14 October 2018 - ENCS

About waiting in Genesis, Pastor Josh did today continue 
Warning us of unforeseen consequences from what we do
In chapter sixteen, her servant Hagar to Abram Sarai gave
Once she was pregnant, with contempt Hagar did behave

Sarai blamed Abram even though she was actually at fault
Playing the victim mentality comes from the enemy’s assault
And for judgement from God, Sarai unfortunately did call
Abram told her to take care of things, clearly poor protocol

To the Lord for guidance, neither Abram nor Sarai did turn 
Arrogance seeps in with bad leadership, always a concern
Scared, Hagar fled for her life and ended up in the desert
The angel found her, as God does not want anyone hurt

Hagar told God that she fleeing from Sarai, her mistress
The angel said “return and submit”, causing her distress
We must also obey the Lord, as it is for our own benefit
He knows the master plan and so to Him we must submit

To submit means to place under someone’s leadership
God knows our heart and troubles through our life trip
But since He is looking after us, we can walk in peace
Through the universe, His sovereignty does not cease

Per Hebrews, from the love of money we should be free
For God will provide more blessings, it is clear to see
Since the Lord is our helper, we have nothing to fear
He will deliver us into freedom and glory we did hear
