Bible Verse: Genesis 18:1-4

Five Questions:
1.     Has God ever promised you anything?  How did you know?
2.     When God promised Abraham and Sarah that they would have a child, they doubted Him.  Sarah even laughed at the idea. Why wasn’t’ God angry with them?
3.     Sarah was 89 years old when God told her she would have a child.  To have children was very important to her, but she laughed.  Do you think it was nervous laughter?  Do you think she was afraid?
4.     Abraham and Sarah saw men physically at their campsite, they heard them speak.  They heard God’s promise with their own ears.  What ways does God “speak” to us today?
5.     Sarah had to learn to trust God the hard way.  She had heard God’s promise but doubted.  We have God’s promises in the form of a book
called the Bible.  How can we learn to trust God’s promises?


Close in prayer and ask for prayer requests.
