Abraham Who Broke His Frame

Genesis 12:1~3 Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

  Abraham broke a great frame when he departed from his country and his father’s house. Although Abraham held onto God’s covenant, he still suffered because he couldn’t break his frame of unbelief. Despite Abraham’s unbelief, God gave him success. What must you hold onto in order to receive the answers that Abraham received?

1. Rightful Results
  The problems you are facing right now are a rightful outcome, and you will confront even more problems in the future. You must grab hold of those as rightful results because they had no choice but to emerge. The moment you come to acknowledge them, you will be able to correct your spiritual state before seeing answers to your problems. Finally, you will receive spiritual strength and your eyes will be opened.

2. Inevitable Process
  The problems you are facing right now are an inevitable process. The distress that Abraham felt while moving out of Chaldea was an inevitable blessing. Even the Exodus and the wilderness that the Israelites passed through were not hardships, but paths to blessings. You must realize that a crisis is not really a crisis, but a blessing in disguise from God. He chose you as a special individual and will allow special hardships for the purpose of leading you into a special process in order to gain victory.

3. Absolute Answers
  You must find a way to break your vessel in order to see the absolute answers. The individual who received these answers was Abraham(Genesis 12:1~3). The world does not spread the Gospel and that’s exactly why you must abandon all motives and share it. Even if one person possesses this absolute answer, he will save the 237 nations. God blessed the 7 Remnants in the Bible because they knew this mystery.

[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, please help me discover rightfulness, inevitability, and absoluteness by breaking the frame of destruction caused by problems and relationships with others.

In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
