Genesis 16:1-16
TOPIC:
THE FOLLY HUMAN WISDOM
Today’s passage tells
the story of how Sarah, who was barren, gave her maidservant, Hagar, to her husband
Abraham as his wife, so that she might have children through her.
This was acceptable in
the custom of those days but not acceptable to God.
Afterward, Hagar began
to despise Sarah. Hagar gave birth to Ishmael, who, together with his
descendants, is a constant thorn in the flesh for Isaac and his descendants, as
we see in the world today.
Human wisdom is grossly
limited and as believers, we must learn to trust and rely on God and His
wisdom.
QUESTION:
Do you trust and rely on human wisdom or on God and His wisdom?
PRAYER:
Oh God, give the grace to trust and rely on You and Your wisdom rather than on
human wisdom, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Remain
Blessed
