THE SECRET OF ABRAHAM
(18 votes)
OVERVIEW
SCRIPTURE: And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. – James 2:23
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Analysis of Divine instruction leads to the paralysis of destiny.
Abraham was an enviable patriarch in scripture that God identified with. He walked with and was so intimate with God that he was called the friend of God (James 2:23).
One notable secret of Abraham was dedication. Dedication to God gave Abraham the place he found himself in life. InGenesis 12:2-3, God told Abraham to come out of his father’s house and he obeyed.
Obedience is the key to eminence in life. Obedience to God makes one prominent and relevant in life. Show me an obedient man and I will show you a prominent and eminent man
Abraham obeyed God’s instruction to pray without ceasing. InGenesis 19:27, Abraham would always get up early in the morning to stand before God at the place of prayer. That was why in his generation, nobody was bigger than him.
Our God is not a Respecter of persons but a Respecter of His principles. Abraham obeyed the principles of God and he became great in life. His name cannot be erased from history forever.
Beloved, determine to be like Abraham. Do not analyze Divine instructions because analysis of Divine instruction leads to the paralysis of destiny. Repent from every attitude of disobedience to Divine instructions.
Remember this: Analysis of Divine instruction leads to the paralysis of destiny.
