Sarah has passed away. Isaac is grown up. Abraham
is getting older and older. It is time for Isaac to get a wife…So Abraham sent
his most trustworthy servant Eliezer back to his relatives to find Isaac a good godly life-partner.
She must definitely not be taken from among unbelievers in Yahweh. (V 1-9)
The most loyal and faithful servant prepared and organized
his trip to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor very well. He does not forget
to pray to God about this most important venture of faith. And God would answer
the prayer very promptly. Everything went well. The servant demonstrated wisdom,
tact, self-control, courtesy, respectfulness, discipline, seriousness, and
faith in his dealing with the family of the chosen bride Rebekah. (V 10-61).
The whole process was most successful. God is amazing!
Rebekah and Isaac would become the God-chosen
couple who will further the promise of God to Abraham to become the Father of
many descendants and a blessing to all nations. (V 62-67)
Let us be always most loyal and faithful
unto Our God who directs our path and answers our prayers. He does grant us the
desires of our hearts like He did to Abraham, Isaac, and the loyal servant Eliezer through
picking the most beautiful kind-hearted Rebekah as bride to Abraham’s miraculously-born
son.
