2 Timothy 2:1-13 Rev. Bob Skinner leads us through Paul's final letter, a letter he wrote to his "son in the LORD." It is an appeal to the young pastor to remain faithful in the face of persecution and trial.
Genesis 19:1-29 details GOD's just judgment on the city of Sodom and its inhabitants. Lot is a man spared by the intercessory prayer of a loving uncle Abraham. Who might be saved as we faithfully pray?
Genesis 18:1-15 Abraham was surprised by the unexpected arrival of three visitors for lunch. This presented him with an opportunity for service, and he extended that to his household. His obedience freed him up to draw closer to GOD and receive a new revelation of GOD and himself!
Genesis 17, GOD comes to Abraham to confirm his promises. Abraham shows an extraordinary balance between faith and incredulity. Don't we all!
Genesis 17:1 GOD introduces Himself to Abraham as Jehovah El Shaddai "the Almighty." This is GOD who reigns over all creation and bends nature to His will. He can give Abraham children, and this introduction is proof of the promise!
Genesis 16, Sarai's handmaid, Hagar has had enough! She heads back to Egypt where she's from and encounters the GOD who sees her and values her for who she is, not what she does.
