*CAC LIVING WATER DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE*
*Sunday, March 22, 2020 - World Water Day*
*TOPIC:*DIG YOUR WELLS*
*Read: Genesis 26:15-19*
Genesis 26:15-19 For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
*MEMORISE: Also Isaac's servant dug in the valley, and found a well of running water there (Genesis 26:19)*
*EXPOSITION*
The Holy Bible is not a textbook on Geography, but has elements on world geography. Genesis 1:1-4 tells us about the creation of the world as well as the solar system.
The same Bible assures us about the waters under the earth. Psalms 24:1-2 tells that God established the earth upon the waters. This shows that the earthly dust only covers the waters under it. If anyone dares to dig his wells, he will find waters. There is water inside your earth that needs to be dug out. Isaac kept on digging wells, in spite of the obstacles, because he needed them for irrigation, and for his people and livestock to survive.
Many are thirsty today on their lands, because they do not dig their wells. If you look at the barriers before you, you will do nothing. Look away from the resistance of the "people of Gerar" around you. Dig your wells now, and there will be waters for you to quench your thirst. Don't forget, Isaac had stayed in that land according to divine injunction (Gen. 26:1-12). Thank God he was wise enough not to stay idle; he sowed in the land (v. 12), and dug wells (v. 19). God brought the increase, notwithstanding the oppositions/attacks.
There are spiritual and natural gifts God has deposited in you. There are natural skills that you possess. Begin to use them the way God wants.
Before you know it, people around you will be celebrating you. Prayerfully think of, and come up with little business ideas that can raise your income level, giving you multiple income strings.
Think deeply today, and dig your wells. You will see water gushing out for you to drink. Dig your well for waters. Harness every grace God has deposited inside and around you for your benefit and His glory. Don't waste them.
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. I refuse to dig wells where there is no water for my comfort, in Jesus' name.
2. God of all flesh, position me where there are abundant blessings for me on earth.
3. Pray for CAC Men's Association that God should give the leaders and members the right visions that would make the group what He desires of it.
*EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: Deuteronomy 10 - 11 & John 15*
*REMEMBER THAT JESUS IS THE SOLUTION TO ALL SITUATIONS.......... SHALOM*
