Bible Verse of The Day – 6-24-20

Genesis 13:14-15 (NKJV) 14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; 15 for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.

While reading and studying about Abraham, something really stood out to me; Abraham put God first in everything and honored Him the best he knew how. And because of that, God blessed Abraham in everything he did.

You see, Abraham took the extra time to give God glory and honor everywhere he went. He built altars and made sacrifices to honor His name.

And everywhere new that Abraham traveled to, he built another altar, as though proclaiming that this was God’s land.

Abraham was also not afraid to give and share of his wealth. And he never took what wasn’t his.

We can learn a lot from studying Abraham. We can learn how to honor God and put Him first. We can learn how to be generous. We can learn how to be upright. We can learn how to be a blessing to God and to others. And we can learn how to be blessed by God.

Abraham’s life wasn’t perfect. He was human, after all. But God’s word shows us that in the grand scheme of things, he did very well with his life.

Most importantly, because he trusted God and believed whatever God told Him, God credited it to him as righteousness.

Genesis 15:6 (NKJV) 6 And he believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.

Let’s learn from Abraham and apply what we learn to our lives, so we can be a blessing to God and others, and God can bless us too!
