Hebrews 11: A 5-Day DevotionalSample

Four generations of Israel’s forebears illustrate the forward-looking hope that characterizes faith in the living God, who drew them into his gracious covenant. Our faith often fluctuates and falters. The brutally honest record of Genesis shows that theirs fluctuated and faltered also. Yet their experiences of God’s faithfulness and power bear witness to us from the pages of Scripture, and their testimony must fortify our fragile faith.
They trusted and followed a Lord who could begin with an elderly, childless couple and create a countless multitude of descendants; who could confer on the offspring of a tent-dwelling nomad the possession of a bountiful homeland; who could raise the dead; and who could lift their hearts’ line of sight beyond the span of their earthly “sojourn” to greet “from afar” blessings to come in a distant future and a “better country” than anything we have yet encountered.
