I was reading today’s bible reading in Genesis and what really caught my
attention was in chapter 25, it says that “Isaac was 40 years when he took
Rebekah as wife ………………. [v21] now Isaac pleaded with the Lord for his wife, bcz
she was barren and the Lord granted his plea and Rebekah conceived …. [v26]
Isaac was 60 yrs old whn she bore them “
I was just looking at how it took 20 years for Rachel to finally have chn,
besides the fact that in those times pple lived until they were a hundred and
something years old, so maybe to them 20 years wasn’t so much, but that’s just
besides the fact that they were patient and God blessed them and kept his word
not only did he give them one baby but two sons, two nations. as we go on to
chapter 26 , we see how God continued to bless Isaac and his family , [v13]
says “ the man began to prosper ,and continued prospering until he became very
prosperous “ why was this so it was because he trusted on what God said to him
, he did not doubt , if God asked Him to do anything he wd do it right away and
god was so pleased with Him , he blessed him even in a foreign land that he
even became a threat to the foreigner thy even envied Him .
He was also blessed because of His father Abrahams obedience, God kept on
referring to his father saying because your father obeyed my voice, I am going
to do so and so, which makes me think, what am I doing now so that whn I have
chn they will be blessed even whn iam not around anymore, am I obeying god
voice and commandments so that God will keep referring to me whn he talks to my
Kids and grandchn [food for thought]
as we are fasting we need to keep on encouraging each other not grow weary ,
and everyday we need to share what God is saying to us , cz you never know whom
it might help .
Blessed day
