God lead Abram away from his country, his family, and everything familiar to him. God did not just lead Abram away from a place, he lead him to the promise land. The land God chose for His people. This is also a picture of the journey of Christianity. We are strangers in a foreign land. Our home is in heaven, the dwelling place of the almighty God (
Php 3:20).
Gen 12:1 The LORD had said to Abram, "Go from your country, your people and your father's household to the land I will show you.
Gen 13:14 The LORD said to Abram after Lot had parted from him, "Look around from where you are, to the north and south, to the east and west.
Gen 13:15 All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever.
