GROUP DISCUSSION GUIDE WHATEVER IT TAKES #1 “GOD SPEAKS. ABRAHAM FOLLOWS” Genesis 11:31-32, 12:1-9
1.
Abram’s story begins with God’s call to follow Him. In what ways has God called you and directed your life so far?
2.
God didn’t specify exactly where He wanted Abram to go, yet Abram stepped out in faith. Describe times when you stepped out into the unknown. How did you feel, not knowing where the next step would lead?
3.
God called Abram to leave his identity, his means of survival, his means of livelihood, and his comfort. Are you ready to follow God wherever He leads you? What sometimes keeps you from following God that way?
4.
Why is it so hard to let go of what you have in order to receive what only God can give?
5.
Read Genesis 12:2-3. God gave Abraham an incredible promise, a promise almost too good to be true. Do you find it hard to trust that God has your best interests at heart? How has your life been blessed when you followed God?
6.
Abram worshipped twice in this passage. Once at Shechem, and once at Bethel. What is the significance of Abram’s willingness to worship, when all he had so far from God was a promise? Are you sometimes motivated to worship God because of His promises instead of your current circumstances?
