Bible Reading: Gen. 21: 1 - 8
Topic: Isaac - The Child Of Promise
God promised to bless
Abraham with a son through Sarah (Gen. 15:4; 17: 15, 21; 18: 10 - 14) and He fulfilled
it when Abraham was 100 years and his wife 90 years of age.
This confirms God as
having impeccable and trusted integrity. Whatever He says or promises, He does
or fulfills.
What is that promise of
God to you, which is yet to come to pass?
Trust and hold onto it and
"Give Him no rest till He make Jerusalem a praise in the earth" (Isa.
62: 7; Matt. 7:7)
Abraham kept his own part
of the covenant with God in Gen. 17: 10, he circumcised Isaac (v. 4)
God is a covenant keeping
God (Ps. 50: 5)
Have you asked anything
from God? or have you made a vow or entered into any covenant with God? Abraham
did (v. 4); Hannah did (1 Sam. 1: 24 - 28)
Abraham made a great feast
when the child was weaned.
There is nothing to
compare with the thrill we have when our desire is fulfilled by God.
Prayer
Father as You fulfilled
Your promise by giving Abraham and Sarah a son, so I pray You to answer my
prayer to You, Amen.
Memory Verse Gen. 21: 5
"And Abraham was an
hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him."
