Have been looking at Abrahams story again, where God took him out of his tent and showed him the stars he could not count. 'That is how many your descendants will be' God said, and 'ABRAHAM BELIEVED'. In the book of Romans Paul writes also about this 'breaking faith'. I quote: "For Abraham, human reason being gone, hoped in faith that he should become the father f many nations, as he had been promised, so numberless shall your descendants be." (Rom 4:18 ANT) Now the next 2 verses show what 'hoping in faith' really looks like. Here it is:"He did not weaken in faith when he considered the UTTER impotence of his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about 100 years old, or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's deadened womb. No unbelief or distrust made him waver or doubtingly question concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was EMPOWERED BY FAITH' as he gave PRAISE AND GLORY TO GOD'. That's it! Giving praise ie, intentionally looking and proclaiming who He is in the midst of impossibility, impotence and even inevitability, will actually empower you to produce what you saw in the first place! I believe this is what this year ahead will be all about. Step outside your tent, dare to look at what God sees and when it seems impossible utterly confuse your adversary by giving God praise and glory for what He will do!
