GOD IN ABRAHAM: THE GLORIOUS RETURN!
GOD IN ABRAHAM: THE GLORIOUS RETURN!
And the LORD said, My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for that
he also is flesh: yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
Right from the very Beginning, God expressed His
dismay at the way man had dropped unto the abyss of sin and lost his fear for
the LORD!
In the Beginning God, In the Beginning God! I've had to repeat these lines
in order to shame the wise fools amongst us. A fool hath said in his heart,
there is no God.
God in Abraham: the Glorious Return. This is not God and
Abraham since this would put a mortal like Abraham in the same shoes as the
Almighty! God in Abraham is God working thru Abraham and not the other way
round.
Apostasy has always been man's greatest weakness. The minute any man or
a woman and see themselves highly as a gift from God to others: they should
consider themselves apostates.
God in Abraham: the Glorious Return. In Adam, God lost
everything but in Abraham: God regained it all and even consolidated His losses
by even a Superior and Everlasting Covenant.
Abraham and Sarah had no children of their own since she was barren.
Abraham on the other hand, had many sons with his many concubines but God had
no intended use for them. You see, God doesn't need any help from man: He takes
invisible and things that are not and turn them into His sons.
God can turn these stones, these pebbles into sons of
Abraham: Jesus harshly reminded the obnoxious religious leaders bragging about
being Abraham's sons.
Sarah tried to help God by fast-forwarding God's Covenanted Promise to
Abraham: a son who'll grow his descendants into a mighty nation. Thereafter,
Ishmael was conceived by Hagar the African: God rejected Ishmael because he was
not part of His Divine Plan.
Right on time and in God's Own Time: Sarah conceived,
and Isaac was born, and so God's Plan of Salvation took shape. Abraham divided
his wealth for all his concubines and their sons, sent them back to Africa.
Hagar and her son Ishmael didn't survive the chop either. It was the Hour of
God!
Everything is all right now: and so, Abraham thought after sending everyone
away. I can walk with the LORD in free spirit and unhindered: Hagar and her son
Ishmael, together with all my African concubines and their sons, I have chased away.
No more burden or guilt.
Father Abraham went to his grave without understanding
the gravity of all the mess, he and Sarah had created.
In due time, Ishmael returned from Africa to the Land of Promise: to
bury his father, Abraham. This was the beginning of all the mess and fruition
of Abraham and Sarah’s mess as Ishmael claimed his portion of the land.
Could there be some sparks of truth in the claims made
by some Africans, that they are the direct descendants of Abraham thru Hagar
and all the African concubines Abraham had as wives? I don’t know. They call
themselves African Hebrew Israelites. Nobody knows the total number of African
concubines Abraham had.
Immediate future generations and right down to our modern days, are
feeling the intensity of Abraham's rebellion against God. Like Adam erred and followed
Eve: Abraham took the ill-advice from Sarah his wife.
These two
men and their wives got the world where we are today: troubles all round.
Ishmael: And he will be a wild man, and every man’s hand against him, and he
shall dwell in the presence of his brethren. This is Israeli-Palestinian
Conflict. What about the Twelve Princes God promised to
give to Ishmael?
Abraham wouldn't have survived the wrath of God had the Law and the
Prophets been in place. The man survived because he was the very foundation for
Moses’ Law. Abraham didn’t live under the Law: God’s Judgement wasn’t
applicable. We serve a Just God!
The False Prophet in the Last Days, the Prince of
Deception: will be the only man who will foster the bogus Middle East Peace
Treaty between the Jews and the Palestinians and will be celebrated by the
duped World as the Greatest Breakthrough. Heretofore, the Second Coming of Christ
will be imminent after 1000 years as God wraps up this world as a dirty rag in the
subsequent Judgement Day.
Right to this day, I continue to say: The Arab-Jewish Impasse remains
unresolved: the final solution hereof acts as a Prophetic Precursor right to
the End of the World! The Jews and the Palestinians are all sons of Abraham,
and the conflict goes on till someone removes the thorn in their flesh. Watch
this space.
