Three Elements of Faith – Obedience, Attitude and Expectation

September 27, 2009 No Comments

In the book of Genesis chapter 22 we see in Abraham three vital aspects of the kind of faith that pleases God – obedience to God’s voice, right attitude, and expectation of God’s goodness in spite of what the natural mind would say.

To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and we are poorly clothed, and beaten, and homeless.
