0:00.0	All of us have decisions to make.
0:10.0	Life is full of crossroads, and we need divine direction.
0:15.0	Which way do I go?
0:17.0	Join us as we study God's Word today with Scott Paul.
0:33.6	Isn't it wonderful when God answers your prayer, when God begins to lead you in a plain path?
0:43.4	We're studying the amazing story in Genesis 24 of Eli Azar, who was seeking a wife for his master's son, no less than Isaac.
0:51.2	And, oh, the entire future of the nation of Israel hung in the balance of this one man finding God's will and God's way.
0:53.0	How did he find it?
0:55.7	Better yet, how are you going to find God's will today? How are you going to know God's way. How did he find it? Better yet, how are you going to find God's will today?

1:45.1	unfold, Elie Azar's response is not to take matters into his own hands. It's not simply to announce
1:51.0	to everybody else what they're supposed to do. It is to get down on his face, to bow his head,
1:56.8	and worship the Lord. That's not just a one-time thing either. Later in the same chapter in verse 52,
