Growing Strong in Faith

I hope spending time in God’s Word is helping you grow stronger in your faith! Abraham grew in faith and gave glory to God. He was CONVINCED God could do what he said. Do we have faith like this? Do we honestly trust God and believe He will do what he says or are we still growing and lacking in that kind of trust and faith? Stick with us as we journey through these foundational 260 passages and maybe all our faith will grow stronger, we will
be fully convinced, and no unbelief will make us waiver.

This week (January 14-18, 2019) we are reading Genesis 18-19, Genesis 20-21, Genesis 22, Genesis 24, and Genesis 25:19-34,26 at Sutton Church.  I’ve still been keeping my H.E.A.R. Journal every day to help me dig into my daily reading. If you missed what that is about you can go back and read about it here: F260 & H.E.A.R.

Memory Verses for this week are: Romans 4:20-22 and Hebrews 11:17-19 - I like to write my memory verses on index cards and carry them with me but I also write  them in a big notebook and keep them sitting out at home so our whole family can look at them. Hopefully we all pause for a minute and read the verses as we walk by the notebook each day. I save the photos I’ve posted below to my phone so I can flip through them during the day. Maybe some of these ideas will help you with your memorization!

20 No unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, 21 fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised. 22 That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.” 

Romans 4:20-22 ESV

17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was in the act of offering up his only son, 18 of whom it was said, “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.” 19 He considered that God was able even to raise him from the dead, from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back. 

Hebrews 11:17-19
