A TIP TO ENHANCING YOUR SUPERNATURAL EXPERIENCE EVERY DAY
Genesis 24:40 is one of the scriptures I pray every
morning. It gets me to expect the Lord to interact with me in a supernatural
way every day, and He does.
The context of this scripture is when Abraham wanted his servant
to go back to Abraham’s homeland to find a wife for his son, Isaac. Abraham was
sending his best servant, along with other servants, and camels loaded with
riches for the dowry. It was well known that there were bandits along the route,
and it could be a very dangerous trip.
We never know what a day can bring, but there’s a great
thing God teaches us early on in the Bible, in Genesis 24:40. It’s a very
important life-enriching key God wants us to believe and trust in.
Abraham’s servant arrives safely in Abraham’s homeland
and tells the story of what Abraham told him before he left: “And he said unto
me, ‘The Lord, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and
prosper thy way’” (v. 24:40a).
We have angels available to us, too. And we have “Christ
in us,” as it says in Colossians 1:27. God sent an angel ahead of the servant
to “prosper” his way—no bandits stealing from him, no major injuries, but
instead, a good and successful journey. Can you see why I pray this scripture
every morning, for every day?!
But there’s another part of this scripture that is
equally important to having a great journey. The second half says: “and thou
shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father’s house’” (v.
24:40b). The servant did find the perfect wife for Isaac. Not only was the
journey good, but he reached his Godly destination! Isn’t that what our hearts
desire from our life experience every day—to reach our Godly destinations?
What the Almighty God made available to Abraham’s
servant, is what he makes available to us today. God put this in the first book
of the Bible for a reason, and He has not changed His mind about it one bit!
Here are just two incidents that happened this week,
illustrating this important key of praying Gen. 24:40 at the start of our day:
Wednesday of last week, we were delayed for just a few
minutes in getting out of the house at our usual time. As it turns out, there was a huge accident at
a busy corner near our house—three police cars, a fire engine, and the EMTs lifting
someone into the ambulance. Had we been at that corner any sooner, we would
have been in that accident!
Yesterday we went to our favorite grocery store. Our
friend Stella has been promoted to a higher position in a different store, and when
we didn’t see her on what we thought was her last day earlier this week, we
were super disappointed. So yesterday,
when we went, we were kind of down in the dumps about Stella not being there
anymore. But then, out she came, and it happened that the Lord got us there
only five minutes before she was leaving the store for good! So, we got to
exchange numbers and say our goodbyes.
How does it happen that we were minutes from being in an
accident, and got to see our friend in the few minutes before she would be
gone?
I could give you several other incidents from this past
week that illustrate this important key, but I’m sure you can think of
wonderful things that you have seen in your own lives, as well. If you want to start
seeing even more, I encourage you to start praying this scripture at the
beginning of your day, and let me know what happens.
“And he said unto me, ‘The Lord, before whom I walk,
will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way [and get me to my Godly
destinations] (my add)’” (Gen. 24:40).
Enjoy your journeys and successful outcomes this week.
Love, Carolyn
