The Laughter of Abraham
Manage episode 356150583 series 3413501
We continue our series of studying how God interacts with His people through enduring trials and testing. In this episode we continue our discussion on Abraham and the promise he received from God to receive a son. When God revealed that the son would come through his wife Sarah, Abraham laughed, for both he and his wife were well beyond their natural reproductive years (Genesis 17:17) The laughter of Abraham was a response of absolute belief in God's word. "Abraham believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness." (Genesis 15:6) Twenty-five years after God spoke his promise, Abraham and Sarah gave birth to Isaac, which means laughter.
Listen in as we discuss the journey between the promise and the delivery, plus how works play a vital role with faith.
