THE CHURCH OF
PENTECOST – 2016 BIBLE STUDY OUTLINE
WEEK 21 – SUNDAY
MORNING, MAY 22, 2016
TOPIC: THE
BLESSING OF OBEDIENCE 1
Main Text: Genesis
26:1-6; 12-14
Memory Verse: Genesis 26:6 So
Isaac stayed in Gerar.
Introduction
Obedience to God
comes with a lot of far-reaching benefits. One of the attributes of God is
that, He is all knowing, that is, He knows the end from the beginning. When He
commands us to do something, it means He is fully aware of what He wants to do
at the end. In this study, we will look at how God blessed Isaac for his
obedience to stay in Gerar. When God speaks to us concerning our finances,
marriage, job, health among other things, we must trust that He has a better
plan in place for us.
Discussion
Questions
1. Why did Isaac
plan to go to Egypt? Genesis 26:1
2. What did the
Lord tell Isaac and why? Genesis 26:3-4. Was there any challenges if he obeyed and
stayed on?
3. Why did the
Lord promise to bless Isaac? Genesis 26:5
4. How did Isaac
obey the Lord? Genesis 26:6
5. How was Isaac
blessed after obeying God? Genesis 26:12-14
6. Have you ever
been blessed because you obeyed God? Share experiences.
Conclusion
Staying in a
land plagued with famine can be very uncomfortable and challenging. Isaac
however obeyed God and stayed in Gerar. We learn that even in the famine, God
blessed Isaac so much that his crops, animals and even servants increased. The
Bible says he had so many flocks and herds and servants that the Philistines
envied him (Genesis 26:14). To receive the blessings of God, obedience is the
key.
