Today’s Feast
Jan 15, 2015- Genesis 22
Can You Do This?
Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will
spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years1.
“12 Blessed is the man who endures
temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life
which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.” James 1:12 New King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by
reading the book of Genesis Chapter 22;
“Abraham's sojourn at Gerar, Sarah is taken by Abimelech. (1-8)
Abimelech's rebuke to Abraham. (9-13)
Abimelech restores Sarah. (14-18)
” - Matthew Henry Concise
As
we Feast in Genesis 22. God called to Abraham
telling him to take his son to the mountain and sacrifice him. Abraham
obeying God took his son preparing an offering; “9 Then they came to the place of
which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood
in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the
wood. 10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his
son. 11 But the Angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said,
“Abraham, Abraham!” So he said, “Here I am.” 12 And He said, “Do not lay your
hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God,
since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.”13 Then Abraham
lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a
thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for
a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 And Abraham called the name of the
place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the
Lord it shall be provided.”” Genesis
22:9-14 NKJV. Again we examine God’s mercy just as Abraham did
when God calls us to do something we should do it. For if we obey our Lord
without worrying, about the cost, or even if we already had accepted an
invitation to play cards, we just need to obey God. God will provide for the
task and they’ll have someone to talk about at the game tables that day. Then
for and by Jesus sake, we will finish the task and return to our Beersheba.
Beersheba means well of seven or well of the oath and it was Abrahams home. I
guess that’s why when asked what is the most important commandment Jesus
said; “29
Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel,
the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God
with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all
your strength.’ This is the first commandment.” Mark
12:29-30 NKJV. Then Jesus added; “31
And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
There is no other commandment greater than these.”“ Mark
12:31 NKJV. Can you do this? Now try
doing this right after your neighbor’s dog comes in your yard and does
something despicable, like digs in your flower bed or something.
“31
Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you
are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free.”
John
8:31-32 1:1-2 ESV
Do you want to accept
Jesus into your heart? If you answered yes you need fellowship and so do we.
Our salvation depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus
sacrificed his life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent (turn from sin)
and accept Jesus. We worship and fellowship in a Church (group of believers)
that strive to measures up to God’s Word. If you answered yes click the

If our Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast tomorrow.
God
Bless You,
Brother
