Gen 18:19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
GOD
wants people that He can depend upon. He could say of Abraham, "I know
him, that he will command his children . . . that the LORD may bring
upon Abraham that which he hath spoken."
GOD can be depended upon; He
wants us to be just as decided, as reliable, as stable. This is just
what faith means.
GOD is looking for men on whom He
can put the weight of all His love and power and faithful promises.
GOD'S engines are strong enough to draw any weight we attach to them.
Unfortunately the cable which we fasten to the engine is often too weak
to hold the weight of our prayer; therefore GOD is drilling us,
disciplining us to stability and certainty in the life of faith.
Let us
learn our lessons and stand fast.
~A. B. Simpson~
GOD
knows that you can stand that trial; He would not give it to you if you
could not.
It is His trust in you that explains the trials of life,
however bitter they may be.
GOD knows our strength, and He measures it
to the last inch; and a trial was never given to any man that was
greater than that man's strength, through GOD, to bear it.
