PEOPLE THAT THINK WRONG, BELIEVE WRONG, YOU SPEAK WRONG, AND ACT WRONG

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE PRINCIPLES THAT CONTRIBUTE TO ABRAHAM’S PROSPERITY?

HE LISTENED TO GOD ()

Genesis 12:1–4 The Living Bible

1 God had told Abram, “Leave your own country behind you, and your own people, and go to the land I will guide you to. 2 If you do, I will cause you to become the father of a great nation; I will bless you and make your name famous, and you will be a blessing to many others. 3 I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you; and the entire world will be blessed because of you.” 4 So Abram departed as the Lord had instructed him, and Lot went too; Abram was seventy-five years old at that time.

HE HONORED GOD WHO PROSPERED HIM ()

Genesis 12:7 The Living Bible

7 Then Jehovah appeared to Abram and said, “I am going to give this land to your descendants.” And Abram built an altar there to commemorate Jehovah’s visit.

HE WAS GENEROUS AND AVOIDED STRIFE (:5-9)

Genesis 13:5–9 The Living Bible

5 Lot too was very wealthy, with sheep and cattle and many servants. 6 But the land could not support both Abram and Lot with all their flocks and herds. There were too many animals for the available pasture. 7 So fights broke out between the herdsmen of Abram and Lot, despite the danger they all faced from the tribes of Canaanites and Perizzites present in the land. 8 Then Abram talked it over with Lot. “This fighting between our men has got to stop,” he said. “We can’t afford to let a rift develop between our clans. Close relatives such as we are must present a united front! 9 I’ll tell you what we’ll do. Take your choice of any section of the land you want, and we will separate. If you want that part over there to the east, then I’ll stay here in the western section. Or, if you want the west, then I’ll go over there to the east.”
