PHANEROO~DEVOTION 6th April 2016 Apostle Grace Lubega

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 [Genesis 24:14].

LESSONS IN VIRTUE II

The story of Rebecca is that Abraham sent his servant to go get his son a wife. He was sure that the angel of his Lord would go before him to provide for Rebecca’s availability. When the servant reached the well, he told God what the woman should do as a sign.

Rebecca watered camels not because she wanted a husband but because she was aligned to a certain man’s sign that he had set before the Lord. This is the very wisdom by which people serve their occasions.

She is not watering the camels to get a man, but she is watering them because God answered a man’s prayer. Women do not get men for husbands because they know how to put on makeup, speak nice English and act. They transition from women to wives as they are exposed by God to what the men ask for as signs.

FURTHER STUDY: Genesis 24, 2 Corinthians 3:2

GOLDEN NUGGET: Women do not get men for husbands because they know how to put on makeup, speak nice English and act. They transition from women to wives as  they are exposed by God to what the men ask for as signs.

PRAYER: Lord we thank you for the wisdom to be the signs that we must be. Thank you because that even to a deeper understanding, we are not only in pursuit of signs but that we are the signs; written epistles by which men read you; we are the stars by which men find Christ. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
