From the Blessing of Abram to the Blessing of Bethlehem (Divine Promises week 2)
Manage episode 389230653 series 3284416
Join us for an enlightening live church service where we jump into the second week of our series, "Divine Promises". This week, we focus on a thought-provoking question: Does God show favoritism, and if so, why? We trace the journey from the pivotal Blessing of Abraham, as outlined in Genesis 12:1-3, to its broader implications for the world. Our exploration includes understanding the profound meaning of blessing as a source of goodness and favor, and how this contrasts with the concept of cursing in the biblical narrative. We also examine the significant moments such as the Covenant Ceremony and Abraham’s test of faith, highlighting God's unwavering commitment and the challenges of faithfulness. The service will also address the unresolved promise of Israel's role as a blessing to all nations and its fulfillment in the New Testament, particularly through the life and mission of Jesus as depicted in John 12:20-33. This exploration is not just about understanding biblical events, but also about drawing practical applications for our lives today. We will reflect on the reliability of God's promises, the importance of embracing the blessing through Jesus, and our role in extending this blessing to others, even in challenging circumstances.
