CAN I TRUST GOD?
Part 6: 40 Year Faith Journey |
|
Most Christians believe that God loves them but they
have difficulty when it comes to trusting Him to take care of them.
Abraham was no exception. He was your typical religious person who
was more concerned about his own self than what God was doing.
Abraham had no real understanding that God wanted to build a family
which would eventually become a nation to receive the future
Messiah. Jesus personally visited Abraham, shared a meal with him,
and explained the promised heir was finally coming. Jesus wanted
Abraham involved in His work on earth and told him that He was going
to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham was concerned about innocent
people being killed and acted like an attorney to negotiate a deal
for them. Later, he lied to King Abimelech and God’s prophet was
scolded for his moral failure by an idolatrous king. Jesus was very
patient with Abraham. After four decades, this Chaldean from the
lineage of Shem finally reached the place where he trusted God
completely. |
