“And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.”
Abraham explains that when God had him wander from his father's household, he asked Sarah everywhere they went to say he was her brother. The systemic nature of the plan is now revealed — a standing policy of self-protection deployed routinely. This was not a one-time fear response but a rehearsed deception. The application: identify your own standing policy of self-protection that covers the territory where your faith has not yet grown.
