Triumphal Feast – Lowrance Ministries

“Jacob Blesses Joseph’s Sons” • Hebrews 11:21 – Elder Bryce Lowrance Elder Lowrance traces the history of the patriarchs from Abraham to Joseph showing how the children of Israel ended up in Egypt. While there, Jacob blesses Ephraim and Manessah on his death bed. Once again, we see an excellent example of how faith is not blind but is putting trust in the word of God.  This message was preached on Sunday, February, 23, 2025.

“The Interesting Case of Isaac’s Faith” • Hebrews 11:20 – Elder Bryce Lowrance Ignoring the declaration of God before Jacob and Esau are born that the elder would serve the younger, Isaac continually favors Esau as the firstborn. Even when he think he is going to die, Isaac tries to bless Esau but accidentally blesses Jacob. When he realizes that he has gone against God’s will, Issac trembles and then ultimately declares in faith that Isaac will be blessed as the promised one.  Part 2 begins where Jacob comes in to Isaac dressed as Esau. This message was preached on Sunday, February 16, 2025.

“Abraham’s Trial of Faith” • Hebrews 11:17-19 – Elder Bryce Lowrance Through one of the most striking trials of faith we find in the Bible, we learn that walking by faith is not blind faith like many describe it. Abraham did not toss out reason when he willingly offered up Isaac. He reasoned that God would raise him from the dead since he was the promised son. We do not have to take blind leaps of faith either. We have the will of God revealed to us in His word, the Bible. We are called to trust the promises of God and understand that His promises are true! The conclusion of part 1 taught us that walking by faith is not a blind leap of faith but a trusting in the promises of God. Part 2 begins with the example of this in David's courage to face Goliath.
