Summary
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
GENESIS 21:22-34 - At that time Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do. 23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my descendants or with my posterity, but as I have dealt kindly with you, so you will deal with me and with the land where you have sojourned.” 24 And Abraham said, “I will swear.” 25 When Abraham reproved Abimelech about a well of water that Abimelech's servants had seized, 26 Abimelech said, “I do not know who has done this thing; you did not tell me, and I have not heard of it until today.” 27 So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two men made a covenant. 28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock apart. 29 And Abimelech said to Abraham, “What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs that you have set apart?” 30 He said, “These seven ewe lambs you will take from my hand, that this may be a witness for me that I dug this well.” 31 Therefore that place was called Beersheba, because there both of them swore an oath. 32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Then Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army rose up and returned to the land of the Philistines. 33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and called there on the name of the Lord, the Everlasting God. 34 And Abraham sojourned many days in the land of the Philistines.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, friends. Welcome back. It is time for the morning mindset. You and I have an opportunity |
| 0:09.2 | right now to get our minds aligned with the Jew of God's Word over the next six minutes. |
| 0:15.1 | We can get ourselves in a place where we show up in this day in a way that brings glory |
| 0:20.0 | and honor to Jesus Christ. Are you ready? Let's go. Let's start out with this question. |
| 0:27.0 | Can do others see in you? Now, I think this kind of a question could preoccupy some of |
| 0:33.1 | us in a very unhealthy way. We're just always concerned about whether there's think of |
| 0:37.4 | us and what others are concluding about us. And that's not exactly where I'm going. |
| 0:42.9 | I want to ask us to consider what good things do others see in us? What do they see God |
| 0:48.2 | doing in our lives? And there are other things we can do to facilitate them seeing a more |
| 0:54.1 | accurate picture of who the Lord is. Let's look at our passage in Genesis chapter 21 verses 22 |
| 1:00.8 | through 34. It says at that time, a bit more like, and five call the commander of his army said |
| 1:07.2 | to Abraham, God is with you in all that you do. Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you |
| 1:14.2 | will not deal falsely with me or with my descendants or with my posterity, but as I've dealt kindly |
| 1:20.7 | with you, so you will deal with me and with a land where you had sojourned. And Abraham said, |
| 1:27.2 | I will swear. When Abraham approved of him like about a well of water that a Benelek |
| 1:32.4 | servant had seized, a Benelek said, I do not know who has done this thing. You did not tell me, |
| 1:38.0 | now I'm not heard of it until today. So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to a Benelek, |
| 1:43.9 | and a two men made a covenant. Abraham said, seven you lambs of the flock apart, |
| 1:49.7 | and a Benelek said to Abraham, what is the meaning of these seven you lambs that you've set apart? |
| 1:55.2 | He said, these seven you lambs, you will take from my hand, that this may be a witness for me that |
| 2:00.9 | I dug this well. Therefore, that place was called Beersheba, because they are both of them swore |
