Genesis 16:8 “The
angel said to Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where have you been and where are you
going?... Return to your mistress and submit to her authority.”
O. Hagar ran away learning that she had become pregnant with
Abram’s son and she was mad at Sarai.
A. 1. Hagar needed to return to the problem and face it head
on. She needed to go the direct cause in order to seek comfort and peace. She
needed to work on her attitude towards authority. 2. Submit to authority. No
matter how justified we feel it is running away from our problems will never
solve them. Face them head on and ask God to help.
P. God help me to face my fears
and tribulations head on. I don’t want to beat around the bush, I want to go
full speed ahead knowing that I can with the strength that comes from only you.
Genesis 18-9-10 “Where is your wife Sarah? They asked. In the tent
Abraham replied. Then one of them said, About this time next year, your wife
will have a son.”
O. God was keeping his promise to Abraham even though
Abraham was still in disbelief.
A. God did and still does keep his promises to us. He
follows through on everything he says he will do.
P. Lord, help me to remember all of your promises over my
life. And that I not only remember them, but believe in them.
