On Sunday we talked about having an “altar-building” lifestyle. Using the life
of Abraham from Genesis 12, 13 and 22 we talked about how altars are
places where:

  • We bow to the will of God.
  • We can claim the promises of God. Before anything can be conquered it must be claimed!
  • We can gain a brand new start.
  • We can worship and thank God for what He has done and what He will do!
  • We can separate ourselves from the world and other things that seek to compete for our obedience and affection that is meant for God.
  • We can seek guidance to make major decisions.
  • We learn to sacrifice what we love in order to receive something even greater as the altar of sacrifice becomes the altar of provision.
  • Let’s be people of the altar and build altars all throughout the week!
