CUT THE UMBILICAL CORD (RELOADED)
"So Abram departed as the Lord had instructed, and Lot went with him." (Gen. 12:4,NLT) The original command was "Leave your native country, your relatives and your father's family..."(V1) But for Lot to go with Abram even though he left his homeland, was a sign that there would be problems in the future. And that was exactly what happened. Anytime we carry along certain people or things which are not originally part of God's plan for us, there is always bound to be issues at some point. Abram did well by obeying God when He asked him to leave his family to another place. But what was Lot's business going with him? Did God ask him to follow Abram? Abram had to suffer for not cutting that "umbilical cord" completely. As we all know, his decision to have "LOT" with him, rather cost him "A LOT". As soon as the disconnection was done, God reaffirmed His promise to Abram in Gen. 13:14. You must also deal with that person or thing that is fighting your destiny. Chop it off! AB@TWD
