If you look at the newspapers of the church, you can see advertisements titled "New Year's Blessing Crusade" in each advertisement section.
You can see that there is a lot without it. In spite of the severe cold, I went to the mountain to be blessed.
The zeal of those who go up to pray, sing hymns, and read the words of the Bible is worthy of imitation.
Do. Everyone has wishes for this year, and there are hopes that could not be fulfilled last year.
They seem to attend the Blessing Crusade, shivering from the cold without resting during the holidays when the two are playing.
Today's text is that Isaac said, "The LORD blessed him, and he became great and prosperous.
It became a refusal.” Today, consider some of the blessings Isaac received.
wants to
1. The blessing of inheritance (Genesis 25:5, Matthew 25:34)
In Genesis 12, God said to Abraham, “You will be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you, and those who curse you I will curse.
All the peoples of the world will be blessed through you.” A man in his day ate well.
It is important to live well, but even if one suffers a little, all possessions and faith
It is indeed a blessing to say that you pass on knowledge or skills to your children.
(1) According to Genesis 25:5, Isaac inherited the property of his father.
Genesis 24:36 says that Sarah bore a son to my master in her old age, and the master
He gave all that he had to his son. No matter how much wealth you have, you cannot give it to your children.
If it is a material, it cannot be said to be such a great blessing.
(2) The reserved nation is inherited
Matthew 25:34 says that when the Son of Man comes in glory with all the angels, he will destroy all nations
Gather them together and separate each one, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
He said to the sheep, "Come, you who are blessed by my Father, for you from the foundation of the world
Inherit the prepared country." Even if you live richer than others, you cannot waste a few thousand won.
However, the child to be inherited also died, and he himself died prematurely, and the rest of the property was passed on to others.
I've seen you enjoy it.
2. Isaac's Blessing
Although it was the year of the first famine in Abraham's time, verse 12 says, "Isaac was farming in the land.
In that year, he gained a hundredfold, and the LORD blessed him, so he became prosperous and prosperous.
It was finally rejected."
(1) In the year of famine, the crop was harvested 100 times, so it is a more precious treasure.
(2) There were very many times of sheep and cattle. At that time, livestock became a great asset.
(3) There were a lot of old clothes.
According to Genesis 14:14, there were 318 trained soldiers, their families and slaves.
Combined, a very large number would have been the maids of Abraham's house.
3. Life of the Blessed
(1) Isaac was a man of obedience
In Genesis 22:24, Abraham did not rebel when he tried to slaughter Isaac and offer a burnt offering.
All. According to Genesis 26:2, you tried to flee to Egypt, but God did not let you go.
So he did not go, but stayed in Gerar.
(2) In Genesis 26:25, Isaac was a man at the center of the altar.
Isaac built an altar there and called on the name of the Lord and pitched his tent there. now
The life of Dan firstism was the faith I learned from my father Abraham (Genesis 17:7,8,18).
(3) Isaac was a man of prayer
In Genesis 24:63, while praying in the field, I met a bride, and in Genesis 25:21, my wife
I prayed because of her barrenness, and God heard me.
(4) Isaac was a man of concession
They dug wells wherever they went, but they were taken away by the natives and dug again. The beauty of this concession
Virtue is also seen in the father Abraham, Genesis 13:8. Abraham to Lot
I had conceded all the good land.
This year should be a more blessed year. Blessings are what you ask for
it is not You must live to be blessed, and you must believe that you will be blessed. We are also Isaac
Let's try to get the same blessing.
