This sermon jam titled "Land of Promise" comes from a sermon preached by Vincent A. Artese "He Dwelt In the Land of Promise".

Abraham is called to leave his country, his family, and his father’s house to go to a place that God will show him. But God had not shown him yet; this was so he would walk by faith and not by sight. Each part of the command corresponded to a promise that was dependent upon Abraham’s obedience. Abraham would lose much in exile but he will gain in the end. The blessings upon Abraham would not merely be for himself, but he would be a medium of blessing to others. God promises His providential protection and care of Abraham. God used the obedience of Abraham to bless all the families of the earth, because from his line would come the Messiah. When we step out in obedience to the commands and call of God we cannot calculate or estimate the extent of the blessing that God will bring to others through us. Abraham did not depart alone. The call was personal to Abraham but although he obeyed the call as an individual he did so within community. When God purposes to do a redemptive work He does not only call individuals, but He calls a community, a Church, His Body. Lot went with Abraham and so did Sarah his wife. God called both Abraham and Sarah to play complimentary roles in His purpose of redemption.

Dr. Dobson describes the many factors that go into making each of us unique human beings, concluding that parents needn’t take all the blame when kids go wrong—or all the credit when their children excel.

2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

A short video about an observation I made this past weekend while on an outing with some of my family.

This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Wonderful testimony of God's love for us. "It's taken me more faith to not believe in Jesus than to believe in Him. He's my first experience with love. "

Dr. Dobson tells a story of an imperiled transoceanic balloon crossing to make the point that as family leaders, we need to make hard choices to “lighten our load” of responsibilities that are weighing us down and keeping us from spending more time with our spouse and children.

There is something even more important to notice about these waters above the firmament. Look again at the passage concerning the second day:

"And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: AND SO IT WAS. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day." (Genesis 1:6-8 KJV)

Something is missing there. Do you remember what was said previously? This work on the second day is the ONLY day in the Genesis narrative where the Lord does NOT say it "was good." Therefore, when you consider the statement the Lord makes in Genesis 1:31 where He says that all that was made was "very good"...

"And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day." (Genesis 1:31 KJV)

...it must be considered so in the context of circumstances. The context is the overall work of the preparation of the Earth for Man. The term "very good" does not mean "perfect," and the sea of separation placed between the world above and the world below was not good, but necessary. It would not be until the work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross that a way would be made for crossing that barrier (the sea, or waters, above the firmament).
