Sacrifice gives birth to a dream


We all know about the 9 months period of a woman who is expecting to give birth to a child. The time period of nine months marks the time of building of sacrificing. You sacrifice by eating the right food and taking care of yourself for the baby to grow properly.

When the mother  to be eats, she is feeding her baby, making it to grow healthy and strong. Her dream is to have a child, but for her to have what she wants she has to go through the period of pregnancy and pushing hard for her to give birth to her dream. 

What is your dream? How long have you been caring it inside of you? The big question is: Are you ready to give birth to your dream?

These are the questions that we all have answers to. Taking a step of faith, not being afraid to sacrifice will lead us to have the strength to give birth to our drem!

The time of sacrifice is the time of putting pressure leading us to give birth to the dream (what we want).  Pushing hard for the dream to become a reality  can only happen through sacrifice, when we feed our dream to be stronger (not holding back) eventually we will give birth.

Are you ready to give birth?

Abraham gave birth to many nations. He is our father in faith, he did not doubt or question God. Instead Abraham obeyed the voice of God, taking his only son Isaac (Genesis 22:1,2)
v8 shows the trust that Abraham had, he trusted that God would provide the lamp. In v13 we read that God did provide the ram for sacrifice.  He trusted that out of one Isaac God himself would reise another one.

Beacause of his action of faith, his willingness to sacrifice and trusting in God, Abraham touched God and He swore by Himself to surely bless him. And the Lord blessed Abraham in every way Genesis 24:1
