Contents
?Faithful servant (Genesis 24:15-20)
? A man who lived a worthwhile life.
A. Abraham's old servant is sent to Haran to find a wife for Isaac.
B.4:12 “May I find someone who will become my master’s daughter-in-law safely.”
? Encounter is living in the providence of God.
(During the meeting, you meet your parents, you meet your brothers, you meet your wife.)
A: Not by chance.
B. There is a purpose.
C. There is God's guidance.
?Two loyal people in the text.
1. Abraham's old servant.
? The owner is a person who prays and moves for work.
? 24:12 Let us meet in peace (I am a person of prayer.)
? 24:26 Then the man bowed his head and worshiped the LORD...
? A person who fulfills the mission whether the owner sees it or not.
? 24:33-49 A person who carries out his or her mission thoroughly.
2. Rebekah, a virtuous woman.
? Rebekah is a diligent person (a woman who knows how to prepare dinner for tomorrow).
? A woman with a warm heart
(Rebekah is a woman with a warm heart, a woman who serves both people and even animals).
? She makes a major decision before God's will
(24:37-49 explains what he prayed after arriving in Haran).
※The parents and Rebekah also decide to leave.
How could Rebekah make such a critical decision?
They know that it is God's will, and they give themselves up.
※If you want to have a successful life.
May you make a major decision to give yourself up for the life God wants you to be.
※When the old servant went to rescue Isaac's wife
Isaac was praying in the field.
God's grace, both in the past and now
It works on those who pray.
