Many people have heard the story about the genie in the lamp, one who grants three wishes to the lucky person who happens to rub up against it. It is a good little experiment for people: what do you really desire in this world? We can answer, with little effort, what Abram would ask from that genie: A child, an heir, a son. God is no genie, but he affirms Abram’s desire and reaffirms his promise. Yet, God also gets back from Abram what he wants and desires, namely Abram’s trust and faith. That, in the end, is what God truly wants from us all; that we trust him and believe his word.
1. God desires you to believe him
2. God helps you to believe him
