Hold Fast to the Promise
Genesis 12:10–13:1

What do you do when obedience to God is followed by hardship instead of blessing? In Genesis 12, Abram obeys the Lord, enters the promised land, and worships—only to face a severe famine that threatens everything God promised him.

This passage shows how fear of lack and fear of man can lead us to rely on human solutions rather than on God’s promises. Abram’s faith falters, but God’s faithfulness does not. Even when Abram fails, God intervenes to protect His promise and His people.

This sermon reminds us that God’s faithfulness is not dependent on our perfection. When trials come, and God’s promises seem uncertain, we are called to hold fast to our hope—because He who promised is faithful (Hebrews 10:23).

Temporary Tents; Permanent Altars (Genesis 12:4–9)
In this week’s message, we follow Abram’s remarkable journey of obedience as he leaves Haran and travels into the heart of Canaan with his entire household. In a land filled with pagan worship, God appears to Abram and reaffirms His promise—a promise meant for Abram’s descendants.
Abram responds by building altars: lasting monuments of faith and public worship in the midst of a foreign land.
This sermon explores how God’s presence is most clearly experienced through obedience, drawing connections from Abram’s life to Jesus’ teaching in John 14–15 and the New Testament call to walk in step with the Spirit. As Abram lived in temporary tents but built permanent altars, we are challenged to examine what in our lives is meant to stay temporary—and what worshipful commitments God is calling us to make enduring. Join us as we reflect on obedience, God’s presence, and the boldness of worship in a world that often resists it.
