"Trust Him!"

Psalm 105:12-15

Intro—my week

Why we are taking a break from SIS

The passage is a call to remember, reflect and tell

Genesis 12:1–4 ESV

Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” So Abram went, as the Lord had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.

Trust Him--not your plans or ideal outcome

Thankfully he has a full itinerary

Had to trust God not lined out details

Abraham was so vulnerable

Trust Him—not your view of what you need

Blessing is not an absence of hardship

Blessing can be the removal of self reliance and trust

2 Corinthians 12:7-10

2021 or bring the house down

Trust Him—with our greatest need and then we can trust him with the smaller ones

Why Abraham and Israel

Deuteronomy 7:7-8

The greater promise and greater vulnerability for Abraham and us

A foreign concept and we can’t earn it or strengthen it

“Look at what I did now love me”

“I look at what my Son did and that is why I love you.”

Romans 4:2-5

2020, our problems, and greatest problem

Trust him or yourself —trust God or try to be god

Either you trust your hands or his hands but look what his hands have done
