God is not omnipresent. That sounds heretical, doesn’t it? Particularly as it also challenges thousands of years of theology and the long-held beliefs of an innumerable number of people, both dead and alive.

From our reference passage, we see God introducing Himself to Abraham by saying He is the Almighty God. Another word for almighty is omnipotent. In other words, the God of all might and power who has the ability to do and to undo.

Another lesson we can learn from Abraham and imbibe for a lasting walk with God is blind faith. Abraham was a blind believer with an unquestioning belief in God’s promise, even without proof or evidence to validate it.

Another good example we can learn from Abraham's character is that he was an astute boss who believed in the development of his workers. He was a classic example of a boss who empowers his workers.

Another sterling attribute we can learn from Abraham's character is responsibility. He was a quintessential responsible man, as we can see in our reference passage today.

There is an African slang used to describe someone like him, “money-missed-road!” Unfortunately, that was how we first became acquainted with Lot in the Bible. as a rich dumbass.

Another sterling quality that we can learn from the man, Abraham, was his maturity and peace-loving nature. He was a man of peace, full of maturity and wisdom.

However, it is interesting that Abraham did not start out as the larger-than-life figure we know him to be today. On the contrary, he came across as a timid, laidback and complacent fellow.

Having considered the terrible mistakes made by Ham, the second son of Noah, in turning his father's nudity into a topic of gossip and joke, it is apt for us to look at the scene from another point of view so as to make our lessons from this scenario more balanced. In that regard, we shall be looking at the man Noah as an example of recklessness and how not to be a father.

Another endearing attribute of God that we shall meditate on today is His predilection for agreeing with human dreams and wishes, particularly those that are lofty, audacious and do not conflict with His will, a la the tower of Babel. He is an agreeable God.
