Abram believed the Lord, and He credited it to him as righteousness.

Luke 6:38

• Believe means to persevere in trust and belief by manifesting an obedient faithfulness.
• This was the kind of faith Abram possessed.
• His heart was turned toward God in an enduring trust, obedience, and submission.
• It was his belief in the Lord, not his actions, that made Abram right with God.
• We too can have a right relationship with God by trusting Him.
• Righteousness means being in a right relationship to God and His will.
• A right relationship is based on faith.
• Our outward actions – church attendance, prayer, good deeds – will not by themselves make us right with God.

PRAYER: Lord, may I trust in and rely upon You. May I manifest an obedient faithfulness. May I have a right heart attitude, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Have a Fulfilling and Faithful Friday. Good morning. Shalom!

God bless you always and in all ways.
