Genesis 24
All right take your Bible and turn please to Genesis 24. We come this morning to the longest chapter in the book of Genesis. Now if you enjoy a good love story, you're going to like Genesis 24.
Now in chapter 23 we read that Sarah gets buried. In chapter 24 we read that Isaac gets married. Wedding Bells are Ringing and we're going to discover that it was God who brought these two love-birds together!
I want to show you from God's Word that God is interested in your love story and how important it is for you to bring God into it! I'm talking to some young people and single adults this morning and you need to know that God is interested in the person whom you'll marry.
