How God’s Nature Shapes Us: Genesis 21 Lessons on Mercy & Peace
🔍 How God’s Nature Shapes Us: Genesis 21 Lessons on Mercy & Peace | Biblical Growth 2025 🔍
Discover how God’s nature influences our behavior in this deep dive into Genesis 21! Does following God mean acting a certain way? Explore the birth of Isaac, the exile of Hagar and Ishmael (Genesis 21:3, 6, 15-20 ESV), and Abraham’s peaceful covenant at Beersheba (Genesis 21:25-32 ESV) to see God’s mercy, love, and grace in action. We’ll unpack how growing closer to God transforms us, inspired by C.S. Lewis’s “Good Infection” from Mere Christianity.
🎥 What You'll Learn:
• The story of Isaac’s birth and Sarah’s laughter (Genesis 18:10, 12 ESV)
• God’s care for Hagar and Ishmael despite Sarah’s demands
• Abraham’s humility and peace-making with Abimelech
• How God’s nature—mercy, love, and forgiveness—shapes our Christian growth
📖 Key Verses:
• Genesis 18:10 ESV: “The Lord said, ‘I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife shall have a son.’”
• Genesis 18:12 ESV: “So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, ‘After I am worn out, and my lord is old, shall I have pleasure?’”
• Genesis 21:3, 6 ESV: “Abraham called the name of his son… Isaac. And Sarah said, ‘God has made laughter for me; everyone who hears will laugh over me.’”
• Genesis 21:11-13 ESV: “God said to Abraham, ‘Be not displeased… for through Isaac shall your offspring be named. And I will make a nation of the son of the slave woman also…’”
• Genesis 21:15-20 ESV: “God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar… Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water.”
• Genesis 21:25-32 ESV: “Abraham reproved Abimelech about a well… and the two men made a covenant.”
