In our previous message we learned that Jehovah God chose Abrahm's Descendants to become His People and His Land. He established an Unconditional Covenant with the Jewish People. Our message will describe how this critically important event took place.
Abram started questioning Jehovah God about how He will make Abram and his descendants into a "Great Nation?" Our Lord and Savior responded to Abram in Genesis 13:14-17 saying, "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are - northward, southward, eastward and westward; for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever. And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth."
Abram is still questioning Jehovah God and asked Him in Genesis 15:8 "Lord God, how shall I know that I will inherit it?" Jehovah God responded to Abram in Genesis 15:9,10 "Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove and a young pigeon. Then he brought all these to Him and cut them in two, down the middle and placed each piece opposite the other."
Genesis 15:17 says, "And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there was a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces." All of us who study the Word of God know that our God works in mysterious ways. This verse certainly fits into that category.
However, Bible Scholars believe Jehovah God was the "Smoking Oven and Burning Torch" establishing His Unconditional Covenant with His Chosen People in this manner. Please notice Genesis 15:18 confirmed God was establishing a Covenant, "On the same day The Lord made a Covenant with Abram saying, 'To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates.'"
This Ends The Land Dispute In Israel!
Jehovah God Gave To His Chosen People
A Major Portion Of The Middle East!
End Of Discussion!
