    Just because you are in the Promised Land or under the promises of God does not mean that you will not encounter problems. Isaac was in the promised land yet he was harassed and beset with problems. Yet despite all, God will bring you out.

    PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM: PROBLEMS IN THE PROMISED LAND GENESIS 26:1 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. 2 And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into ...read more

    When God Speaks are we able to discern and know that it is indeed HIM?

    “Keep Digging” Genesis 26:12-33 6-11-2023 Last week while looking at the “Prayers In the Bible” we saw that Isaac had an encounter with God. The prayer was not so much as Isaac praying but it was that God was speaking and so I titled it “When God Speaks.” When God Speaks are we able to discern ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Six. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that there is a famine in the land and God instructs Isaac not to go to Egypt: Isaac goes to Gerar instead and starts digging wells. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 26 Isaac, by God's command, sojourns in Gerar. ...read more

    Isaac revived the wells of his father Abraham, which brought waters, followed by peace with others. Initially he had to face the problems and hostility yet he was victorious because God was with him.

    DIG THE WELLS Gen 26:12-33 26:12-17 Blessings are gift from the Lord The life of Abraham and the life of Isaac are more or less same. There was famine, both went to foreign countries.

    Right at the moment that Isaac is about to celebrate his success by discovering water on the well, the Philistine snatched his rights and took over the same well by force. By the way, it is the third time that they deliberately did it. Will Isaac give up?

    NEVER GIVE UP: KEEP DIGGING THE WELLS Genesis 26:12-32 Crab Mentality! What do these words mean? It is a way of thinking best described by the phrase, "if I can't have it, neither can you.

    When Isaac was in the land of Philistine he was rich and flourishing, they became Jealous of him and the king (Abimelech) sent him away.

    17 So Isaac moved away from there and encamped in the Valley of Gerar, where he settled. 18 Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died, and he gave them the same names his father had given them. 19 Isaac’s ...read more

    Isaac was a man of faith, peace, and obedience. He experienced God’s blessings and was part of the covenant lineage. However, his mistakes in parenting show us the dangers of favouritism and spiritual blindness.
