A Word From Pastor….

Put away treacherous actions and embrace God’s way of living. Genesis 20:9-11 (NLT) 9 Then Abimelech called for Abraham. “What have you done to us?” he demanded. “What crime have I committed that deserves treatment like this, making me and my kingdom guilty of this great sin? No one should ever do what you have done! 10 Whatever possessed you to do such a thing?” 11 Abraham replied, “I thought, ‘This is a godless place. They will want my wife and will kill me to get her. Dear Church family and friends, today our 2010 devotional of the 10 reminds us that God wants us to trust him with every area of our lives. Sometimes we think we need to take care of the “difficult things” for God, and when we do, we fail to follow his ways. Abraham obeyed the Lord and began on his journey with Sarah his wife. Along the way he encountered fear that king Abimelech would have him killed if he knew they were married. Abraham chose to lie to try and protect his life. God called him out by visiting Abimelech in a dream.How often do we feel we must “help God out” as we try to live by faith in our life journey? God wants us to trust him with all the details and exercise our faith to allow God to see us through the tough parts of the journey. The great news about this story was that God’s mercy was there to keep Abraham on the right path even when his flesh was temporarily in the way. Let’s trust God with everything going on in our lives. If you have been helping God out, it is time to give everything over to him. – Pastor Greg
