The Well

Good, you go to church. You get water at the communal well but once a week isn’t enough. This is not religion, it’s a relationship. How do we develop a relationship, by spending time together. Genesis 29:2

Genesis 21:30-33 Dug a well, planted a tree and called on the name of the Lord, the Eternal God.

Genesis 26:24-25 “…Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bless you…Isaac built an altar there and called on the name of the Lord. There he pitched his tent, and there his servants dug a well.”

Call on the Lord and stay in that place, live in that place. Digging a well takes time, takes effort, but oh the joy that it brings.

Isaiah 12:3 “With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.”

There is refreshing, his blessings are new every morning and our reward is eternal life. John 4:6-26 Jesus tired from his journey sat down by the well and the story of the Samaritan woman, please read. Jesus said, “whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” “…true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks…”

The Moon

Then God commanded, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and to show the time when days, years, and religious festivals begin; they will shine in the sky to give light to the earth.”- and it was done.  So God made the two larger lights, the sun to rule over the day and the moon to rule over the night, and to separate light from darkness.

The moon so huge and round glowing in the dark, looking just like another earth except so far away.

A few stars peak out and wink at me as I watch the hazy clouds get thicker.  Everything looks so peaceful up in the sky, a magical blue, a glowing light and other little ones to kiss you goodnight.  Slowly the clouds move through the sky hiding the moon from my naked eye.  A beautiful ring is formed in the clouds from that tremendous light in the sky.  The clouds grow thicker and flow faster by as they cover the moon before I can say goodbye.

Genesis 1

Sacrifice

-Offering of something valuable to God!

In Genesis 22 when God asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, he didn’t even question God, he didn’t argue.

He just got up and started preparing for it.

Abraham feared God cause he was going to sacrifice his only son.

Do we fear God in that way?

Honour God in what he’s asking you to sacrifice—He Will Provide!

And You will be Blessed!

And even your descendants will bless and be blessed

Because you have obeyed God!
