God had planted in him seeds of greatness and Abram is going to run with them. The record is clear that Abram's faith in the seeds of greatness that God planted in him brought great results. No, everything did not go smoothly for him. Abraham rose to the opportunities of life, and when he died at 175 years of age he left to his family not only great possessions but also a great faith to follow. Self-esteem requires faith.
Lordship requires faith.
Desire requires faith. Decision requires faith. I believe God sows the same seeds of greatness in everyone who becomes a member of His forever family. For us God has taken the future tense and turned it into the past tense. Used by permission.
