say it’s because of the land; some say it’s religious. Just like anything else, the important question is always, “What does God say?” As we have been studying the Book of Genesis, we have been learning the origins of many things in our lives today. Why is ...read more

    Every Mother's Child Matters

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 7, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,773 views

    Sarah's me-ism blinded her to Ishmael's value; Abraham's comfort blinded him to how best to support Hagar and Ishmael; Hagar, like many of our mothers, had to trust God in the desert. We today must support the Hagars of this world.

    The barren landscape seemed to dance before her eyes, as she looked toward a horizon littered with debris, strewn with the rubbish of thousands of careless people who had gone this way. Filthy and dirty as it was, though, it seemed to dance before her eyes, for the sun was high above and hot; the ...read more

    DIVORCE is never pleasant, especially when children are involved, but Abraham doesn’t count on them getting lost. Most people don’t stop to think about the consequences of divorce or how much it will effect the next generations.

    Part 3 - Genesis 21:14-21 - MY KINGDOM FOR A GPS! When we left to Pastor a Church in the Whitsundays we left our children, Ben and Rachel, behind in Sydney.

    The story of Sarai, Hagar, and Abram is really a story about how people deal with issues of faith . . . especially when our faith is being tested by God’s providence.

Scripture: Galatians 4:21-31 Genesis 16:1-4; 21:8-14 Yesterday, as I was reviewing the scriptures in Genesis, I noticed something that hadn’t struck me before.
