3 WELLS

LAST SUNDAY CHURCH NOTES

WELL, WELL, WELL
Genesis 26:19-22

Also Isaac's servants dug in the valley,
and found a well of running water there.

But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen,
saying "The water is ours."

So he called the name of the well Esek (quarrel),
because they quarreled with him.

Then they dug another well and they quarreled over that one also.
So he called its name Sitnah (enmity).

And he moved from there and dug another well,
and they did not quarrel over it.

So he called its name Rehoboth (spaciousness),
because he said, "For now the LORD has made room for us,
and we shall be fruitful in the land."

A WELL
is a symbol of God's blessings...

Even though Isaac had already received God's blessings,

"I will bless you and multiply your descendants

for my servant Abraham's sake," (Gen. 26:24)

He still had to dig the wells.

GOD'S PROMISES ARE TRUE...

But we still have to dig the wells.
