Let's Open up God's word this morning. I want to invite you to turn to Genesis chapter 26 for our time of study in the word this morning. We're doing a series through the book of Genesis, and as we continue in our series through this book, we come to Genesis 26. We're gonna look at verses 1 through 14 today and if you want to give a title to the message this morning, it would be, Isaac's Blessed Life now.
On one level, it, it would seem that Isaac gets shortchanged in the Book of Genesis. think of the four patriarchs that end up being talked about through most of the book of Genesis. There's Abraham and Isaac, Jacob, and then Joseph. From Genesis 12 all the way to the end, chapter 50, you can break down.
All of the chapters by their devotion to one of those four patriarchs. And among those four, Abraham gets 14 chapters, 12 to 25, Jacob gets 10 chapters, chapters 27 to 36, Joseph gets 14 chapters. Verses 37 through 50. And Isaac.
Well, he gets one chapter. Genesis 26. one chapter that is devoted exclusively to him and this is the chapter that we'll be looking at today. But don't feel sorry for Isaac....
