Digging Wells

Speaker: Pastor Patrick Kelley

Originally Recorded: Jun 2, 2019

Genesis 26:23-25

From there he went up to Beersheba. That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bless you and will increase the number of your descendants for the sake of my servant Abraham.” Isaac built an altar there and called on the name of the Lord. There he pitched his tent, and there his servants dug a well.

Do we stop at pitching our tent and not digging a well?

Your work, Your well (Your work, you’re well)

Focus on the Water, not the Dirt

Small disciplines done consistently lead to big results over time.

-Craig Groeschel

We dig primarily by praying.

We dig by reading His word.

We also dig by listening and obeying Him.

We dig by speaking life-giving words.

Too often we want the water without the work.

Big Idea:

When hard times in life come, it’s the well that you dug that will get you through.
