Скачать или смотреть EP 16 | Please, STOP HELPING GOD! Learn a lesson from Abram & Sarai in Gen. 16

In this episode, KJ & I (his mom, Marilyn) explore the tragic consequences of Abram and Sarai's effort to 'help God' fulfill his promise in Genesis 16. Since the couple was elderly and childless, they arranged for Abram to father a child with a young slave girl named Hagar. The plan backfires in an epic way! We emphasize that God has a perfect plan that does not require our assistance.

Takeaways:
God never intended for Hagar to have a child with Abram.
In our human nature, we can make foolish decisions to try to 'help God.'
When God says He's going to do something, God certainly will do it.
Our choices can have lasting, devastating consequences.
Trusting God's plan is essential for faith.
Faith requires patience and understanding of God's timing.
We must align our decisions with God's divine will.
