Genesis 26... there was a famine in the land.. Isaac obeyed God. THE SAME YEAR, the year of FAMINE; ISAAC REAPED 100 TIMES AS MUCH AS HE PLANTED!!!

Genesis 26

Room for us

For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.

Isaac dug 3 times, first two was successful but yet was taken away. And then at the 3rd time, no one came and took it away from him. God’s blessings is really surrounding Isaac and wherever he goes. But I think Isaac’s faith is also the main objective of this story as well. 

How many we dug our own well, and someone take it away from us? How many times, we poured out our time, our finance or even our feelings, and all we got is betrayal. But Isaac kept on with the second one, and then the third till he got where God wants him to be at and no one bother him for it. 

I pray that we will not be discouraged and stop at what God called us to be at, or be to do. Continue not because of blind faith or stubborn at what we think what’s right. But continue to believe from the promises and the little signs that God placed around us. I pray that we will not find vision and wisdom in Him and Him only.

Amen

Genealogies... are boring?

And here we see another genealogy in Genesis 36 - Esau’s descendants to be exact. 

Honestly, I’ve always thought genealogies were kind of boring. Who wants to read a list of names, right? But as I dive deeper into Genesis, I find myself in wonder of them because it reminds me of how great God’s love is for me. 

It’s so mind-blowing how God knows each and every person in this list of names. He knows who belongs to which family or tribe. He knows who’s a father or mother, a husband or wife, and a son or daughter. He knows who’s a ruler or chief. He knows which region they live in. He knows their special skills or what they do. 

I mean, look at verse 24: “The sons of Zibeon...

“...Aiah and Anah. This is the Anah who discovered the hot springs in the desert while he was grazing the donkeys of his father Zibeon.” - Genesis 36:24

This is such a random insignificant act but yet God remembers. I can barely remember one person’s name or their basic profile, but God remembers a lot more than one. He knows every little detail about all humans on this very Earth... and there are a lot of humans. How great is the Father’s love for us, that he’s relentlessly pursues us and wants to know every single parts of us. 

He knows my deepest secrets and fears. He knows my heart and my desires. He knows the significant and insignificant events of my life. And through it all, he still loves me. A Father who knows and wants to know you... what more can I ask for?
