<p>Many of the US Muslim allies in the region have been overthrown thanks to a US policy of supporting “human rights” groups, many of which are nothing of the sort such as the radical Muslim Brotherhood. We made this same mistake in Iran paving the way for Ayatollah Khomeini to come to power. Israel is now encircled by Muslim fanatics and even worse, a Muslim Hitler whose threats to exterminate the Jewish people are being ignored by the world. Once Iran goes nuclear, a trillion-dollar atomic arms race will begin in the Gulf oil states—with Russia being the contractor. This will bring about Armageddon in a decade for sure...Jesus said, “When you see these things, look up for your redemption draweth nigh!”</p>
<p>I am not discouraged despite all of this. Today I want to challenge you to enlarge your faith and expect God's supernatural provision in your life. Genesis 24:1 says that Abraham was blessed in every way. I love that! What were his blessings?</p>
<p>Abraham was very wealthy in livestock, silver, and gold. He wasn’t rich when God first called him, but he became rich because of the blessing of God upon his life (Genesis 13:2, Deut. 8:18). Abraham also had great favor. The people said to him, “You are a mighty prince among us.” God can supernaturally elevate you to places of favor and influence. Psalm 75:6 says that promotion comes from God.</p>
<p>Abraham’s son was abundantly blessed. When Abraham died, he left everything to Isaac, but the Bible says that God blessed Isaac in his own right. In one year, he reaped 100-fold on his crops, and he became very wealthy. You can pass the blessings down, but God also has additional blessings for your children. He wants them to increase even more (Genesis 25:5, 26:12–14)!</p>
<p>Abraham even received material blessings that he didn’t have to work for. Psalm 105:44 says, “Abraham fell heir to what others had toiled for.” We’ve got to get ahold of this! The Bible says the wealth of the sinner is passed on to the just (Proverbs 13:22)! God can bless you with things that you don’t even have to work for. Deuteronomy 6:11 says that He will give you houses that you did not build, wells that you did not dig, and vineyards that you did not plant.</p>
