BIRTHING FORTH YOUR REHOBOTH

 


We all have a place in our hearts called “there.”  Our place called “there” is a place of rest, a place of promise, a place of freedom, a place of purpose and a place of destiny fulfilment. We may have gone through several struggles in life but we are looking up for a place where God has promised to do us good; where His precious promises are birthed forth. Where dreams and visions come true! We are assured by the force of the Word of God that what He promised, He is well able to do because God is not a man that will lie nor son of man that will repent [Numbers 23:19].

However the truth of the matter is that when you go through the valley of the shadow of death before your season of birthing forth, things that are happening in the natural seems to be quite the opposite of the promises that God has made.

Especially when the demonic controlling forces or kingdom of darkness seem to be contending with us in battle. However we do have an assurance in God who is expecting us not to give up despite the contentions and the strivings for we KNOW that victory is assured if we faint not. God will have us to switch from battling physically to battling in the realm of the spirit and contend against the forces of darkness and their agents that are militating against our breaking forth into the land of promise or that place called ‘there”.

“Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon: behold, I have GIVEN into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land: begin to POSSESS it, and CONTEND with him in battle” Deut. 2:24 

Contending here means fight against him and begin to take possession of his country or land. It is prepare to take possession by provoking him to war. God is simply saying “I now give you his land. So attack and take it”!  This means do not just be on the defensive, be on the offenses! Attack the enemy! You are well able to win!

There is a power in you… treasures in earthen vessel… that makes the rulers of darkness to tremble. That the excellence of POWER at work in you can be of God and not of man [2 Cor. 4:7]

For Isaac and Rebekah that place called “there” was the Promised Land.  After the death of Abraham, a famine spread throughout the land, forcing Isaac and Rebekah to move to Gerar.  This must have been quite frustrating for Isaac and Rebekah considering that the land of Canaan had been promised through Abraham to Isaac, yet due to a famine Isaac was instructed to leave from that place.

There are precious promises made unto us in order to enter into our Promised Land but famine and contentious enemies are militating against our settling down there.

During their sojourn in Gerar, Isaac and Rebekah faced great struggles and antagonism despite the eventual prosperity.   Isaac and Rebekah seemed to be surrounded by enemies because the Philistines envied and hated him until they sent him out of their country.  Every time Isaac tried to take a step forward for his family, opposition pushed him two steps backwards.  Life was so difficult for Isaac and Rebekah in Gerar that whenever Isaac tried to provide for his family by establishing wells to sustain his household, the Philistines came along and commandeered the wells, claiming the water for themselves.

“So Isaac moved away from there and encamped in the Valley of Gerar, where he settled. 18 Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died, and he gave them the same names his father had given them. Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water there. 20 But the herders of Gerar quarreled with those of Isaac and said, “The water is ours!” So he named the well Esek, because they disputed with him. 21 Then they dug another well, but they quarreled over that one also; so he named it Sitnah. 22 He moved on from there and dug another well, and no one quarreled over it. He named it REHOBOTH, saying, “Now the Lord has given us room and we will flourish in the land.” Genesis 26:17-22

The first mention of Rehoboth in the bible is with regard to a well that Isaac and his servants dug in the Valley of Gerar [Genesis 26:22]. It is the well that Isaac and his servants dug after they had earlier dug some, which the people of Gerar, who were Philistines, took from them.

The first thing that I will like to say is that we must come against evil repetitious cycles. There was famine in the time of Abraham and there was famine also in the time of the son Isaac. Sarah the mother of Isaac was barren and Rebekah the wife of Isaac was barren also [Gen. 25:21].

Demonic powers and authorities always try to stop the manifestations of the promises of God generationally but we must stand by faith and contend against the enemy in spiritual battle. We must fight the good fight of faith knowing that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of stronghold. We must cut off by the power of the Holy Ghost from evil repetitious cycles in the mighty name of Jesus.

The second thing I will like to say is that because you got a breakthrough in one area does not men Satan and demonic warlords will not attack you in another. What does it profit a man who is very rich but very sick with heart issues or do not have a child because the wife is barren. After all is said and done that Isaac reaped a hundred fold and was prosperous and fruitful, the powers of darkness still went ahead to fight against him in getting water for his farm land and his sheep. That is why we must stand or contend against demonic powers in spiritual battle until total victory is ensured.

The Philistines began their hostility against Isaac when they blocked all the wells which the servants of his father, Abraham, had dug in Abraham’s days; they had filled them with earth (Genesis 26:14-15). The enemy will always try to outsmart you by disrupting all things that could manifest your blessings in the land of the living.

It was Isaac’s by right of inheritance to possess the land and the well which originally belong to his father Abraham anyhow but the herd men of Gerar strove and disputed with him and called the place Esek. The man was trying to establish his destiny but powers of darkness are bent on preventing him from having his ancestral properties which God gave to his father and they are his by inheritance. Because it is yours by virtue of inheritance does not mean it will fall upon your lap like ripe pawpaw falling from the tree. You will contend in battle against the wiles of Satan!

Functional well with water is a sign of blessing in a desert place like this. The Philistines seeking to limit the advancement or the proliferation of Abraham and his descendants stopped up the wells not minding the terrible consequence of not having water from these wells also. Can you imagine, Philistines were hurting themselves just because they want to stop the blessings that flow to Isaac! They were cruelly saying we will deny ourselves water of life because we do not want you to have it. That is insane!

It also seem to me that we do not know the extent that the enemy will go to in order to totally cripple our advancement in life and hinder coming into the blessedness that God has ordained for our lives. However they cannot stop the blessings that God has pronounced on a blessed man, unless we give up or let them!

“Sojourn in this land, and I WILL BE WITH YOU, AND WILL BLESS YOU; for unto you, and unto your seed, I WILL GIVE ALL these countries, and I WILL PERFORM the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; And I will make thy seed to MULTIPLY as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed ALL these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be BLESSED; Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws” Gen. 26:3-5 

First Abimelech, the king of Gerar told Isaac to go away because he was much mightier than his people. Actually, they were jealous of his amazing prosperity in the midst of famine (Genesis 26:12-14).  Jealousy infuses demonic mindset into the lives of people that are ready to extinguish the blessings that are supposed to come to the blessed children of God.

But it was not Isaac’s fault that he was successful. God had told him not to go down to Egypt because of the famine, but stay in the land. He was led different from how his father Abraham was led, God said do not go down to Egypt and I will bless you. And he obeyed God and stayed back in Gerar [Genesis 26:2-6]. Many times the way God will lead you will be different from the way He led others even the way your father was led, simply obey and you shall be blessed.

“If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword for the mouth of the LORD has spoken” Isaiah 1:19-20 NKJV

So Isaac was reaping the reward of obeying God. Unfortunately, many people want the fruit of obedience without sowing the seed of obedience!

“If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures” Job 36:11 

When the enemy come against you like he did with Isaac, he will have conflicts against you over what is supposed to be rightfully yours.

“And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide…” Gen. 24:63 

But Isaac was a meditator in the word of God and so He knew that all the promises of God shall come to pass and that if God say cultivate your farm in the time of famine he is very well able to bring mist to water the land from the depth of the earth and God will eventually give you a bumper harvest according to His promise.

“But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground” Gen. 2:6 

God provided mist as water just as he did in the very beginning when there was no rain yet. Faith was developed in Isaac because he understood God did it before and He will do it again and he had a bumper harvest.

“That year Isaac’s crops were tremendous! He harvested a hundred times more grain than he planted, FOR THE LORD BLESSED HIM. He became a rich man, and his wealth only CONTINUED TO GROW. He acquired large flocks of sheep and goats, great herds of cattle, and many servants. Soon the Philistines became jealous of him, and they filled up all of Isaac’s wells with earth. These were the wells that had been dug by the servants of his father, Abraham” Genesis 26:12-15 NLT 

“Isaac became rich. He gathered more and more wealth until he became a very rich man” Gen. 26:13 ERV

“The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous” Gen. 26:13 NKJV

Isaac stayed in the land of Gerar and sowed in that land. Even when there is famine you must sow according to the rites of tithes, offering and seeds so that the heaven above you can open up unto you and you reap a bountiful harvest. Such sowing keeps the heaven open above you and rebuke the devourer for your sake.

I have come to tell you that no matter the opposition you face, if you set your face like a flint and choose to be on the Lord’s side, you will laugh last. God will make a way where there seem to be no way. For your sake, God will do something NEW and something GREAT! 

Did you see how dangerous jealousy is?  They filled up the wells with earth or dirt. So the wells were neither useful to Isaac nor to them. That is WICKEDNESS. The enemy will try to fill up your well of blessing, joy, prosperity, etc. When God’s favor come upon you, some people will begin to reject you or be jealous of you. People will try to stop the source of your wealth. People will throw dirts on you, they will try to criticize, talk about you, bad mouth you …

SHAKE IT OFF …

“And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm…” Act 28:5 

It is what God says about you that matters!

God says you are blessed and empowered to prosper!

Wealth and riches will be in your house!

I will bless you beyond your wildest dream!

Look at the enemy and say to them … I have been chosen for a time like this to excel and be blessed!

Even when they stopped up your well you will not give up. Because God is still on the Throne, it is well!

Water was a big issue in Palestine where this event took place.  Water was scarce because there was little rain most part of the year in this part of the world, minus the fact that there was FAMINE in the land. Therefore, wells and cisterns were very important. It would have been better if they had taken possession of the wells and used them. Well-digging is a tedious job. But these Philistines played the SPOILER.

No enemy will spoil the work of your hands in Jesus’ name. The devourer shall not devour you, your family, your business, etc. The cutting locusts, the swarming locusts, the hopping locusts, and the stripping locusts shall not destroy the work of your hands (Joel 1:4).

So the Philistines were envious of Isaac and their king sent him away.

From this account, Isaac’ servants dug wells three times, but there were conflicts over water rights.

“And Isaac DEPARTED FROM THERE, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and lived there” Gen. 26:17 

YOU GOT TO LEARN HOW TO RELOCATE AND REDIG

NO NEED TO ARGUE OR QUARREL WITH THEM …

MOVE ON TO ANOTHER PLACE …

RELOCATE AND REDIG … KEEP ON DIGGING …

THERE IS PROFIT IN LABOR … SOON YOU WILL FIND LIVING WATER!

NEVER GIVE UP!

God’s grace and anointing is upon your life, keep on digging! God is ready to bless you more and more!

However, Isaac’s servants also dug a new well. Because the local herdsmen claimed its ownership, Isaac named it Esek, which means argument, quarrel, strife or contention [people will laugh at you and backstab or talk bad against you]. There was also a dispute over the next well they dug, and Isaac named it Sitnah, which means hostility, harass, complain, CONFRONT, oppose and contend or enmity. This kind of loss could be discouraging.

How can someone be laboring and some people are robbing him of his reward? That is wickedness! I have come to encourage anyone experiencing such a thing never give up.

God is the God of justice. He doesn’t approve of the subversion of anyone’s rights. Lamentation 3:35-36 says, “To turn aside the justice due a man before the face of the Most High, or subvert a man in his cause — The Lord does not approve” (New King James Version).

ISAAC DID NOT FIGHT OR QUARREL over the well because he knew he is blessed of the Lord and there will eventually be room made for him according to the promise of God that never fail. Abraham had educated him in all he went through until the Word of the Lord concerning birthing forth Isaac came to pass, so he hoped in the Lord, did not stagger before the Lord through unbelief and it was counted unto him as righteousness.

GOD’S PROMISES ALWAYS COME TO PASS! GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO THOSE WHO KNOW SURELY, SLOWLY BUT STEADFASTLY GOD WILL COME THROUGH FOR THEM!

Isaac and his servants did not give up. No matter what the enemy do against you, your family, your welfare, your business, your finances, etc. NEVER GIVE UP!

I know it’s not easy, but never give up.

KEEP ON DIGGING! Do not stop digging! You are at the point of breaking forth on all sides.

It is the point that heaven cried “Lift up your head O ye gates and be lifted up ye everlasting doors and the king of glory shall come in, who is the king of glory, He is the Lord strong and mighty” [Psalms 24]. God will soon come through for you!

You must have a level of persistence! Go find you another stopped well and redig. Keep on digging, don’t quit! You will soon find water! God is just allowing you to go through all the diggings to prepare you for the Promised Land! Where you will get settled. And then no weapon fashioned against you shall prosper. Your name is on Rehoboth, they cannot stop you again! You have entered into your wealthy place!

God is your very present help in the time of need. Hear what Apostle Paul said…

“That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. For our present troubles are quite small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last forever” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NLT

WELCOME TPO REHOBOTH

After digging wells, which they were dispossessed of, Isaac’s servants went on to dig another well, which was not taken from them. They named it Rehoboth which means “God has made room for me or I have gotten out of the narrow places and gotten into the broad places.”

Rehoboth also means “open space” [NLT]. God made him to be fruitful, impactful and access the room where his blessings are stored. God gave room to do all that we have not been able to do before now because of strive and contention

“Isaac said, “AT LAST the LORD has created enough space for us to prosper in this land” Genesis 26:22 NLT

I don’t know what losses you’ve incurred in the past or the failures you’ve experienced. I don’t know how many times you’ve tried and have been defeated. God will create broad places, for you to prosper. The enemy will not displace you forever. Their reign over you is being terminated right now in the Mighty name of Jesus. God is set to make a way where there seem to be no way.

Looking at your previous experiences, you may be wondering if you will ever be able to achieve anything that will last. But God, who changed the story of Isaac and didn’t allow his labor to be wasted permanently, will intervene in your case and reward your labor. He will compensate you. God will give you room to marry, room to prosper, room to be healed, room to be delivered…

God is giving room and opportunity to expand on all sides…

There shall be great profit in all that you lay your hands to do from now on!

“But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!” 2 Chronicles 15:7 NKJV

Weep no more; the LORD shall reward you; you’ll dig another well, which nobody shall take from you.  The enemy will not be able to limit anymore the scope of what you can do…

God has open the flood gates… Your blessings shall begin to flow down! THE STORM IS OVER NOW!

“Thus says the LORD: ‘Refrain your voice from weeping, And your eyes from tears; For your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD” Jeremiah 31:16a NKJV

Rehoboth also means “make room that will cause for you to be successful” (New Century Version).

“Isaac said, “Now the LORD has made room for us, and we will be successful in this land” (Genesis 26:22 New Century Version).

Where you’re currently laboring, you’ll be successful in Jesus’ name. In your business, academics, on your job, in your ministry and other concerns, you will be successful. God will make enough room for you to be fruitful. It doesn’t matter the success others have made, the clients or customers they have, or the market share they control, God will make enough room for you to succeed also.

“And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land” Gen. 26:22 KJV

I have come to announce that your fruitful season as come. You have labored, planted, weeded and watched over what you planted and it seem like the more you tried the harder it is for what you planted to bear fruit BUT NOW that is all over. Your FRUITFUL season has come”

Remember “And God blessed them: Be fruitful…” [Gen. 1:28]. Despite all the raging war from the kingdom of darkness… God’s word is coming to pass in your life now!

BE FRUITFUL! BE PRODUCTIVE! HAVE ABUNDANCE! BE SUCCESSFUL!

The Living Bible calls the well of Rehoboth “the well of Room Enough for us at last” (Genesis 26:22).  No matter the previous failures, now AT LAST, there is room enough for you to succeed.

At last, the LORD shall restore your losses.

At last, the dream of owning your own business is coming to pass

At last, despite being denied five times, your visa to study abroad has come

At last, moving from a tenant to landlord has come to pass

AT LAST!!!

“For the LORD will RESTORE the excellence of Jacob like the excellence of Israel, for the emptier have emptied them out and ruined their vine branches” (New King James Version). Nahum 2:2

The emptier shall not empty you ANYMORE in Jesus’ name. If you’ve been emptied, God will fill you again with abundance. He did it for Job and He will do it for you. He restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friend; He gave Job twice as much as he had before [Job 42:10].

God will give you room enough to prosper and restore your previous losses. Having gone through striving and contention, you would have developed character and strength that will help you to cross from the wilderness to the Promised Land.

“When the LORD restored his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream!” Psalm 126:1 NLT

Your restoration shall happen like a dream. Watch and see! God is set to do wonders for you!

AT LAST WHAT SEEM NOT TO WANT TO BE HAS BECOME MANIFESTED

This season, you will say…

At last, I have passed that examination

At last, I am a joyful parent; my baby has come

At last, I am completely healed

At last, my miracle has manifested

At last, I am getting married

At last, I am setting up my own business

At last, I have gotten employment

At last, the dream of owning my own house has become a reality!

“AT LAST, the stone which the builder rejected has become the corner stone, it is the Lord’s doing and it is marvelous in our eyes!” Matt. 21:42

Rehoboth also means “wide-open spaces” according to Message Bible!  That also could mean that plus the availability of water in the well, Isaac had wide-open spaces for his animals to graze because Genesis 26:14 records that he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds

God will give you “plenty of space to spread out in the land” (The Message).

In other words, you’ll experience “enlargement” (Young’s Literal Translation).

“Enlarge your house; build an addition; spread out your home! For you will soon be bursting at the seams. Your descendants will take over other nations and live in their cities” Isaiah 54:2-3 NLT

God shall enlarge you this season. You will expand to the right and to the left. To the front and to the back in the Mighty name of the Lord Jesus~

While Noah was praying for Japheth, his son, he said, “May God enlarge the territory of Japheth, and may he share the prosperity of Shem; and let Canaan be his servant” Genesis 9:27 NLT

This is your season of enlargement in Jesus Mighty Name. God is making “more than enough room” for you in Jesus Mighty name.

Jabez prayed, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” 1 Chronicles 4:10 NKJV

Take note of that phrase: enlarge my territory. God granted the request of Jabez. The LORD will enlarge you, too, and cause you to prosper.

Rehoboth also means “freedom” according to Knox Translation of the bible. You shall no longer be in bondage or limited by the enemy. You shall be free.

“The LORD gives freedom to the prisoners” Psalm 146:7c NKJV

“If the Son, Jesus Christ, makes you free, you shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).

“As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, I will set your prisoners free from the waterless pit” Zechariah 9:11 NKJV

The blood of the new covenant, the blood of Jesus, does not only set you free from sin, but from the attendant consequences of sins. It cleanses you from all unrighetousness!

Rehoboth! There is freedom for you in Jesus’ name.

Isaac and his servants were free from the enemy who took over their wells by force. This time, they dug a well and there was no argument or hostility. God caused his enemy to be at peace with him. When a man’s way pleases the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him (Proverbs 16:7).

God will silence every argument against your progress. He’ll stop any hostility against your advancement.

You will prosper!

You will succeed!

You will be enlarged!

Your story will change for good!

Rehoboth was Isaac’s turning point.

In the past, the enemy, the herdsmen of Gerar, forcibly took over their wells, but never again.

Never again will the enemy take advantage of you.

Never again will the thief steal what belongs to you.

Never again will there be any argument with you over your possession.

Never again will the hostility of the enemy rob you of your labor.

This season shall be the turning point in your life. It shall be a Rehoboth for you.

You shall not build, and another person inhabit

You shall not plant, and another person eat

You shall enjoy the labor of your hands.

You shall not labor in vain.

Your children and their offspring shall be the descendants of the blessed of the LORD (Isaiah 65:22-23).

At Rehoboth, the enemy was silenced. They didn’t disturb Isaac and his servants again. Isaac knew why.

He said the LORD had made room for him and he would be fruitful.

From Rehoboth, he moved to Beersheba where, on the night he arrived, the LORD appeared to him a second time, having appeared to him in Genesis 26:2.

God said, “I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, FOR I AM WITH YOU. I will BLESS you and MULTIPLY your descendants for My servant Abraham’s sake” Genesis 26:24 NKJV

Did you see that?

Isaac became unstoppable!

He was blessed after the order of Genesis 1:28: Fruitful, Multiply, Replenish, Subdue and have dominion over every living being!

It was no longer a chain of losses but of successes.

His heavens had been opened.

I decree and declare from today…

You will operate under open heavens in Jesus’ name.

Your heavens will be permanently open.

You shall become unstoppable in life.

What happened next to Isaac? 

“So he built an altar there and called on the name of the LORD, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac’s servants dug a well” Gen. 26:25 NKJV

Did you see that again? They dug another well. Was there any argument or contention over this well? No.

His warfare was over or ended.

The LORD said to Prophet Isaiah, “Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, That her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned; For she has received from the LORD’s hand  Double for all her sins” (Isaiah 40:2 New King James Version).

I pray that this season, the LORD will bring an end to your prolonged warfare. You’ll move from argument, quarrel and contention to victory and prosperity.

 You will enjoy unhindered peace.

Your enemies shall submit to you

But Isaac’s chain of successes didn’t stop at merely digging wells that the enemy didn’t fight with him over. God caused his enemy, King Abimelech, to come from Gerar with Ahuzzath, one of his friends, and Phichol the commander of his army, to beg Isaac and make peace with him [Genesis 26:26]. 

“And Isaac said to them, Why have you come to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?’ But they said, ‘We have certainly seen that the LORD is with you. So we said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, between you and us; and let us make a covenant with you, that you will do us no harm, since we have not touched you, and since we have done nothing to you but good and have sent you away in peace. You are NOW THE BLESSED OF THE LORD” Gen. 26:27-29 NKJV

Isaac’s enemy finally acknowledged that he was blessed of the LORD. Abimelech didn’t know this when he and his people were envious or jealous of him, that he sent him away. But he had realized that the more Isaac was being pulled down, the higher he was going. He must have been hearing the news of his breakthroughs. At last, he came to make peace with Isaac.

“The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous” Proverbs 14:19

Your enemies shall bow before you in Jesus’ name.

“Your enemies shall submit to you, and you shall tread down their high places” Deut. 33:29 NKJV

That is what happens when someone has entered his Rehoboth. The season of Rest!

The enemies will admit that the battle is lost. They’ve lost, you have won and they must surrender.

“Say to God, ‘How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You” Psalms 66:3 NKJV

Your enemies shall submit to you. They shall all surrender.

After Abimelech had spoken peaceably to Isaac, Isaac made him and those who accompanied him a feast; they ate and drank. Early the following morning, Isaac and Abimelech entered into a pact of non-aggression with each other. And Isaac sent them away in peace.

It wasn’t Isaac who was afraid of being attacked; it was Abimelech. And he had to come to initiate the peace pact.

“Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker” 2 Sam. 3:1 

Like David, you will become stronger and stronger; your enemies shall become weaker and weaker.

“And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies” Psalms 105:24 

Like the Israelites, God will increase you greatly, and make you stronger than your enemies. You shall become too mighty for your enemies

The LORD shall bring you to your Rehoboth, which is the beginning of your endless breakthroughs. That’s where God prepares a table before you in the presence of your enemies, and they can do nothing, but watch you enjoy your meals! (Psalm 23:5). The season of satanic harassment is over! God will bring you to the place that your cup of blessings shall overflow; it shall run over in Jesus’ name.

CEASELESS BLESSINGS

After the peace treaty had been made and Abimelech had departed, the Bible says that, that same day, Isaac’s servants came and told him about the well which they had dug. They said to him, “We have found water.” And he called it Shebah and the city was named Beersheba (Genesis 26:32-33). Shebah means oath or seven, while Beersheba means “Well of the Oath or Well of the Seven” (perfection: God has perfected all things)

Earlier in Genesis 21, Abraham had dug a well and named it Beersheba, meaning Well of the oath, or Well of seven, because Abraham and Abimelech (not the Abimelech in Isaac’s story) swore to an oath there (verse 31).

Isaac’s servants found water again. If you’ve found water before, you’ll find water again. Your best shall not be in the past. It will continue to get better and better in Jesus Mighty Name!

The LORD shall give you NEW testimonies. What you’ve lost, you’ll recover. The blessing that the enemy has stopped will resume. Your efforts shall not be in vain. God will give you more blessings. When you think you have had enough, God will give you more.

You will enjoy overflowing blessings.

The Faith Factor

Jesus said, “Have faith in God” Mark 11:22 NKJV

In your present challenges, keep renewing your faith in God; keep doing what you’re supposed to be doing. You need your faith for victory. Faith come by hearing and believing the word of God [Romans 10:17]

“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world — our faith” 1 John 5:3-4 NKJV  

Are you born of God?

If yes, then you overcome the world!

Your faith overcome the world!

It is your sword of the spirit [Word of God in your heart] that cuts down fear, doubt, unbelief, anxiety and worry!

Have faith in God and continue to do what you are supposed to be doing. Keep looking unto Jesus. He conquered and you are more than a conqueror!

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews 12:2 NKJV

Remember what Isaac went through before he got to Rehoboth and then Beersheba. The enemy opposed him, but God brought him to his wealthy place. Maybe you also have passed through the net and affliction. Men might have ridden over your heads. Probably you have gone through fire and water. This is not your end. God will bring you into your wealthy place (Psalm 66:11-12). God will bring you to your Rehoboth. He will bring you out to a place of rich fulfillment.

David said, “He also brought me out into a broad place; He delivered me because He delighted in me” Psalm 18:19 NKJV

God will bring you into your broad places, your Rehoboth. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning [Psalm 30:5]

Your morning time has come; your joy has come. Get ready to enter your Rehoboth… God has made room for you!

 “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither the son of man that he should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?” Numbers 23:19.

I have come to say, you have gone through some battles but God has set your feet upon solid rock and made room for you.

“I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD” Psalms 40:1-3 

GOD HAS HEARD YOUR CRY

GOD HAS BROUGHT YOU OUT OF THE HORRIBLE PIT

GOD HAS ESTABLISHED YOUR GOING

GOD HAS SET YOUR FEET UPON THE ROCK

IT IS YOUR SEASON TO SING A NEW SONG
