The Vineyard- September 22, 2013

The Vineyard
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5

Genesis 14:1-24
Pray for God to speak to you through the reading of His word. 
Read the passage. 
-          Faith Risks for Others
o   Abram takes a great risk, even putting his life in jeopardy, to save his nephew Lot.  Would you risk so much for someone who had taken what was rightfully yours?
-          Faith is a Mutual Blessing
o   What people of faith has God placed in your path?
o   What encouragement do you receive from these people of faith?
-          Faith is its Own Reward
o   Abram doesn’t accept the offer of loot after his victory.  Why do you think that is?
o   How is faith its own reward for Abram?  How is it its own reward for you?
Pray that we will have a faith that is willing to take risks for others.
Pray that God will use our faith to bless others, and that God will place people in our lives whose faith blesses us.    
Pray that we will understand faith in God to be its own reward, and that it will be our chief source of hope and joy.
