I AM DONE WITH PROMISES
GENESIS 21:22-34

While the book of Genesis continues lessons as to how we are to live our lives in Christ, that is, walking in obedience before the Lord, we do not want to assume that this obedience is disassociated with grace. Grace is not absent, but a dominant theme that overshadows the contents of the entire book. In our introduction we will observe the correctness of this understanding. The main body of the message will deal the oath/covenant that Abraham made with Abimelech. Why did he "swear an oath" or "make a covenant" with Abimelech? What relevance is that to us in 2022? What role do oaths and promises play in our lives today? Are oaths Biblical? Certainly they took place under the Old Covenant, but what of the New Covenant? We will reflect on answers to these questions in today's sermon and see how the answers to these questions "bleed over" into our daily lives, into our relationships with others.

The chapter closes with Abraham calling God the Everlasting or Eternal God. The reason why he does so is hidden in the text and relevant to us.

God bless you and may God empower His witness through the church in the midst of a dying world.

PROMISES, PROMISES (PART 3)
GENESIS 21:22-34

Today as we forge ahead in our study of Genesis 21, we will take a look back considering the source and substance of our trials, difficulties, challenges, struggles of our lives. From where do these come and what is the purpose? We will consider the patriarchs of our faith and how these difficulties worked in their lives and then how they work in our lives, as well. Moving on from there, we will observe the continued relationship between Abimelech and Abraham. An interesting twist has taken place in their relationship between chapter 20 (five years earlier) and chapter 21. A change has taken place in both men. What was the cause of that change? We will discover the cause of this change and then see how what happed in Abraham's life also is that which, hopefully, occurs in the lives of believers as they live "by faith in the Son of God" in this world.

May the Lord strengthen your faith in Him through the power of His wondrous grace,
