I’ve recently been studying the different covenants God made with man. This has been very intriguing to look at the story of Noah, Abram, Issac, and Jacob in a new light. As interesting as each of the covenants has been; there is one thing that specifically stood out to me and it’s the details.
If you take a moment to read Genesis 15:9: The Lord told Abram, “Bring me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”
God was very specific in what He wanted to be sacrificed. He was specific in what He spoke.
As I pondered on this more, I began to wonder why we limit God in thinking that He can’t give specifics today. God was meticulous in how He formed the world, how He knit us together in our mother’s womb, and how He created us as masterpieces; yet when we approach Him in prayer, we put limitations on what He can do.
Maybe you are believing God for something in this season and you are looking for specifics, I pray that you are reminded of how He can and will provide the details needed to make the right decisions.
Let us remember that He is a God who specializes in the details but it is up to us to seek, pray and believe.

I love that God established convenants with the people of old. I love that He also establishes covenants with us today. I think I’m going to take another look at this topic. ☺️
