Our pastor and message Brucemith from Harbers Shappel International Commercy.
-
Let us kind of share a word of prayer. Gracious Father,
-
thank you for the privilege to fellowship with you in
-
your word. Once again. We pray, O God, that your
-
words will fall on the fertile grounds of our heart.
-
Grant as grace to be two words of your word
-
in Jesus Mighty name. We pray with thanksgiving. A man,
-
let us kindly affirm my faith. From Joshua chapter one,
-
verse eight. Joshua Chapter one, verse eight. This book of
-
the Law shall not depart out of my mouth, but
-
I shall meditate in it day and night, that I
-
may observe to do according to all that is written
-
in it. For then I will make my way prosperous,
-
and then I will have good success. A man, the
-
thing for today's devotion is hope on in faith hope
-
on in faith. A script written by Pastor and Missus
-
degraphed Deterier and a scripture reading will be taken from
-
Romance chapter four, verse eighteen to twenty. Romance chapter four,
-
verse eighteen to twenty, reading from their new Living Translation.
-
Even when there was no reason for hope, Abraham kept hoping,
-
believing that he would become the father of many nations.
-
For God had said to him, that's how many descendants
-
you will have. And Abraham's faith did not weaken, even though,
-
at about one hundred years of age, he figured his
-
body was as good as dead, and so was Sarah's womb.
-
Abraham never wavered in believing God's promise. In fact, his
-
faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God.
-
Made the Lord add his blessing to the reading and
-
hearing of his word, and all shall respond Thanks be
-
to God. Hope on in faith, hope on in faith.
-
When God told Abraham and Sarah they would have their
-
very own son, Sarah was already seventy five, and by
-
the time the promise was fulfilled, she was over ninety.
-
Abraham was about one hundred medically biologically and historically. It
-
had never happened. It was the kind of situation that
-
invites out we are too old. We must have heard
-
God wrong. It's never going to happen. But scripture doesn't
-
record them drifting into unbelief. It says Abraham's faith. They
-
did not weaken. Abraham never waved in believing God's promise,
-
even when his body and cyrus won felt as good
-
as dead. He kept hoping, not because the situation improved,
-
but because he knew that God, who made the promise,
-
was supernatural. When our faith begins to waiver, it only
-
means that we are measuring God's word against our timeline,
-
our age, our bank account, or our past failures. Abraham
-
refused to do that. Instead, his faith grew stronger, and
-
in this he brought glory to God. They are waiting
-
didn't waken them, and rather an caored them deeper in God.
-
There may be so reasons why your situation seems hopeless.
-
A dog closed, you lost your job, a diagnos this
-
came back. The years are stacking up, and that promise
-
of God concerning your marriage, academics, business, children feels delayed.
-
Precious one, God is calling you to the same posture
-
that Abraham had hope born in faith, not hope in
-
your ability to figure it out, but hope in the
-
God who is able to do whatever he promises. Abraham's
-
faith story teaches us that God's promises don't have an
-
expiry date. They don't get canceled by time, age, or impossibility.
-
When we choose, like Abraham to not waiver, but to believe,
-
we earner God and reposition ourselves to see his word
-
come to pass. Dear one, rekindle your hope today by
-
holding on tightly to that word. What God promised you
-
he is still faithful to bring to pass. And as
-
you keep believing, your faith won't just survive the weight,
-
it will grow stronger and it will bring glory to God.
-
A man, let us kindly take our memory. Verse from
-
Romance chapter four vers. Twenty Roman Chapter four as twenty,
-
reading from the New Living Translation. Abraham never wavered in
-
believing God's promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and
-
in this he brought glory to God. Abraham never wavered
-
in believing God's promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger,
-
and in this he brought glory to God. Aing man,
-
let us kindly share a word of prayer. Father, in
-
the name of Jesus, we thank you for your wad
-
that has come to us this morning. We pray for grace, Lord,
-
to keep trusting when the going gets tough, when all
-
other things and all situations in our lives seem contrary
-
to your promise. Please grant us grace and help us
-
to still keep holding on to the praise and glory
-
of your name until that which you have promised is
-
made manifest in our lives. In Jesus' mighty name, we
-
have prayed with thanksgiving. A in Man God bless you
