Salvaged By God

Abram was an old man with no heir and a promise that seemed impossible. But when God spoke, fear turned to peace, doubt turned to trust, and simple faith was counted as righteousness. What happens when God's word finally reaches your life?

Abram had every reason to grab the wealth, keep the land, and play it safe. Instead, he walked away from a king's fortune to protect his integrity. What does it cost you to keep your word when no one's watching? A look at promise, faith, and integrity from Genesis 13-14.

"Egypt has a way of pulling us downward, but no failure has to be permanent." Abram's return to Canaan reveals the real cost and reward of coming back to God: separation, surrender, and an altar waiting right where you left it. Trouble's still at the door, but so is blessing.

Salvation is free. Discipleship costs everything. Jesus makes both crystal clear in Luke 14, and most people only want to hear half of it.

Commitment, in our day and age, is almost like a dirty word. But Abraham walked away from everything - family, comfort, certainty - and what he found on the other side was the most awesome, joyful experience of the human condition.

Abraham was a nobody, a pagan from one of the most idol-soaked cities on earth. And God chose him anyway. What God did with that one life by faith is still being worked out today. And he wants to do the same with yours.

The law promises life to those who can keep it. But no one can. So where does that leave us? Exactly where God intended — at the foot of the cross, trusting not in what we do, but in who we know.

Of all Satan's weapons, none is sharper than discouragement. If he can get the saints of God to despair over their efforts, his battle is already won. Here's how to overcome the mountain.

There's a famine spreading across this land, not of bread or water, but of hearing the Word of God. And the terrifying part? Most people don't even see it coming.

What happens when you pray with everything you have, and the answer never comes? The faith that holds you isn't the kind that always gets what it asks for. It's the kind that endures anyway.

The best morning ever didn't start out that way. The women were devastated. The disciples were terrified. But nothing in history can compare to what happened next — and it changes everything.
