Genesis 12:1-2 “Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:”
One wonders why God chose Abraham. The answer is, of course, God chooses whom He will, for His own reasons.
Anyone chosen by God is privileged, but Abraham was blessed like no other in all of scripture.
He was chosen to be the father of God’s great nation and given deed to a great land.
His choosing was the beginning of God’s mightiest works in the world.
The Messiah himself would come from Abraham’s lineage many years later and all happened in the plan of God from this very day.
If God directs us to a specific path, we should walk it with careful precision.
He sees all that is ahead and has a plan to prosper His people in wonderful ways.
