Faithfulness in the hand of Providence | Genesis 24

On Sunday, 2nd February Pastor Craig Baxter was back with the the series 'Genesis: God's Unveiling Plan of Redemption and Blessing' and delivered 'Faithfulness in the hand of Providence' Genesis 24.

Watch the sermon here.

In a masterful, romantic tale, akin to the story of Ruth and Boaz, as his final prescribed act, Abraham entrusted his faithful servant with the responsibility of finding a bride for Isaac his son from his country and from among his kindred. Trusting in the Lord’s covenantal faithfulness to prosper his way, the servant faithfully and resolutely carried out his task under the providential guidance of the Lord. In the end the Lord answered the prayers of the servant and provided Rebekah to be Isaac’s wife. In this study we learn that God’s faithful, obedient servants can trust in God’s leading to give them guidance and success in fulfilling God’s purposes.

• Believers must be absolutely committed to God’s will (vv. 1-7)
• Believers can be totally confident in God’s power to achieve His will (vv. 8-9)
• Believers must plead with God to reveal His will (vv. 10-27)
• Believers should seek the affirmation of others to discern God’s will (vv. 28-55)
• Believers must promptly submit to God’s will (vv. 54-60)
• Believers can be assured that the Lord will complete His purposes through our faithfulness (vv. 60-67)
