ARE WE BLESSED?
ABRAM WAS- WE CAN BE. HOW? GREAT QUESTION....Genesis 14: 14. And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan. NOTICE 1-ABRAM LISTENED. DO WE? 2. ABRAM WAS A DOER
15. And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus. 3. HE WAS SMART 4. HE HAD A PLAN
16. And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people. 5. HE KNEW HOW TO WIN
17. And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
18. And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
19. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: 6. HE WAS BLESSED BY WORTHY PEOPLE- BE CAREFUL WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE!!!!
20. And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
21. And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22. And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
23. That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:7. HE TREATED PEOPLE RIGHT.
24. Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion. CAN GOD BLESS US? HOW MUCH ARE WE LIKE ABRAM? THINK ABOUT IT PASTOR JOE
