GOD'S PROVISION FOR ISAAC
gENESIS 24:37-50
Key Concept:God's people trust in God's providence in every aspect of our lives.
By Genesis 24, Abraham was much older, and Sarah had died. But Isaac was unmarried. Wanting to get his family affairs in order and ensure the covenant promises lived on to another generation, Abraham sought to find Isaac a wife. Not wanting Isaac to marry one of the pagan Canaanites, Abraham sent one of his servants in Isaac's stead to his old homeland. The servant, trusting in the Lord's faithfulness to his master, went to Abraham's homeland and did exactly as Abraham said, bringing Rebekah home to her new husband.
As you examine Genesis 24:37-50:
✞ Note the servant's reliance on prayer and God's providence to help him be successful in
his mission.
✞ Reflect on how God orchestrated the events in the servant's journey to bring Rebekah to
Canaan for Isaac.
