When
Lot was captured, Abram set out to rescue him from his enemies. In so doing, he
happened to help out some of the local kings. When Melchizedek, king and high
priest of Salem, offers him his due reward of the land he liberated, Abram
declines it. Abram could have owned a large portion of the Promised Land after
conquering the foreign enemy kings. But he chooses to trust in God’s Time and
Way and apparently this isn’t it. In the same way, we are called to place our
trust in God’s promises and provisions and not in the grabbing, overpowering
ways of the world. Theme: Trust
