Isaac Dug Again

Genesis 26:18  Isaac dug again the wells which were dug in the days of his father Abraham but had been clogged up by the Philistines after Abraham's death. 


Abraham had dug many wells, but after he died, the Philistines filled them with dirt. So his son Isaac dug those wells again. Don't be surprised when the enemy attempts to stop up what God has given you. The thief comes to steal and kill and to destroy but Jesus has come that we might have life and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

Are you up for the fight? Are you willing to dig out what the devil has tried to stop up? These wells were their source of life. They would provide water for their crops and their ability to live on the land. Without water, there was no future of life in this place.

What has the enemy tried to take from you? Have you experience a lost? Have you lost your joy, your peace, your vision, and your get up and go? "Where you are does not define where you're going." (TD Jakes) Isaac was not willing to sit by and give in to defeat. He digs out the dirt that the enemy has placed in his wells.

Friend, divorce is not the end of the world, you may have been decimated in your family life, you may have lost your health, you may have just lost your job, you may have just lost the ministry that God gave you.

Who said life is over when your wells have been stopped up? God is more than able to give you life beyond your lost. Who says the enemy has the last action towards you?

Isaac moved from there and dug another well. (22) There will come a time that we have to move forward and dig another well. "What the enemy meant for evil, God can turn it for good." (Genesis 50:20)

I have learned that life is not over after a great lost. It won't do you any good to crawl up in a cave and give up. The answer is not to live in depression and accept defeat as your fate in life.

Claim today, "Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof, and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit." (Eccl 7:8)
"And we know that all things work together for the good to them that love God and who are called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)
Get up and dig again, it's not over till God says it's over.
