Genesis 21:9-21 WHAT AILETH THEE? Intro : The Bible is a book of hope. It is a book filled with stories of love, power, faith, and glory. It is a book with a message of grace, peace, salvation, redemption, and miracles. Yet, the Bible is a book filled with impossible, hopeless situations. Stories appear…

Time and time again, we see where Abraham’s faith waivers then grows, waivers then grows. It seems when things are on the up, Abraham has a boldness like no other. But when his faith waivers, he repeatedly fails God. In Genesis 12 , God promises a great nation would come from the descendents of Abram…

Persevering Through Silence How many of us would continue in a relationship where no one has spoken to you for years? Do you consider it a valid relationship? No, it would almost be more of a “friendship”. I mean, we have friends that we may not have spoken to in a long time but immediately can strike…

God Himself There are many words of comfort found in scripture. This morning, I am going to focus on two words found together often in scripture, “but God”.

I would consider myself a decent waiter. I mean by that “good at waiting,” not someone who serves food at a restaurant. I’d make a lousy waiter, but I’m a world-class waiter. I’ve spent hours waiting in the doctor’s office; days, even weeks, in the waiting room with family and friends and church family.…

Genesis 21:1-21 The Lord came to Sarah as He had said, and the Lord did for Sarah what He had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the appointed time God had told him. Abraham named his son who was born to him—the one Sarah bore to him—Isaac. When his son Isaac…

We’re doing things a bit differently. Ordinarily, I go verse by verse, chapter by chapter, in order. Last week, though, we jumped around a bit and observed the last portions of chapters 21 and 22. We finished Abraham’s story with Abimelech and saw the covenant they made with one another, and also saw…

Gen 18.1 - 22.24 , 2 Kings 4:1-37 , Luke 17:28-37 Then the Lord appeared to him by the terebinth trees of Mamre, as he was sitting in the tent door in the heat of the day. That word ‘appeared’ carries with it a sense of purpose – God does not appear without purpose or expectations. He appears so that…

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh at Shechem. At that…

Building a People of God With Unusual Characters: Abram-Abraham Abraham is the second unusual character I am teaching about from the Biblical records of who God uses to build his people.

We are back in our study of the book of Genesis today. In our series THE PROMISE, we come to Genesis chapter 19 today. If you have read the text or are familiar with the story, you can probably understand why I’m always tempted to focus on the sin of the outsiders in texts like this. They are so obvious…

That may Some things to notice: The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. Most of us read this verse and we probably don’t think much about what we read. But if you were a Jew, the word LORD would spark all sorts…

The waiting game What about me? There is a danger in reading a text like we have today. Abram and Sarai were pagan’s. Spent years going against God’s will. Yet God blesses them The temptation when we look at someone like Abram is “What about me? ” I come to church, I try to do the right things… i”m not…
