The Abrahamic Covenant: The Dangers Of Doing God's Word In Mans Way | Genesis 16.:1-6
from Journey Community Church Fontana · host Journey Community Church in Fontana
This sermon examines Genesis 16:1-6, focusing on how Abraham and Sarah's faith began to drift, leading them to rely on worldly solutions rather than trusting God's promises. When Sarah remained barren after ten years in Canaan, she suggested that Abraham take her Egyptian maidservant Hagar to produce an heir, following the cultural practices of their former homeland in Mesopotamia. This decision, rooted in the Hammurabi Code rather than God's covenant, resulted in pride, blame-shifting, and family breakdown. The sermon warns against doing God's work through man's methods, emphasizing that when faith drifts, believers often return to old coping mechanisms and worldly ways, which ultimately leads to chaos and destruction in relationships.CLICK ME: Sermon OutlineINSTAGRAMTIKTOKYOUTUBEWEBSITE
