His Story of the Nations: Genesis 10 | Lord’s Day Sermon | 11th May, 2025 | Eyinna Abazie

In today’s message, Enyinna Abazie shows us that while Genesis 10 may look like just a list of names, it tells a much deeper story—one about how God shaped the nations.

Moses presents the spread of the nations as a fulfillment of God’s command to Noah in Genesis 9:1: “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.” And through Noah’s three sons, the nations are born. But this expansion isn't free from rebellion from the same family line.

Figures like Ham’s descendant, Nimrod strove for political and wordly conquest and later birthed empires that opposed God, reminding us that behind history lies a deeper spiritual conflict between God’s kingdom and human rebellion. Yet God enters a world of rebels to save not just one family line, but all nations.

This lavish grace demands a response. Brother Enyinna addresses history, historiography and hierarchy in this chapter of genealogy to ask: what legacy will your life write into the story God is telling? Will your spiritual descendants recall a life surrendered to Christ, shaped by prayer, love, and faith?
