I want to speak to you this morning about the end of Abraham’s earthly journey. And I cannot help but observe that, often in the Scriptures, when a man’s life is being described, there are no more than several verses that are given to us. But here in the book of Genesis, God through the Holy Spirit’s working through Moses’ words, in describing Abraham’s life we find that we have been given 13 chapters to examine and to think about. Truly the life of Abraham is one of the most significant in all the Bible and in all of human history. But this morning I want us to understand that it is God who is to be praised for the life of any man, especially great and godly men. The only reason that any man is great is because God has worked in him, or by him, to make him so. And so, as we focus our attention this morning, on the latter years of Abraham’s life, it will be good for us to praise to our God who gave so much grace and strength to Abraham that we are to think of him as “the father of all the faithful”. He is the same faithful God who gives strength and grace to us who believe in Him, through His Son our Lord Jesus Christ.
