Yes, Lord!

Good Morning!! Apart from Jesus, Abraham very well could be, the most important person in the Bible. Often called " father of the faithful," it is with Abraham that the story of redemption really begins. For reasons unknown to us,...God calls this previously unheard of man, and promises him some unbelievable things. "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you and make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you and whoever curses you I will curse; and all the people on earth will be blessed through you." v.2,3.

The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you.—Genesis 12:1 (NIV)

 

You might think Abraham must have been quite a special person,...that he must have been super talented or greatly gifted. But that just wasn't the case, at all. There was nothing extraordinary in Abraham, that commended him to God. In fact, he came from a family of idol worshipers. It was his response, to the call of God, that made him special.

 

God did not call Abraham because he was a great person,...he became a great person because God called him,...and he answered; " Yes, Lord ! "

 

Amazingly, God calls us too,...and He has blessings with our name on them.
The question then becomes; are we ready and willing to answer; " Yes, Lord ! " ?

 

"Obedience, always leads to abundance."
