You Will be Blessed

But Abram said, "Lord God, what can You give me since I am childless and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?" Abram continued, "Look, You have given me no offspring, so a slave born in my house will be my heir."

Now the word of the a lord came to him: " This one will not be your heir, instead, one who comes from your own body will be your heir." He took him outside and said, "Look at the sky and count the stars, if you are able to count them." Then He said to him, "Your descendants will be that numerous."

Abram believed The Lord and He credited it to him as righteousness. Genesis 15:2-6

For a man who had longed for children all his life and to now have the God of heaven promise to give him a multitude of children, how would this be?

Would Abram have struggled to believe? Or did he eagerly believe? God had mentioned a blessing to Abram and his offspring before but now Abram wanted to know, the question was out,

Do you judge your relationship with God by something that you lack and wonder why it is missing? Has God given you a promise, whispered it to your deep recesses? Do you doubt yourself or God?

When we struggle to believe in a promise made by God we are prone to act out our unbelief and take an option that does not fit. Abram is no different to us and yet God bothered with him. What does that tell you? God is fickle? Or God is loving and kind?

I see God is patient and kind. God was working in Abram's life to mould him into a man after his own heart! This is what He does to us. If He has promised you something then it will surely come to pass, speak it into being, don't moan about it's absence. Praise it into being and release God to be God. Amen!
