🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(2/8/26)[Prayer]





A New Study For A New Year: Personalities

Genesis 24:10-27

10 And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.

11 And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water.

12 And he said O Lord God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham.

13 Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water:

14 And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master.

15 And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

16 And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.

17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.

18 And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.

19 And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.

20 And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.

21 And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.

22 And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;

23 And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?

24 And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.

25 She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.

26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord.

27 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master's brethren.

The King James Version

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem




Our Father In Heaven,
Blessed and Glorious Is Your Most Holy and Wonderful Name!
We Come Into Your Presence With Singing
and Into Your Courts With Praise.
For Your Alone Are Worthy,
You Alone Are LORD,
You Alone Are the True God.
Let Your Holy Word Be Written Deep Upon Our Hearts,
Bound upon Our Right Hands,
And as a Frontlet Between Our Eyes!

Oh Father, for even when we murmur and are unfaithful,
YOU ARE FOREVER FAITHFUL.

Let all that has been Concealed
Be Revealed.

Father, We Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Pray That You Will Forgive The Sins
of Our Own Nation,
and Lead us all to Godly Repentance.
Create in Us Clean Hearts, Oh LORD,
and Renew a Right Spirit Within Us.

This we Pray Together,
As We Await Your Messiah,
Blessed Be He,
To Set Up His Kingdom,
And Make All Things Right.

________________________

Here we are , the week leading up to Valentine's Day, and we are about to embark on a little Romance in the Bible.

Arranged Marriages were a "thing" in those days, and most families preferred to seek a spouse within their own tribe. As we have seen, that led to some awkward situations. Even without the genetic issues, there were family dynamics that could boil up into enmity.

Nevertheless, Abraham wanted a Bride for Isaac from his own kinspeople, and not (God Forbid!) from the pagan Canaanites. Could the Story of Noah's Sons filtered down through the ages and reached Abraham's ears through oral tradition? Remember, the Torah had not yet been given, and there was no Law against "keeping it in the family".

Although the Patriarchs knew nothing about DNA, God DID, because He designed it. My conjecture is that God, in His Divine Providence, protected Shem's Line, as it would eventually lead to the Messiah.

Neither Queen Victoria nor the Hapsburg's could claim such Divine Protection, and it could be argued that WW1 was the end product. (The Hapsburg's really took it on the chin!).





Bear in mind, that, in WW1, the Sovereigns of Great Britain, Germany, and Imperial Russia ALL had the same Grandmother.

Abraham's Servant (Eliezer?) carried out his mission to find a Bride for Isaac from among Abraham's own kinsmen. He prayed to God for a "sign", and God honored his prayer. It was a very detailed sign...that Isaac's Intended would approach him, offer him water, and even water his camels at the well. This was above and beyond ordinary hospitality. It would have been a sure thing, even if the woman were not good-looking, or nice about it. If Rebecca had been dumpy and irritable, but still did those actions, Eliezer would be stuck with her. One has to be careful when one tries to instruct the Creator of the Universe how to get things done!

Fortunately for Eliezer (and for Isaac!), Rebecca was a sweet, cheerful, virginal girl who immediately volunteered to give Eliezer and his men water, and to water the camels too!

She was the one!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

”Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” (Hosea 6:3 NIV)

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America.

I’ve heard commentary that this interaction portents the calling of the Church.

God the Father (Abraham) sends the Holy Spirit (the servant) into the world to call out His Church (the bride, Rebecca) for His Son (Isaac).

Nearly everything in the OT relates to the NT...even the weird stuff.
