Living Proof with Beth Moore is sponsored by the friends and partners of Living Proof Ministries.

We have come here to find out what he means when he says.

If you only knew the gift of God that I would give you if you would let me.

We are going to figure that out.

And we are going to find out what is stopping up our wells.

Can I hear an amen from anybody in the house?

Music From the very top tonight, we're going to the book of Genesis.

That's the very beginning.

Go there with me, Genesis 24.

I'm going to do something a little bit frustrating because I'm not going to teach

the passage in its proper context the way it deserves to be taught. I'm going to let it show us

something that we're going to circle around the whole time we're together and then it's going

to send us elsewhere. So I'm going

here to set with you the scene for where we will then circulate. So Genesis chapter 24,

let me tell you what's happening here and you can see, this is where captions come in really,

really handy. You can see at the very beginning of it that it has the caption, Isaac and Rebecca.

This is Abraham getting really, really old, and he's starting to get worried because

Isaac is still not married, and he's wanting to make sure that Isaac is going to marry someone

from among their people so that that promise of that generation through Abraham,

that what they would have considered to be pure seed would be fulfilled and kept. So he sends

his servant back to their land and he says, go seek out a wife for my son Isaac.

I want you to pick up with me in verse 10.
