#soap # Romans 4 ## Title: Trusting God is What It’s All About ## Scripture: (Romans 4:22) “So indeed it was credited to Abraham as righteousness.” (NET) ## Observation: God didn’t ask Abraham to do anything to make the promises happen other than take the next steps in front of him. The true key to his relationship with God was that he trusted God to do what He said. This is the same for us. God doesn’t give us a plan and then expect us to do the impossible. He expects us to believe He will do it and then take the next steps as doors open. It would be like telling someone you have a surprise event for them to attend. You tell them you will pick them up at 4pm to take them to the event. All they have to do is be outside and ready to go when the time comes. Abraham was outside and ready to go. Same with us. ## Application: Believe God’s faithfulness. Be ready for any open door. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, that Your plan always takes paths we wouldn’t expect and always leads to places we could never have imagined.
