We’ve been gleaning life lessons from Abraham, and this time, when Abraham meets with God. This is a special time when the Lord physically comes to Abraham and Sarah in preparation for a year from now when Sarah will bear Isaac. Last time we discussed how Abraham tried to make…
God’s covenant with Abraham was already in motion when Abraham tries to fulfill God’s promise by himself. Of course, he had some help. In the last issue, we discussed God’s covenant with Abraham and how God promised to give him an heir through Sarah and land for his descendants. But…
I took a small detour from Life Lessons from Abraham to talk about Life Lessons from Lot, but now that we’re back on Abraham’s life, we will be talking about God’s covenant with Abraham. You can also go back to the last issue on Abraham’s life. In this issue, we…

You could consider this part one of two. We will see Abraham's manufactured prosperity in Egypt in this issue, and in the next issue, you will see God-given prosperity. In my last issue, I opened up our character study on Abraham by talking about why he is considered the father…
I am beginning a new volume about Abraham, and in this issue, talking about Abraham the father of faith. In this volume, we will discover the life lessons we can take away from Abraham’s life. I’m excited to embark on this adventure with you! You hear people calling Abraham the…
Many people don’t realize the most extraordinary healing God did for women in the Old Testament. Without God opening the barren wombs of women in the Old Testament, He would never have brought about His plan for Israel and Jesus. In my last post, I described the ways God healed…
