ABRAHAM' BLESSING

Im sorry for staying away for so long.
I was reading through Zoe's blog and got inspired to do this.
Abraham's blessing is ours only and if we can do all he did that retained the blessing all through his life time.
There was a time i was afraid that what blessing has been given to me might be over and what will be my lot.
God that has been ever faithful called my attention to Abraham. He asked me to read through His word, if abraham was ever poor all through his life time.I should also know that he passed down his blessing, not only to his biological children,that all those who through faith in our Lord are partakers of Abraham's blessing.
That led me to studying the things Abraham did that made him retained God's blessing through generations.
OBEDIENCE;
He was obedience to the commanndment of God.Obedience is not questioning all He ask us to do. We obey even when it looks stupid and we can not make any meaningful thing out of what He ask us to do.
GIVING;
Abraham gave according to how he was prospered.We should recognise that what we have in the fist instance was given to us. We shuld not withhold when we are presentend with the opportunity to give. It should not be only money that could be giving. What about our time, encouragement, having a listening ear and also all that is within your power to give.
FRIENDLINESS:
Yes o, Abraham made himself available for God to be his friend. God seeks to be our friend, but most times, we are unavailable.How do we treat those we call our friends? we make out time for them, not a one time in a long while thing, but quality time.We try to be with them alone for a while to disuss matters that are so important.
TRUSTING:
He trusted God in everything. He was always belving that if He said it, He will make it good. Let us trust Him in all His leading.
My dear blogger, i am a living testimony that,after taking time to read and follow these principles myfear disappeared and even at the face of a time of lack,i still hold unto His word that never fails.
So, i do not only sing Abraham's blessing are mine but live like Abraham lived.

We have to hold on to God's word and promise. That is the only way to go. The more we walk with Him, the more we become like Him.
