BY FAITH 7

Hebrews 11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

 

There is a lot said in this Chapter about Abraham.  Abraham was a man who believed God and showed his faith in God in many instances.  While some of the others might seem more dramatic this one has always really impressed me.  He gathered all his belongings and his family and left all that he was familiar with (except for Lot) and began a lifetime journey without knowing where He was going.

 

So many times we don't want to step out on faith. We expect God to reveal all the details to us when he calls us.  I learned a long time ago that is just not how it works.  God seems to always say to me, "You start.  You take the next step and then I will reveal what you need to know as you need to know it."

 

Sometimes it can be kind of frightening.  What we have to learn is that the destination is not important.  The dangerous of the journey are of no consequence.  If God says go...He will always go with us.  That is what is important.
