Understanding OUR Background

To leave the familiar & move to a new, unfamiliar place shown by God can create feelings of:

• Uncertainty
• Anxiety
• Excitement

God's Promises and Expectations were to Abram and thus to God’s People

• God’s people always began with an obedient Person!

Three Things God Promised God Will Do for His people

• "I will make you into a great nation."
• "I will bless you."
• "I will make your name great."

One Thing God Expects from His people:

• "You will be a blessing."

Result: "All peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

Anticipation is not waiting

but preparing ourselves and living in a way

that reflects our expectation of God's promises
