24.28: Genesis 15: Abram Learns to have Patience and Trust the Promise of God

Abram, so far, obeyed God by leaving his ancestral home in Ur of the  Chaldeans to go to the land of the Canaanites. Then God tells Him —  actually makes a covenant — a deal — a contract — a promise — to Abram  that he will have many descendants. However, Abram starts getting a tad  impatient and a bit doubtful. That happens to all of us. But God affirms  His promise in a way that Abram understands. (Or does he?) Let’s dig  in…. Keep reading in my blog where there are links to dig deeper and watch the special music video at the bottom…. Jesus said, “Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.” ~ ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - This phrase is repeated 14 times in scripture. Kind of gives the idea that God wants us to pay attention.  If you want to reap all the benefits of salvation including the 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven then… Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit.  Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly… “Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I surrender my whole life to you and I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Jesus is coming back soon! Are you ready?
