Genesis 15: 8 And Abram said, O Lord Jehovah, what shall I know that I will possess it?
Each of us has already received a word of knowledge one day:
* You will get married, you will travel, you will have a child, you will be rich, your problems are solved … *
Time passes, we have nothing, we do not see anything.
Tired at one point, we ask ourselves this question, the same question that Abraham asked the Lord.
This interrogation borders on a doubt, a curiosity.
Yes, yes
There is a time like that.
We ask ourselves: ‘Until when, Lord? How long do I have to wait? *
But the truth is that God does everything in his time.
Thursday, God told us about restitution, yesterday he told us to achieve with what we received.
This morning, the eternal is more concrete.
Abraham was old, he was in the evening of his life, he already planned his succession, he saw his end come but God comes to talk to him about a heratige to come.
Imagine this, we are overkill, but the Lord tells us that we will have orphanages or a business.
We look at each other, we can not take a motorbike, a bus, or a taxi to get around because of lack of money, we walk super long distances to evangelize, in our pockets not even a radish ….
It is therefore normal to stop to ask questions.
And that’s what Abraham did.
He did not want to have everything on the spot, but he needed a glimmer of hope, a base on which to lean, a proof to testify or to grasp the word of the Lord.
We can think that Abraham sinned, no.
He was a man, made of flesh and bones.
We ask ourselves this question from time to time.
We need a child, the years go by, not even a delay yet God has opened our womb.
We need a husband, no one looks at us, does not greet us on the road yet we have a word in our life on which we rely.
To wait is good
Hope is good but the question in its place.
And that’s why God gives us an opportunity today: Ask the Lord to give you a glimpse of your future possessions.
In 1 Kings 17-19
Elijah prayed, he asked for rain, he announced the rain but the nature was beautiful, sunny …
He waited, it must have happened, he remained in prayer until we came to tell him that we see a cloud and that we hear a noise.
And God excuses her.
It was a foretaste of what God could bestow, a hint of the gifts that this prophet could have. Let us ask this question this morning with faith.
And let us see God activate the process of our belongings.
Good people of God
Have a nice day
