Uncertain Days
We are living in very uncertain days. Studying Genesis 14 recently, I was struck by Lot's captivity and Abraham's rescue mission.
Genesis 14:12-16
Lot is taken hostage. The overall view regarding Lot is that he was a godly man. However, we know the godly are not spared troubles.
Hostage taking today presents so many horrors, and for Lot and his family they must have battled many fears. A similar thing happened to David and his men. They threatened to stone David. We know Satan is a hostage taker and it is only the blood of Jesus which can release us from his grip.
Lot’s rescue. Abram the fighter.
Lot is the son of Abraham's brother and he is taken with all his goods. Abraham raises an army of 318 people. He arms them to be able to fight and then pursues those who have taken Lot captive. He divides his forces carefully and attacks at night. He rescues Lot and others.
We too must be prepared for spiritual warfare as we seek to rescue people from Satan's kingdom and bring them to God. This took courage and determination and leaders today must not shirk the battle to engage in prayer and evangelism as we seek to bring people into the kingdom of God.
