FAITH CAPSULE: See God in His word that is His promise.

Genesis 13

The word of God is God.
One in a position to hear the word of God should activate oneself to see in the word of God.
The word of God is His promise.
Among the evidence of looking up to God by seeing in his word, shall be to be settled in the promises in the word of God.
When God makes a promise, those who fail to see in the word of God shall miss out on His promise.
Has God promised and not delivered?
The word of God does not fail to deliver.
Isaiah 55:11 records the unfailing promise of God, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
Waiting on God is seeking with patience, the character of seeking God diligently.
Seeking God diligently in His word is looking up and seeing in Him to live life for His glory, to be in the center of His divine assignment.
God commanded Abraham to look in the direction of nothing but to trust and hope for the manifestation from God. Bible recorded:  And the Lord said to Abram after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; for all the land which you see I give to you and your [c]descendants forever. And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered. Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you.” (Genesis 13:14-17)
Abraham heard the word of God to see the promise of God.
Abram was able to look in the word of God to see land for children while he was yet to have a child in his life.
After the word of God that sounded in the direction of Abram, he rose and walked in the promise of God as evidence of the faithfulness of God.
The word of God commanded Abram to hold on to faith, to have children when he was past the age for children.
God spoke to Abram: “And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, This one shall  not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir.” Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.” (Genesis 15:4-5)
The belief of Abram is the evidence of his righteousness.
