01.08.2016 Old Testament: Gen 21.2

To read the Bible in a year, read Genesis 20–22 on January 8, In the year of our Lord 2016

By Don Ruhl

God told Abraham, when he was about 100 years old, that he would have a son, and Sarah, who was about 90 at the time, heard God’s promise and she laughed. Yet, a year later, the Bible says,

For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him (Genesis 21.2). 

Do not think to yourself that God will not do as He has promised and prophesied, for the day will come when you will find out that He does precisely as He says that He will do. Therefore, live in the promises of God and enjoy life.
