Devotional
SECOND WEEK OF ADVENT – TUESDAY December 12, 2023
READ Genesis 22:1–18
God promises that through faithful Abraham “all nations on earth will be blessed.” This is astonishing news! God is going to save his people through Abraham’s family.
REFLECT
God makes promises to his people throughout the Old Testament. A rainbow appears as a promise that God will never again send a flood to destroy the world. God promises to make Abraham a great nation. God promises deliverance to the people of Israel during Passover. God makes and keeps his promises again and again. And among these promises, there is an even greater promise — God promises a Messiah, a deliverer, an anointed King.
PRAY
Pray that you would learn to trust God and to love him more than anything else.
