Kid Chat
Disloyalty can be seen in the relationships between the kings.
Chedorlaomer appears to have gained power over the other kings to they paid tribute.
Some of them rebelled and refused to pay.
The battle forms as Chedorlaomer and 4 more go against 4 others.
These were what we think of as city-states from history, not so much sprawling kingdoms like the Roman or Ottoman empires.
For whatever reason the king of Elam was rebelled against and all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah were taken along with Lot, Abram’s nephew.
In that battle the kings aligned with Sodom planned to draw the others into the tar pits outside Sodom (next to the Dead Sea) but wound up falling into them themselves.
Loyalty - As a characteristic of God we usually call it faithfulness.
He is ultimately faithful to Himself.
If He werent, He wouldnt be God.
We see this through the relationship between Father and Son.
Would we have stayed true or taken Him off the cross?
The Son was loyal to the Father.
The Father was loyal to Himself.
Lest we see that as narcissistic or self-centered or anything less than completely gracious: God is the creator of all.
Has all knowledge and power.
Knows the beginning from the end.
Is just and true and good.
He has aimed His knowledge, power, just, true and good at mankind!
God to Abram
God to Abram - The heart of the promise to Abram was that he was chosen.
Abram did not decide he would be anything.
He simply responded to God’s statement about him.
What does God say about me that I could respond to?
Another part of the promise was that God would bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him.
This has held true down through the ages.
Many peoples have raised their hand against the nation that came through the promise and God has fought their battles.
Abram to Lot
His rescue of Lot follows his offer to Lot to take his choice of land.
He had, after all, taken Lot with him when he left his homeland.
He was the patriarchal influence in the absence of his own father.
God to Us - The heart of the promise to us is that we are chosen.
Us to each other
If Abram’s loyalty to Lot is part of this story, then our loyalty to each other is something we can embrace as well.
So what is it to love you as much as I love me?
When I am as concerned about your spiritual, physical and emotional well-being as I am my own then I love you as much as I love myself.
I owe a debt of love to all mankind in the spiritual realm.
There is no one alive today that doesnt deserve to hear the Good News I have.
Putting myself in a mindset and geographical location to present this news is part my life calling.
It is yours as well.
My loyalty to the Father.
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.”
And so I ask the Holy Spirit today: Do I? I dont ask Him if you do.
