THE BLESSING OF GOD IS NOT GEOGRAPHICAL LIMITED
DAILY DEVOTION
Today’s Bible Reading: Genesis 25: 27 – 34, Genesis 26 – 27, Genesis 28: 1 – 5
THE BLESSING OF GOD IS NOT GEOGRAPHICAL LIMITED
Genesis 26:2 NKJV [2] Then the Lord appeared to him and said: “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you.
Isaac found himself in a situation similar to that of his father Abraham (Genesis 12), a famine in the land. However, the solution God gave to Abraham was not the same as the one He gave to Isaac. To Abraham, God said to go to Egypt; but to Isaac, He said to stay in the land.
What is the lesson? God deals with each of us uniquely according to His divine purpose. You may be tempted to go abroad because everyone else is going there, but is it God’s will for you personally to go? It will work for those whom the Lord has destined to be there, but for you, it could become a frustrating journey if you take yourself where God hasn’t sent you.
There are people God has destined to prosper overseas, and there are also those He has positioned to do well right where they are. The Bible says: Genesis 26:12 (NKJV) “Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him.”
The blessing of God is not tied to a specific geographical location. Therefore, seek to be where God wants you to be. Being positioned and aligned in God is far better than pursuing worldly speed or ambition.
