DeepSummary
Mother Natalia shares three lessons she learned from the life of Abraham in the Bible. The first lesson is about trusting in God as a shield against fear and attacks, based on Genesis 15:1. Even when facing difficult interactions where we anticipate getting hurt, we can hide behind Jesus and let Him protect us.
The second lesson comes from Genesis 15:5-6, where God asks Abraham to count the stars even though it was daytime and the stars weren't visible. Yet Abraham believed God's promise that his descendants would be as numerous as the stars. This teaches us to trust God's promises even when they seem impossible from our limited perspective.
The third lesson is about Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac in Genesis 22, based on his faith that God could raise Isaac from the dead (Hebrews 11:19). Abraham's previous experiences of God's provision gave him the faith to trust God even in the most difficult circumstances.
