The Call of Abraham

Listen to the Podcast

Here is today's communion meditation.

Our message for June is, "Walking in God's Best Today.'

So far this month we've talked about how David charged Solomon to walk in God's ways and how Solomon showed his love for God by walking in his ways.

In Genesis 12:1 is the call of Abraham. It says, "The LORD had said to Abram, “Go (halak) from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

In Hebrew the word "Go," is the word "Halak," which is the same word David uses to charge Solomon to walk in God's ways and when Solomon showed his love for God by walking with his ways. 

The word "halak," means to go, walk, flow, continue, or follow. 

God's call to Abraham was go walk with him continually, or as Jesus said to his disciples... Follow me!

Romans 4:12 says "Abraham is then also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

God's gives us the same call today. We can walk with him and follow in the footsteps of Abraham.

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that God would ask us to walk with him. And we are asking him to help us honor the call the way he desires. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

One of the keys to our faith is that we must be able to slow down and apply the brakes while also being able accelerate when God says. This is something we can practice in our workouts, because our bodies also need the ability to both slow down and accelerated. A way to practice this is by controlling the lowering portion of an exercise and then accelerating on the way up. For example, on a push-up or squat, slow down and control as you lower to the bottom and then accelerate back to the top. 

I am praying for you.
