I believe people are amazing but we have limited knowledge. We try to solve our problems with limited wisdom. We forget to ask God for help.
When we depend on ourselves then we will fail. Abram and his wife failed. They don't have faith in God.
God's promises are true but we rely on our promises. God's promises will be a blessing but our promises will be a curse.
Hagar was having a child so the Messiah could be in the inheritance. But that wasn't God's plan, it was the plan of Abram and his wife.
Abram's wife had issues with Hagar. So she ask Hagar to leave the house of Abram. This is ironic because Abram's wife thought Hagar having a child was a good idea.
Abrams' lack of faith causes issues. Hagar is the mother of the Arabs. There are a serious problem between the Jews and the Arabs.
We need to believe God and allow God to do his will. We have limits and God have no limits.
Mankind needs to submit to Jesus. Mankind have sinned and deserve hell.
Jesus died on the cross and arose from the dead. If we repent and follow Jesus. Then we can go to heaven and experience God.
Genesis 16:5-6
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “You are responsible for the wrong I am suffering. I put my slave in your arms, and now that she knows she is pregnant, she despises me. May the Lord judge between you and me.”
6 “Your slave is in your hands,” Abram said. “Do with her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai mistreated Hagar; so she fled from her.
