We all know and see the results in the world and many suffer horribly. I am talking about what resulted when Abram and Sarai … (later changed by God to Abraham and Sarah) … took matters into their own hands rather than simply wait upon God to do as He promised. Sarai was old and Abram was even older. Sarai had lost hope of having a baby God promised her so she took matters into her own hands and told Abram to go sleep with her hand maiden, Hagar … that she might bring forth a child for Abram.
Now what man is going to refuse that scenario … and even with his wife’s blessing. Hagar had Abram’s son. God was not pleased with their disobedience as He was quite capable of bringing forth a son even though they were both old. After Hagar’s son was born Sarai got upset over the whole thing and ordered both Hagar and her son out of their camp. That son was the result of the hand of the flesh and that is when and how it all started. His name was Ishmael and he was the first Arab. Ever since then there has been hostility between the Arabs and the Jews. God promised Abraham that His son, Isaac and his offspring was to be the one who inherited the blessing of God … not Ishmael. God said of Ishmael and his descendants that he was a warring person … always fighting and making trouble … even with his own people. That is why there is so much unrest and almost constant fighting among the Arabs. Despite how all this came about God loved Hagar and Ishmael and took care of them and promised that He would make a great nation out of Ishmael’s offspring. The Arabs have flourished and indeed become a great nation (race of people) and spread over a large area of the world.
Sadly satan has taken great advantage of the situation between Israel and the Arabs. Thruout history there has been lots of trouble over these two nations.
Every time the Arabs have chosen to attack Israel they have lost. One would think they would learn that they don’t stand a chance going up against Israel, but apparently not.
The Arabs are taught to hate the Jews. To make matters worse satan has taken over the Arab world by deceiving them and introducing them to a satanic religion which completely blinds them and tells them to live in violence forcing their evil ways upon others. Their holy book was clearly written by someone who was lead of satan. All one has to do to clearly see this is to compare their holy book to God’s holy book, the bible. What a contrast! Just keep in mind the fact that satan is hate while God is love.
Muslims claim that they have a religion of peace. Take a look at what their holy book says and tell me that their religion is peaceful.
Jeremiah 17:9-10 says “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.” Man apart from God is capable of doing horrific evil.
Then look at the actions of the followers of each and tell me which one is of a loving God and which one is driven by the devil. October 7, 2024 sure paints a clear picture of what I am talking about. Israel can certainly testify to this. The Muslim population is huge. It is so sad to see all this evil … all thru satan’s deception. And they call Israel the little satan and America the big satan. It is plain enough to see who is ruled over by satan. I don’t hate the Arabs, but I hate their religion. I would like to see it wiped off of the map.
No, when we try to take control of something God said He would do all we will do is mess things up. Sarai surely did this and the whole world suffers the consequences.
