How to Honour God in the Ordinary | Genesis 21:22-34

Sometime after the birth of Isaac and the casting out of Ishmael, king Abimelech visited Abraham. There Abimelech acknowledged the blessing of God upon Abraham’s life and sought to make a peace treaty with Abraham, thereby enabling Abraham to serve God in the Land of Promise while protecting Abimelech’s dynasty. The two men covenanted together, and Abraham planted a tamarisk tree as a reminder of God’s covenant protection. In this study we learn that we must honour God in the ordinary activities of life by being honest, peaceable and worshipful.
