America is a very mobile society. We move every 5 to seven years sometimes from one
coast to the next. Usually, when we move, we have it all laid out. We know where we are
going, we have a job waiting for us, and we have a place to live ready for our arrival.
Have you ever thought about Abraham? He was happy living with his friends and relatives
in the wonderful land of Haran. All is right with the world and Abraham probably believes
he will be there till the day he dies, BUT God has other plans for this man!
God calls Abraham (Abram as he was known then) to, “Get thee out of thy country, and
from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will
make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou
shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee:
and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:1-3; KJV).
Abram does not know where he is going, what he and his family will encounter, or any sort
of time schedule of when he will arrive. Yet he simply goes (Genesis 12:4,5)! What faith he
displayed!
What about us? Would we have went if we had got the call? Friends, God has called us!
We are called by the call of the gospel (2 Thessalonians 2:14)! How have you answered?
Are you living by faith (Hebrews 11:1-6)? Where will eternity find you?
Let us believe, obey, and stay faithful to the Lord and His word. Let us live for Jesus!
Stay true to the Word,
Brother Travis
