Title: Descendants
(S) cripture:
Genesis 36:11-12 (NLT2) The descendants of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 Timna, the concubine of Esau’s son Eliphaz, gave birth to a son named Amalek. These are the descendants of Esau’s wife Adah.
(O) bservation:
Esau’s son Eliphaz had son with his concubine, Timna, named Amalek. His descendants called the Amalekites were some of Israel’s most fierce enemies. Interesting that they came from a relative
(A) pplication:
Broken family relationships can produce some fierce rivalries. It is sad when Christian families split or are torn apart by sin. Today I thank God that our family enjoys each other. I am thankful that it is peaceful when we get together. I am confident it is our shared commitment to Jesus that makes this possible. I thank God for the gift of a family of faith.
(P) rayer:
Lord, thank you for my family and the way they each follow you. Let me continue to be an example of what it means to follow You. Amen
