ABRAHAM'S FAITH

ABRAHAM'S FAITH

Romans 4:17-21

Dear Father, promise keeper,

Thank you that Abraham's faith was held up for us to see. He
became the father of us all because you said to him, "I will make
you the father of many nations."

You are the God in whom he believed, hope against hope, that he
would become the father of many nations, as he had been told, "Your
descendants shall be as numerous as the stars, and like grains of
sand on the beach."

You are the God who gives life to the dead and calls into
existence the things that do not exist, so Abraham did not weaken
in faith when he considered the age and deadness of his own body
and the barrenness of Sarah's womb.

O that I could be like him! No distrust made him waver concerning
your promise. He grew strong in faith and gave you glory, fully
convinced that you were able to do what you had promised. I want to
be like him!

In the name of Jesus I offer myself and my faith to you. Amen.
