Kinda an exhausting day for me. But very beautiful none the less. Check out the lake this morning!

Prayer -- Day 9

Overcome

“If Elohiym is for us, who can be against us”? (Romans 8:31)

Imagine all your difficulties as an army, lined up against you. Do they seem intimidating? Then realize you have a force at your disposal that can overcome them all. As you face these enemies of yours; discouragement, frustration, disappointment, financial troubles, family problems, hostility, weakness; ask yourself, “what shall I say to these things?” And the answer is, “If YHVH is for us, who can be against us?” YHVH is with you every moment and in every situation!

Abraham considered Ishmael his legitimate son and God agreed. He wasn't illegitimate; he just wasn't the son of Promise. He had to be separated from Isaac and Isaac's inheritance, just as we need to make a separation between clean and unclean in order to preserve the clean.
Genesis 21

And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
Genesis 21:4

Abraham was saved by faith.

Isaac was the son of Promise, not of Law...yet Abraham circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, just as God commanded. Circumcision didn't save Abraham or Isaac. Faith did. Yet Abraham's faith necessarily produced obedience.
