The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!

30 Aug The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!

Out of reverence and fear, people, in the past, desisted from calling God by His name.

💥It was preferable to call Him by His attributes, which are represented in the names of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

💥Elijah used that beautifully on Mt Carmel, where he prayed, “Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel (Jacob), let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command.”

🎯The God of Abraham is the God of choice, who picks from among people, the right vessel to use

💥A God of blessing, surprises and greatness

💥A God, who always defends His own

💥A God, who not only blesses but also makes the recipient a blessor to others.

💥He is a God who reverses the irreversible, making Abraham and Sarah, who had passed child-bearing age, have Isaac.

💥A God who is a great provider and a God of generational blessing

🎯Through Isaac, He showed that He is a God of laughter, who turns worries into laughter.

💥A God who demands total surrender and extreme sacrifice as in the example of the attempted sacrifice of Isaac

💥He is a God of harvest, multiplication, and continuous increase.

🎯Through the life of Jacob, He showed He is a covenant-making God

💥He is a God of transformation; the unchangeable changer

🎯A good relationship with God, which makes us a seed of Abraham, entitles us to the benefits of all these attributes.

🎯It all starts by surrendering to God, who is a prayer away.
