The Biblical Remix – Give It To Me

Genesis 18:1-15 – http://bit.ly/biblicalremixgiveittome

When Abraham was 99 years God told him he was gonna have a son through his 90 year old wife Sarah.  Abraham laughed inside with joy.

Some time later three dudes (who were really heavenly beings in human bodies) show up at Abraham’s crib and tell him the same thing, that his wife Sarah was gonna get pregnant by him and have a lil boy.

Off to the side, Sarah heard the words and laughed to herself not believing it was possible cuz she was old.  God then shouted Sarah out and told the promise again about the boy to be born (Isaac).

That night when Abraham got in bed with Sarah, this Rick James song was playing on his iPod:

“Give it to me baby, Give it to me baby, I betcha, I’ll make you holler you’ve had enough, Give it to me, Give me that stuff, That funk, That sweet, That funky stuff, Say what…”

Reflection:

Sometimes God will tell you something in private that He will later declare in public, such as the blessing of the child Isaac.  He does this to confirm the plans He has so that we may be encouraged He is not a liar.

Are you willing to believe that which God has already spoken to you?  It is very easy to let human logic get in the way of divine promise.  God is not a man that He should lie.  Have faith and take Him at His Word.
