Lastest message Don’t run to Egypt | Steve Morrison | Genesis 12:10-20

The first half of Genesis 12 is a wonderful portrait of the grand promises of God, combined with radical faith as Abram leaves all in search of the heavenly vision. The second half of chapter 12 paints a much darker portrait. Abram leads his family away from Canaan to Egypt, which leads to compromise and handing is wife over to Pharaoh and his harem. Abram ends up out of control, in a foreign city, with no hope of rescue. Thankfully God is the hero of this story and intervenes miraculously to save Abram and Sarai and put them back on course. This chapter foreshadows both the Exodus to come with Moses and the great exodus where our bridegroom rescues us from all our foes. Be encouraged, don’t run to Egypt, run to Him who fights for us!
