Prayer Matters, Part 3

Genesis 18:16-33, 19:29 We consider the subject of „effective prayer„, looking at examples of this kind of prayer from the Bible and Church history in order to see what it is and how we can begin to pray truly effectively.

Shiloh is Coming

Genesis 49:8-12 We consider the final revelation in the book of Genesis that God gave of His redemptive plans in the Lord Jesus. When Jacob was dying, he blessed his sons and we see Christ clearly foretold in the blessing given to Judah. We see: * The blessi

You Meant it for Evil, but God for Good

Genesis 50:20 We consider another way the Lord disciplines/trains His people: through adversity. This is something the Lord frequently does. It’s not easy to go through difficult times, but we need to remember that when we do, they are all a part of God’s plan.

The Promise Confirmed

Genesis 28 Having seen how God gave pictures of His wrath and justice over time in the Old Testament so that people may fear Him as they should, we now consider that He also worked often to remind His people of His promises.

A Picture of Hell

Genesis 18 As Abraham pleads for the lives of the righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah, we see a picture of Hell in God’s destruction of the entire valley in which Sodom and Gomorrah were located, and a picture of redemption in the saving of Lot and his family.

Genesis 14:17-20 After the Lord separated Abraham from the world, He continued to reveal further aspects of His plan of redemption. When He was on earth, Jesus said that Abraham had seen His day and rejoiced in it.

Genesis 11:1-9 Relatively few years after the flood, the world has apparently forgotten the judgment of the flood and God’s mercy to Noah’s family. It has set itself up in opposition to God and His will and may even have begun to worship other gods. Once again, God act

Spiritual Decline

Genesis 4, 6:1-6 After the revival of the time of Enoch, the godly line begins to intermarry with the ungodly in the world and the church weakens through compromise. Times grow increasingly dark and the Lord promises judgment.

Enoch Walked with God

Genesis 5:18-24 This morning we consider how Enoch foretold the judgment on the wicked that will accompany the Second Coming of Christ and in the example given through his bodily translation into heaven demonstrated the glorious future of God’s children.
