Genesis 26:18 He reopened the wells his father had dug, which the Philistines had filled in after Abraham's death..... Isaac's servants also dug in the Gerar Valley and discovered a well of fresh water.
I wonder if some of your wells have been blocked up by our enemy the devil just like Isaac's were blocked up by the Philistine enemy? Sometimes our lifelines of church, and bible reading, or daily time with the Lord can become clogged up with all the pressures of life, by illness or distresses of many kinds. They become clogged with negative thinking, fearful thoughts from different sources, hurtful words, or maybe self isolation due to co-vid.
If that has happened to you then let the Lord encourage you to dig those wells of supply out again and let His living water flow to you once more. Isaiah 12:3 With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. Another version says With great joy, you people will get water from the well of victory.
God doesn't want us all clogged up! He wants us to be able to draw fresh water from Him every single day because they are wells of salvation which one commentary says brings with it confidence, strength, refreshment, hope and joy. I think we all want some of that life giving water don't you?
God's well of salvation is for daily consumption, because our need of fresh supply is also daily. So let's come to the Lord afresh this week and enter His presence with thanksgiving and praise and humbly ask for His life giving water to flood our souls yet again as we turn our eyes back to Jesus and His victory for us on the cross, as we read His word and spend time with Him.
It's time to get digging! Have a blessed week.😊
