Faith That Blesses

When he returns from Egypt, Abram is again faced with a choice of whether or not to live by faith. After separating from Lot due to their growing wealth and the strife it caused in Genesis 13, Lot is captured during a conflict between kings in Genesis 14. When Abram learns of Lot’s capture and the actions of these foreign kings, he demonstrates faith— trusting God’s clear promises—as he gathers his trained men to pursue and defeat the kings, and rescue Lot. Genesis 14 culminates in a meeting with Melchizedek, a mysterious figure who blesses Abram, showing God's ongoing faithfulness and foreshadowing Jesus. Trusting God brings blessing in surprising ways and places.

Abraham's life is marked by moments of both faith and doubt, courage and fear. Through it all, God was was faithful, enabling Abraham to keep turning back to him in faith and courage.
