Scripture Union Daily Guide 15 May 2022 Scripture: Genesis 18:1‐15
Question(s) for Reflection
• Is there any example for me to follow or not to follow?
• What truth is God revealing to me in this passage?
Scripture Union Daily Guide 15 May 2022 MESSAGE
Abraham entertained God and two angels unknowingly (vs.1–2). Reflect on his attitude towards the men, his motivation, and the involvement of his household in entertaining them (vs.3–8). What do you learn from this? Africans are normally very welcoming people. However, some have had bad experiences of welcoming men of evil characters into their home.
Whatever may speak to us to the contrary, God’s charge in Hebrews 13:1‐2 must be kept while praying for discernment. God is very mindful of His promises (v.10a; cf. 17:19. See also Numbers 23:19). Was Sarah’s laughter at God’s promise (v.12) an expression of joy or doubt? Although it was an inward thought, God, who knows our innermost thoughts, heard and took notice of it.
God can do anything no matter how much it seems impossible to us (v.14). Are you in a situation you think God cannot handle? Read Jeremiah 32:27; Mark 10:27 and think again. We should always acknowledge and confess our sins because they are not hidden from God (v.15; cf. Psalm 139:1–4).
