Faith Will Connect you to your Destiny
Genesis 15: 1-7
After these things the word of the Lord came to Abraham in a vision, saying “Do not be afraid Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward” But Abram said, “Lord God what will you give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus? Then Abram said “look you have given me no offspring: indeed, one born in my house is my heir.”
At this point God made a covenant with Abram
Jeremiah says in Chapter 1:12
I will watch over my word to perform it.
What dreams or visions have you had that are waiting to be fulfilled? The reason it’s called God’s word is because it’s His bond.
Abraham believed God and Isaac was supernaturally born.
By faith he took Isaac up the mountain.
By faith Abraham put Isaac on the altar.
By faith Abraham declared to his servants WE WILL BE BACK.
You will find the scriptures relating to this in Genesis chapter 22 – David told the king that the uncircumcised philistine did not have a chance against me (1 Sam17:36-46).

Esther was used by God to save the Jewish people.
For such a time.
There was a blood covenant between God and these men and woman of faith in the bible. Animals were used in the Old Testament and in the New Testament there is also a blood covenant with each of us and it happened through Jesus on the Cross but it’s the same covenant of Gods word and His promises.
These men and woman God has chosen in the bible to teach help and encourage us are no different to you and I with the exception of we have the help of the Holy Spirit within us.
Words and faith count and we are enabled to make them count by choosing how we speak and act in Faith when circumstances in this world are trying to tell us different.
We are only passing through.
Our covenant with God contains all that we need to live a successful life here on earth while we are passing through.
God speaks to each of us He walked and talked with Adam and Eve in the garden.
We have the holy Spirit.
We need our faith to keep walking and keep being obedient.
Gen 1:26-28
God has given us dominion in this earth.
26 tells what to do
28 tells us how
Ephesians 5:1
Therefore, be imitators of God.
