God faithfulness continues from Abraham and a Sarah to Isaac and Rebekah.

The promises of God mean there is hope beyond the grave.

Our faith grows as we trust and obey God with the things most precious to us.

God is faithful to his word and fulfills his promise to Abraham and Sarah.

God is faithful even when we are fearful and faithless.

This story is a cautionary tale for us. And like all good cautionary tales, we are meant to learn from the mistakes of others so we don’t make those same mistakes ourselves. God is inviting us to peer into the horrific brokenness of this story and consider it, learn from it, and do something about it. Because even though the city of Sodom had been destroyed by God, we see that the spirit of Sodom was alive and well in the hearts of Lot and his two daughters.

Through Christ, God guarantees his promises of the new covenant to us by giving us a new identity, by knowing him by a new name (as our Father), and giving us a new sign (his Spirit).
