Wise Counsel

Steve Dyck www.EasTview.org
Genesis 20
Abraham 12-25
Old habits die hard. Abraham had that problem. He did not ask for advice. God did not tell him to move. 
Why did he move? The fire from Sodom burned all the fields. 

Abraham moved south to the Negev and lived for a while between Kadesh and Shur, and then he moved on to Gerar. While living there as a foreigner,
Genesis 20:1 NLT

The city meant conflict. Later Isaac did the same thing. 

Who are you dating? Quitting your job? Did you search for good advice? 
Humbly seek help. Most people want to help. Russia show where the audience was asked for the right answer they misled the contestant.

Chris Pratt speech 9 points. Generation Award. God is real. God  loves you. He was bold. 

Abraham lied to protect his butt. 
Kiwi looks ugly but tastes good. Donuts can surprise you. 

I invited a friend to church. He refused because we had too many rich people. What's inside is hurting people. Don't judge by appearance. 

Abraham made a mess and judged wrongly. 
Then Abimelech called for Abraham. "What have you done to us?" he demanded. "What crime have I committed that deserves treatment like this, making me and my kingdom guilty of this great sin? No one should ever do what you have done! Whatever possessed you to do such a thing?"
Genesis 20:9‭-‬10 NLT

The grace of God. 
Have you judged others? 
Make it right. 

Grew up in a judging family until I got judged and discovered Grace. God's love is never ending.
