Sermon Notes
Date: 11/20/2016
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Genesis
Key Text: Genesis 13
Description: Are you resting in the promises of God? Abram did.
He gave his nephew, Lot, choice of the land. His nephew looked around – and even though the people who lived there were exceedingly wicked – his choice was clear: the fertile valley. It was lush, and it pleased him.
Abram gave up his preference of the land and instead rested in the promises of God.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Genesis and shares with us that, oftentimes, the way of the Christian may not seem as profitable as the way of the world. Lot’s way was fertile, and the people lived in cities. Abram’s way was arid, and he lived in tents. But while one way sees the “fertile valley” and a future of possibilities, the other is the sure way. …For it sees the living God who owns the cattle on a thousand hills.
