“So, Abram went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he pitched his tents. There he built an altar to the Lord.” Genesis 13:18 NIV
Abram does again that which has become his trademark. He builds an altar for the worship of the Lord. A life that is lived in communion with the Lord is a life that our Lord can bless! He desires that every one of us be in a place where we love Him more than anything else in this world. He wants us to acknowledge Him. He wants us to exalt Him. He wants us to love Him. He desires our worship, read John 4:23-24! The Lord is absolutely self-sufficient. Psalm 50:10-15 reminds us of this. He needs nothing! He does not need us. But He wants us! That is precious and we should all determine that we will live our lives for His glory, considering the fact that Jesus gave His life for our salvation. Where are you in your relationship and walk with our Lord? Are you as close as you should be? Are you growing deeper each day in the things of the Lord? When He speaks, do you move? Are you concerned with strengthening your fellowship with Him day by day? Is His worship the number one priority in your life? Those are hard questions to hear and face, but they reveal a lot about the condition of our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. May we determine that, like Abram, our life will be characterized by our altars and by our obedience to the voice of God
