Heb 11 - whole chapter!
I should read this chapter weekly for inspiration! I want to be in a list like this when I am dead and gone to my eternal reward. That means I have to believe-trust God in difficult circumstances. Abel offered a sacrifice to God that he needed, otherwise it wouldn't have been a sacrifice and there wouldn't be any faith involved - I want to be like that! Noah built a boat on dry land which took him years! How many people must have ridiculed him-until the floods came! I want to be like that. Abraham left everything to go... Somewhere! I want to be like that.
There is something that I read that excites me to stretch my faith and to implement.
Heb. 11:20-21 ESV
By faith Isaac invoked future blessings on Jacob and Esau. By faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, bowing in worship over the head of his staff.
We can do this! Prophecy over your children and lay the blessing that God has given you to give to them! You don't have to wait until you are dying to do it, but you do have to speak with authority and faith, believing that what you say will come to pass.
