Become A Blessing
Pastor Ian explores the pivotal moment in Genesis 12:1-3, where God calls Abram (later Abraham) to leave his homeland and promises to make him a great nation. This call marks a significant shift from Abram’s past, symbolizing a break from his family’s pagan traditions and the beginning of a new lineage blessed by God. He discusses the importance of surrendering to God’s will, drawing parallels to Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 10:37-39 about prioritizing one’s relationship with God over familial ties.
Pastor Ian further discusses the concept of being a blessing to others, as highlighted in Genesis 12:2-3, challenging us to reflect on our own lives and consider how we can be a blessing to those around us, not just within our comfort zones but also in broader, more challenging contexts.
