FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Combination of tough challenges and confusion is not enough for excuse to disobey the word of God.<\/p>\n

Genesis 22<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/strong>The combination of tough challenges and confusion will lead to making up excuses to disobey the word of God. However, before God there is no excuse-able excuse that is acceptable before God. Man that is fully obedient to the word of God without any reason for excuse to disobey the word of God will place man for God\u2019s uncommon blessing. It is written, \u201cNow it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, \u201cAbraham! \u201cAnd he said, \u201cHere I am.\u201d Then He said, \u201cTake now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.\u201d (Genesis 22:1-2)
\n<\/em><\/strong>After having waited for years to have a son, a call to go and offer the only son as a burnt offering can be exceedingly challenging. It was a call to be tested. Also the lack of direction to the exact mountain, among many mountains could have been confusing. The combination of tough challenges and confusion will lead to making up excuses. Abraham did himself a great favor when he was right with God. Abraham responded to God without excuse. Abraham\u2019s responding action is what communicates the truth that he did not complain. Often, people respond with non-verbal way of communicating against God\u2019s command. The Bible described\u2019 Abraham\u2019s response, \u201cSo Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.\u201d (Genesis 22:3) <\/em><\/strong>Without excuse for disobedient to God, Abraham rose up to God\u2019s calling and that led him into possessing all of the promises of God. Rising up and answering to God\u2019s command is the only way to place man in the center of receiving the promises of God.
\nCan you think of what is keeping you from obeying the word of God fully? In all of your walk and work on the face of the earth, is there any area you have allowed disobedient to the word of God? The lost son (Prodigal son) disobeyed against his father to move for his portion of goods before the appointed time. In his walk and work he suffered and he could not rise above challenges. When he came to himself, he made a decision by stating, \u201cI will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, \u201cFather, I have sinned against heaven and before you.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>The prodigal son knew to rise against his disobedient and seek his father for deliverance and preservation.
\nAre you experiencing combination of tough challenges and confusion in your walk and work? Let God\u2019s word take of your walk and work.<\/p>\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong> Ask for the glory to be obedient to the word of God in all your walk and work.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
