It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. And even when he reached the land God promised him, he lived there by faith-for he was like a foreigner, living in tents. And so did Isaac and Jacob, who inherited the same promise.
Hebrews 11:8-9
Journey to Another Land
Abraham is another great man of faith. These verses retell the stories we read of his faith in the book of Genesis. By faith he obeyed God and left what he knew in his homeland to journey to the unknown, knowing that God was faithful and would deliver on his promises. By faith he followed God not knowing where he was going and what God was doing. He trusted God. He even lived by faith in the new land, living as a foreigner. All the while trusting God, hoping in what was to come, and believing that God would deliver. It was because of his faith that Isaac and Jacob did the same.
Is God calling you outside of your comfort zone to a new land or a new adventure? Are you willing to say, “Yes, Lord,” and follow Him into the unknown? Spend some time in prayer for your future today!
