Three Principles of God's Promises - Genesis 21:1-7 (1.9.19) Dr. Jordan N. Rogers

Описание: God is always faithful to fulfill His promises. For our part, we have to remember that God’s promises require faith, and that the fulfillment of God’s promises always result in joy for those who are His children.

In Genesis 21:1-7, Abraham and Sarah see the fulfillment of God’s promises in the birth of their son Isaac. This fulfillment came 25 years after God had made the promise, but it happened exactly when God had determined. The result: pure joy for Abraham and Sarah!
