“Abraham obeyed my voice”

ByInHIM

Gen. 26:5

Abraham was obedient to the LORD and so, the LORD said of him: “Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.” Though Abraham was no more when this was said, the blessings that Isaac received because of the obedience of his father Abraham; and of the manifold blessings that follows after Isaac to Jacob, to the Israelites and even unto us today is a matter worth thinking about.

Will the Lord say of us today, “…………… obeyed my voice”?

How will we be remembered?
