Abraham-Issac-Jacob

2024 Read the Bible in a Year

January 9, 2024

Readings for Today: Genesis 24:1 - 25:18


Day 9 - Next Generations of the Promise


Prayer:

“May God give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.” (Psalm 20:4, NIV)


Adapted from a devotion online.


Basic Reflections:

The unfolding of the promises continues with …


  • Abraham tells the servant to find a wife for Isaac. Issac marries Rebekah.

  • Abraham’s second marriage, kids, and death.

  • 12 tribes of Ishmael and his long life.

  • Esau and Jacob are born as twins. Prophesied to be two nations with Esau selling his birthright (Isaac’s blessing.)


Question of the Day:

Can you see how God has been in your family history?


Tomorrow's Readings: Genesis 25:19 - 28:9
