According to Genesis chapter 11, Abram was married and had a stable life. However, his people were corrupted by idolatry. The Lord showed Himself to Abram and proposed him a challenge: Go from your country, your people and your father´s household to the land I will show you.” (Genesis 12:1)
The plan seemed risky, but there was a promise. The decision to leave the land was taken in secret. At that time, only he and God talked about it. Since he obeyed the Lord, he received the most awaited promise: his son, Isaac.
Do not let your fears, your sadness, your apprehension and other things prevent you from listening to God´s voice. Live in truth. Obey the Word and look up to the Lord´s promises. This way, you will see them being fulfilled in your life.
