Title/ The Way Jehovah Leads
Text/ Genesis 24:1-9
Humans have a predictable future, and an unpredictable future.
Only God has omniscience (Hebrews 4:13), knowing everything about the past, present, and future, and He is omnipotent (Genesis 17:1) who can accomplish everything according to His plan.
“Abraham said to the old servant who was in charge of all possessions in his house…Go to my hometown and to my clan, and take a wife for my son Isaac.” Looking at the image of “Eliezer”, a man who lived with the approval of his master for a long time, grace Let's share
1, The way that leads to those who pray
“O LORD, I pray that I may find it easy today.”
The first thing Eliezer did when he arrived in Haran was to pray for the blessing of meeting.
“He (God) will send his angel (angel) before you (Eliezer)” verse 7
Abraham sends an old servant whom he trusts to his hometown Haran and tells the fact that God's messenger helps him.
If I do God's work, God sends an angel to help me tomorrow.
(Numbers 20:16) “We cried out to the LORD, and he heard our voice, and sent an angel to visit us.
You brought it out of Egypt."
(Proverbs 16:9) “A man plans his way in his heart, but the Lord directs his steps.”
2, He guides you on the right path. Verse 48
The surest way to go on the right path is to follow Jesus on the way to heaven.
(John 14:6) “Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through me.”
Jesus tore His body for the sins of sinners and opened up a new and living way.
(Hebrews 10:20) “It is a new and living way that he opened for us through the veil, and the veil is his flesh” (Matthew 27:51) “The veil of the sanctuary was torn from top to bottom.”
If you want to be led on the right path, you must abandon your thoughts and leave it to God. (Psalm 37:5)
(Isa 53:6) “We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way, but the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all” (Proverbs 14:12). It is the way of death.”
Gospel Hymn / Chapter 855 “Lord, do not remember all my deeds, but guide me in the right way.”
3, He leads you on a prosperous path. verse 56
Rebekah's older brother and his mother begged him to stay for about ten more days, but he sees a servant who must return to his master quickly.
After completing the task entrusted to you, you should return to your master rather than resting in a good environment.
We must also have a home to return to when our lives are over.
The Israelites grumbled and complained against the God who had led them, but they witnessed the amazing sight of God who opened the Red Sea and prepared a prosperous way in front of them.
(Exodus 13:17-22) “And the LORD went before them, to guide their way with a pillar of cloud by day, and with a pillar of fire by night to give light to them, so that they proceed day and night.”
The Lord is working neither slumber nor sleep (Psalm 121:4) to lead the way of the people.
Just as he heard the prayer of Eliezer, Abraham's old servant, and led him to “the right path and the prosperous path,” he is guiding our path even today.
(Proverbs 5:21) “For a man's ways are before the eyes of the Lord, and he makes all his paths straight.”
“Lord, I will only go the way you lead.”
I will go, I will go in Your way-
