The Roadmap To Your Life
Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. - Genesis 17:5 (KJV).
When my mother went into labor with me, she had toxemia. She had convulsions on the delivery table. My Mom and I almost died.
In the quietness of her hospital room, after the delivery, she heard God speak to her as clear as day. He said, "Her name is Annagail."
I believe that our names are a roadmap for our lives. A roadmap to who we are supposed to be.
In my name, for instance, Anna means Grace, Gracious, Mericiful and Gail means Joy Of The Father, My father’s joy.
When God changed Abram's name to Abraham, He changed the direction of Abraham's life.
Now he was Abraham--father of many nations.
Every time his friends and family called him Abraham, they were calling him the father of many nations.
The more he heard his name and the more he spoke his name, the more he believed that he was the father of many nations. He could then see it in his heart.
Whatever the dream we have from God, we need to speak it until we believe it. Speak it until we see it in our hearts. Then like Abraham, we will receive what God promised us.

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour? Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin? That He was raised from the dead? Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins. Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour." If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again. Let us know if you prayed this prayer.
