It is interesting and rather amazing that ... Abram believed God and obeyed Him and God spoke to Abram along the way; yet when he went to Egypt he thought to protect himself by asking Sarai to say she was his sister and not his wife. God was with him ...

This is an on going mistake we make over and over again and again. We have the idea we must control our circumstances and provide protection for our self.

When we walk with God as Abram did and David did, and Moses did, and Joseph did, and Daniel did, etc. We are trusting God to make the way. Keep us safe, and provide our needs.

Thank You, O LORD for the truth of Your Word, for the purity, faithfulness, and absolute sovereign promise of Your Presence and protection as we rest in Your hands. Forgive us our weakness, and our failing to turn our life into Your hands, We love You LORD for Your righteousness, You are all good, almighty, Most high God, of love, mercy, kindness, redemption, salvation, peace, hope, eternal life and for Jesus Christ Your Son and the Holy Spirit. All praise and glory, and honor, and worship are Yours. Keep us on the path, in the light You have for us, and help us be in You will, always. Bless Israel, Jerusalem,the Jewish people, and the scattered that do not know they are Jews, and Your remnant, persecuted believers in the world, the lost, Muslims,the church, America, and all who seek to find You and Know You, in Jesus name I pray. amen.

You certainly have THAT right, Geologist! As we go along in Genesis, we shall se that every time Abraham and Sarah try to "Help God Out" with their own little schemes and plans, it backfires BIG TIME! OUCH!

Thank you for your powerful prayer.
