*Study scripture*
*Genesis 12:1-2*
_Now the LORD had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, From your family And from your father’s house, *To a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you* And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.
*AN EXPRESS TICKET TO GREATNESS*
Praise King Jesus. This is God’s promise to Abraham about making his name great, blessing Him and making him into a nation. What sweet promises! This is God’s express ticket to ” *Greatness* ” and I believe each one of us would desire of the same. And let me just say this that God is more than Ready aswell to bless you, make your name great and make you into a great nation. He’s no respecter of persons *(Acts 10:32)* Amen
What’s important for us to not here is that these promises where not automatic and I think many people miss this. Abram was to firstly leave His home country; there was firstly *”Obedience”* attached to these promises. For greatness sake you may have to sometimes leave home which could be symbolic of ” _The life systems we have grown up knowing, Our traditions, Our comfort zones, even some of our friend or family who may not agree with purpose_” and just take a leap choosing to obey God.
Secondly and very important, God instructed Him to ” *_A land He would Show Him_”*. I believe Abram didnt just know He was going to Canaan instantly; God would show Him progressively. This called for ” *A relationship with God”* To be great, you need to have a relationship with God and a serious one at that. As you relate with Him, He shows you where to go. *”How does God show us and how do we see?”* From the story of the Blind at Bethsaida ( *Mark 8:22-26* ) we learn thats its through the Word; Jesus. He opens our eyes as we Study Him. *_The more we relate with God; His Word we start to see That Land where he intends to take us and make us a great nation_*. It sees to be like trees but becomes a Reality. Praise King Jesus!
