TOPIC: ATTRACTING GOD’S BLESSINGS II (OBED1ENCE)

BIBLE TEXT: Genesis 12:1-9
[1]Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
[2]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:
[3]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.
[4]So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
[5]And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
[6]And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
[7]And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
[8]And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
[9]And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.

INTRODUCTION: God chose one man, Abram, to be the beginning of a whole new nation that would be called God’s people. He told Abram to leave his home and his relatives and begin traveling. Abram took his wife, Sarai, and his nephew, Lot, and left his home and traveled and lived in tents. The Lord also told Abram that his name would be great and that the whole world would be blessed through this new nation. Abram believed God and obeyed.

PROGRESSION OF EVENT: Genesis 12:1-9

1. One day God told Abram to leave his country and his relatives and to go to a new land that he would show him.
2. God did not say where the new land was, He just told Abram to go and that He would show him later
3. Abram and his relatives left their home country forever and would live in tents and travel around wherever God told them to go.
4. In the land of Canaan God told Abram to have a good look around that someday Abram’s children and grandchildren would own this land.

GOSPEL CONNECTION: God loved Abram and Sarai but God also loved all of the other families in the world so God made a plan to bless everyone. God sent His Son Jesus to take the punishment for our sins so that we can be blessed when we trust and obey Him. (Proverbs 3:5)

5. They stopped in a place called Shechem so that Abram could build an altar of stone and worship God and later they stopped in a place called Bethel and did the same thing.

CLIMAX: Later they would go to other places, like Egypt but Abram continued to obey God

CONCLUSION: And God kept his promises to Abram and protected him. God had a special plan for Abram.

CHALLENGE: Abram trusted and obeyed God and was able to follow God’s directions. God wants you to follow all His directions and obey Him because you have put your trust n Jesus. The bible says in Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust the Lord completely, and don’t depend on your counseling. With every step you take, think about what God wants, and He will help you go the right way. Trust God in all things this week and obey all that He tells you to do

INVITATION: You need to put your trust in Jesus by calling on Him as Lord and Saviour to be able to obey Him in all things (Romans 10:13)
