Genesis 15:2 And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus? 3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is my heir.
God through Joshua and Gideon shook down armies with trumpets, choirs were put in front of armies, to bring about victory through God, and the Hebrews crossed the Red Sea on foot. As the strait of Hormuz is currently blockaded, persons would be surprised if they saw folks crossing the strait on foot, while oil tankers are stuck. Waiting upon God brings the impossible into view, and the impossible will characterize the experiences of the remnant during crunch time.
But we will first have to learn how to wait upon God. This is the very important lesson that Abraham, and Sarah learned the hard way, and the results of their failures remain to this day. Recently, the president of the United States called on Saudi Arabia to sign onto the Abraham accord, as a prerequisite to allowing nuclear developments in that country. But have you ever wondered why the name of Abraham is in the accord? It sends us back to the time when he failed to wait upon God.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The President on Thursday appeared to add a condition to the newly signed agreement with Saudi Arabia for a civilian nuclear program, saying the deal would require the kingdom to normalize its relations with Israel through the Abraham Accords. Accord meaning: Merriam Webster dictionary: To bring into agreement: reconcile: to be consistent or in harmony: to agree, to arrive at an agreement.
Genesis 15:4 And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
