SUMMARY:
It is time for a GENESIS 15 encounter with God. It’s time to reenact in this season the faith that Abraham UNLOCKED almost 4000 years ago. Abraham “believed the Lord; and the Lord reckoned it to him as righteousness” (Genesis 15:6). The Lord Jesus is calling his people to “walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham” (Romans 4:12). We are being called to BELIEVE again.
We’ve talked a lot recently about how select moments of time within human history intersect with “meta-time,” the eternal timeline of God’s purpose that transcends temporal time and space. In Genesis 15, Abraham broke through the veil of time and space and “eternalized” his faith-which we now walk out as the children of Abraham.
We are living in “the overlap of ages,” just as Abraham did, and the only way forward is to rise up in the Spirit and join the meta-narrative of meta-time. The hope of the world is the reactivated, audacious faith of Abraham!
Here’s the heart of today’s message: God is drawing us out of the “tent” limited eschatology into the unlimited expectations that our GENERATIONS will be elevated by GRACE into GLOBAL influence as the GLORY of God “covers the earth as the waters cover the sea.”
Let’s distill that phrase down to this: GENERATIONS given GRACE for GLOBAL GLORY.
I want to show you that God means to advance his kingdom in the world through GENERATIONAL MOMENTUM-that he will elevate our children and our children’s children into positions of influence and authority in the nations that will mediate the glory of God into every sphere of life until “the knowledge of the glory of the Lord covers the earth as the waters cover the sea” (Habakkuk 2:14). This is the blessing of Abraham!
