one, and I blessed him and made him many.”
Gen 12v1-5 - Sarah
When
God asked Abram to leave home, Sarah went along with him. She did not say, "Go and
I will come and join you later." She also obeyed him even when she probably
did not agree with his suggestion regarding their marital status on two separate
occasions. (Genesis 12v10-20 & 20v1-18).

Lord,
help me to trust you fully in my relationship knowing fully well that You know
all things and help will always come from You.

God
backed up Sarah by dealing with Pharaoh and Abimelech on both occasions and

obeyed Abram but went to God in prayers to ask Him to help her deal with the
situation she found herself. Since God helped her with Pharaoh, she was assured
that God will help her with Abimelech and He sure did.
