TOPIC: Costly Mistakes Believers Make (8)

BIBLE READING: Hosea 1-4

TEXT: “And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver, which he had named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver …And the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, the field, and the cave which was yherein, and all the trees that were in the field, were made sure. ” Gen. 23 :16 – 17.

Rhema For Living 20 October 2022 OFM  MESSAGE

From our covenant father Abraham, we can learn a lot of kingdom principles for a lasting stress free tomorrow. In the scenario of our anchor text, Abraham needed a burying place to bury his dead (Sarah) and he approached the sons of Heth to give him a possession of a burying place. And the children of Heth told him to bury his dead freely in the choice of their sepulchre.

But Abraham applied the wisdom of God which is very necessary especially in a strange land and told them to appeal to Ephron the son of Zohar to give him the cave of Machpelah which he has for as much money that it worth. And Ephron said he gave it to him freely, but Abraham refused insisting that he should name the amount for it because he needed to make it a sure possession.

And when Ephron mentioned the amount, Abraham paid him fully in the audience of our he people of the land and made his possession sure.

Listen, there may be nothing wrong at that moment with Abraham accepting the land freely from them, but the future may be uncertain especially in a strange/land since God’s wisdom for him is to pay for it, and he had blessed him with the means to do so.
And as he paid, he paid before witnesses and made his possession sure. It was that possession that he was also buried (Gen. 25:9) and his offsprings after him. Gen. 50 :13 & 24 – 26

If Abraham at that time could make his possession sure with the wisdom of God, what stops you in this modern era from doing same to your possessions whether paid for or given to you by favour.

PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray, help me to apply your wisdom in my life.
