Worship Service: Genesis 26 (The Village Chapel - 07/25/2021)

Between Promise and Provision: Following God in the Middle Times

Between the story of Abraham and the story of Jacob (who later becomes Israel) lies the story of Isaac, the promised son of Abraham. Isaac faces a famine, but chooses to faithfully follow where God leads him. This chapter reminds us that we are created to reflect God’s image, asks us whose image we are reflecting, and encourages us to faithfully follow God as he leads us between Promise and Provision!

(8:20) Call to Worship: My Help Comes From The Lord

I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, he who keeps Israel
Will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your shade on your right hand.
The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all evil;
He will keep your life.
The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in
From this time forth and forevermore.
