Program for 06/27/18 SAS Devotions: Genesis 22:20-23:20, Buying a Grave
Program for 03/27/18 Covenant Community Church, Easter Week: 1 Corinthians 15, As a Matter of Fact
It's good to have boundaries. Abraham knowing this made a public transaction to purchase burial land from the Hethites. This would matter not only for his time but also for future generations. We need to be prepared for our final resting place. Our bodies that wear out will come back as a resurrected body if we are in Christ. God will bring us back as something beautiful in the resurrection. Abraham knew that physical death is not the end.
God told Abraham to take his son Isaac to a particular place. This was not just any mountain but one of great significance. It is not our job to make things happen. Our job is not to step in and make things happen. The will of God for our lives is to believe and obey Jesus. It is very important to know and listen to God's voice. If we are in Christ we are His dearly loved children. God's intention for us today is a deeper walk with God than even Abraham had. God's plan will include things we did not choose and exclude things that we would have chosen. His ways are greater than our ways. We need to obey.
