Two Ways to Live — Genesis 16-17 | Dave Miers

How do we live when we’re tempted to take control? Abram and Sarai know God’s promises, but instead of waiting for him, they try to bring them about themselves—with painful consequences. Yet God sees, hears and remains gracious. God reminds Abraham that he is Almighty and able to do what he has promised. There are two ways to live: taking control or trusting God. We can entrust ourselves to Jesus, our risen Lord, knowing that God keeps his promises.✨ Count the Stars | Genesis 12–25 Series📖 Genesis 16-17🎙️ Preached by Rev Dave Miers at Christ our Refuge on 16 August, 2026📝 Outline:1/ TWO WAYS TO LIVE: TAKING CONTROLGenesis 16Mark 7:24-302/ TWO WAYS TO LIVE: TRUSTING GODGenesis 17Galatians 4Romans 4🎥 Filmed and published by Good News Unlimited⸻🔗 Learn more or connect with us:🌐 Christ our Refuge – a gospel-centred church in Brisbane, Australia, offering refuge, security, and hope in Christ - ⁠https://christrefuge.co⁠🌐 Good News Unlimited – exists to help everyday people see Jesus clearly in God’s word... so they can enjoy grace, life, and hope without limits - https://goodnewsunlimited.com🙌 Subscribe for weekly sermons, biblical teaching, and gospel encouragement.⸻#goodnewsunlimited #seejesusclearly #christrefugeco  #gospel #bibleteaching #sermon #Jesus
