1 | Abraham and Abimelech | James 4:2 | Val | 213117 | ||
Dear Cheri, A topical study on prayer would be helpful. I will make two points concerning your question. The first point is that God works through the prayers of His people. This is the way He has chosen to work. This is why prayer is so important. The second point is that Abimelech is not someone who worships God. He worships some other god. He became involved in this situation because of the deception of Abraham. God has mercy on him. Sometimes unbelievers can be an example to believers. They know that believers are different and when they act contrary to that they call them on it. I don't think Abraham was exalted in any way. It was probably a rebuke to him because he was afraid of telling Abimelech the truth from the start rather than trusting God for the circumstances. Holding to Him - Val | ||||||

Thanks Val, I've read that story time and again, and always wondered that. I had pretty much agreed with what you wrote but wondered if maybe there was something I was missing... Cheri |
