[quote:Me114:MV80OTI1ODQ1XzkwMDQ4NTAwXzlEMTY4OTFE] Installment for today, Saturday GOD’S ETERNAL CONTRACT WITH ABRAHAM Next, God makes an everlasting covenant with Abraham. A covenant is an agreement between two people where each person promises to do something that is good for the other person. A covenant establishes a bond between two people. An example of a covenant would be a marriage contract. 14 God promises Abraham that even in his and Sarah’s old age he would have a seed, which turned out to be his son Isaac. God also promised that Abraham would be famous and a blessing to all nations. He promised land for Abraham’ descendants. For his part Abraham had to continue to believe God and obey His commands and teach his children and grandchildren to do the same. So, we have promises of God through faith and we must listen to God’s guidance and obey Him. Gen 12:1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: Gen 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gen 12:4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; 15 The promises were repeated to Abraham’s son Isaac and Isaac’s son Jacob whose name was changed to Israel. Israel’s twelve sons fathered the twelve tribes of the nation, Israel. BEING MADE RIGHTEOUS BY GOD Due to his faith and obedience, Abraham was considered “righteous” by Father God. Righteousness can be defined as “the condition of being acceptable to God as made possible by God.” God’s standard is what defines true righteousness; His power is what enables it. Unless God is its author, we will never possess righteousness. No amount of man-made effort will result in righteousness. To be righteous is to be right with God. A heart that is right with God results in a life that bears “fruit”. Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 16 Gal 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. God produced a righteous standing with Abraham so that God would forgive Abraham’s mistakes and correct him so that he would live a good and blessed life. The same is true for us today! We can also bear the fruit of the Spirit if we have faith in God and obey what He tells us. Sometimes we substitute true righteousness with self-righteousness. Self- righteousness is the opposite of what God desires. Self-righteousness makes a list of rules and obeys that list. No one is justified, or made righteous, by keeping rules but instead by the faith that enables us to obey God. Only God can make us righteous. Hab 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. 17 Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. Gal 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. Heb 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: Being prideful about keeping self-made rules does not result in right living. Being full of faith in God and listening to Him to learn from Him and obey Him is what brings right living and blessings from God.
