Right Standing with God  - Part 2

As we look to the example of Abraham’s faith that was credited to him as righteousness, we learn to face life with courage and yet an unwavering faith in the God of promises, who is true to His Word. Today, we look at another couple of actions that Abraham intentionally took.

Abraham was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, says verse 20. The Amplified Bible says he grew strong and empowered by faith. Romans 10:17 says faith comes from hearing the message, the Word of God. Abraham gave glory to God by strengthening and displaying his faith in his God. How is your faith today? Are you making time to intentionally hear the Word of God, to listen to what the Lord is saying to you each day?

Verse 21 says Abraham was fully persuaded that God had the power to do what He had promised to do. Now that is the crux of the matter. Abraham knew for sure that the God he believed was more than able to make good His promise. He knew his God. He knew Him well enough, he knew what He could do, what He would not do, and who He was. Abraham knew his God and His power. Do you?

Father, give me the grace to strengthen my faith through listening to You through Your Word, so that I may know You more and more each day.
