FAITH OF ABRAHAM

FAITH CAPSULE: Before God, Abraham dwelt and waited on the command of God.

Hebrews 11

To be complete in the life journey is giving self to the command of God. Command of God is His word to deliver and preserve one in life. 
Looking in the word of God shall not be ashamed. Psalm 119:6 buttresses, “Then I would not be ashamed when I look into all Your commandments.” 
Living by the command of God is the evidence of having faith in God.
Obey the word of God by dwelling in His word to experience the manifestation of expectation.
Have faith in God.
All that faith describes is evident in the life of Abraham to learn.
Hebrews 11:8-10 documents, “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.” 
Before God, Abraham dwelt and waited on the command of God.
ABRAHAM OBEYED
When God called Abraham out from his country, he obeyed fully.
Abraham had no reasonable excuse to decline the calling upon his life. Abraham obeyed God by moving from certainty to uncertain ground, abandoning his comfort zone. 
Indeed, Abraham went out just as was mentioned in the scriptural verse above.
ABRAHAM DWELT
Abraham dwelt on the word of God. Living life according to the command of God is the secret place of God. 
He did not look back but went forward, moved by faith, led to a foreign country to dwell in tents. 
The word of God is not a story but a secret place to dwell to one with understanding.
Abraham dwelt in the word (command) of God. 
For example, Lot dwelt in the word of God when his wife looked back against the word of God to become terminated (Genesis 19)
ABRAHAM WAITED
Abraham obeyed God, he dwelt, and he waited. 
One that knows to dwell knows to wait on God to experience the manifestation of expectation.
It is not enough to obey to dwell and not have the patience the key to wait on the promise of God.
For example, King Saul could not obey, to dwell in the command to wait for Samuel for seven days but became a failure before God.
Saul engaged in unlawful sacrifice on the seventh day to violate and not obey the word of God. (1 Samuel 13) 
Engage His command fully to excel for His glory.
When the word of God sounds in your direction is to engage your deliverance in the word of God.
