Faith Capsule: The secret of God is in the word of God.

Hebrews 11:8-19

By the word of God, obey, dwell, and wait before God.
Psalm 91:1 informs all, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
When the word of God sounds in your direction, it is worth obeying and dwelling on the word of God. 
Abraham is the testimony to obey, dwell, and wait on the word of God.
The Bible records Abraham, “By faith, Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise; for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.” (Hebrews 11:8-10)
Obedience of Abraham: 
When God called Abraham out from his country, his father, and his family to an unknown land, he obeyed fully by launching out as commanded by God. 
Obedience to the word of God shall excel for the glory of God.
Obeying to obtain from God.
The dwelling of Abraham: 
Abraham lives by the word of God, and that is dwelling in the secret place of God.
Psalm 91:1 buttresses, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” 
Know to dwell in the word of God.
Abraham did not look back to where he was coming from, but went forward to the calling of God. 
He dwelt under the shadow of the word of God to move him forward. 
With faith in the word of God, he moved to a foreign country, and his faith caused him to obtain good testimonies.
The word of God is a story that is not a secret for one who is limited in understanding.
Like Abraham, engage the word of God, the secret to obeying for the glory of God.
The word of God is a secret to dwell in and be delivered, not to become a victim of a wicked world.
Abraham dwelt in the word of God. 
Waiting for God by Abraham: 
Abraham obeyed God; he dwelt and waited on God for the deliverance and preservation of the word of God. 
Those who know how to dwell in God know how to wait patiently on God. 
Hebrews 11:10 records the waiting of Abraham for God, “For he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.” Indeed, Abraham lived by waiting for the future that was not yet in sight. 
Waiting on the word of God can be painful, but it is gainful for obedient ones.
The understanding of Abraham, his knowledge of the word of God, prompted him to obey and obtain the testimony of God.
