Will You Trust God Without Knowing the Details?
Genesis 11:27–12:9
Series: God’s Promises, Our Journey
Sermon by Darien R. Gabriel (https://DarienGabriel.com)
What do you do when God calls—but doesn’t give you all the details?
In Genesis 11:27–12:9, God calls Abram to leave what is familiar and follow Him into an unknown future. There is no map, no timeline, and no explanation—only God’s voice, His promises, and a direction to move. This moment becomes a turning point not only in Abram’s life, but in the story of God’s redemption for the world.
In this message, we explore how God initiates redemption, calls His people to trust Him before they understand everything, and blesses them not merely for themselves but for the sake of the nations. God’s promises anchor us in uncertain places, and true faith responds with obedience, worship, and public witness, even when the journey is unclear.
This sermon launches a series through the life of Abraham called God’s Promises, Our Journey (Genesis 12–25) and invites us to wrestle with a question every follower of Jesus must answer:
Will you trust God without knowing the details?
Key Themes:
Trusting God before clarity comes
God’s promises and global mission
Faith expressed through obedience, worship, and witness
Being blessed to be a blessing
Living as channels, not reservoirs, of God’s grace
