In Genesis 12:1 The
Lord said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people and your father’s
household and go to the land I will show you.”
You know that sometimes obeying God has us leaving the things that make
us comfortable. God leads Abraham to the
land of Canaan.
Now earlier Abraham’s dad was traveling, look what the bible says ”they
set out to go to Canaan, but when they came to Haran, they settled there.” Abrahams dad had stopped. A lot of times we as Christians stop along
the way, we get comfortable and settle for something less. I don’t think it was easy for Abraham to
leave. He ran into famine, and had to go
to Egypt,
but he stayed obedient. It was probably
hard work and sweat. His wife may have
been all “where we going” and he’s all, umm this way.” But in the grand scheme of his life it was a
passing of just a moment of suffering to find God’s plan for his life. So how does it fair for Abraham in the
end? If you asked him he might say “YES”. Obeying God isn’t always easy at first, but
in the end you stand victorious, shining your light and praising the God of
heaven, cuz he knew better than you. Do the right thing.
