Mankind is subject to both trials and tribulations. A trial is a challenge to our faith. These tests can lead us into the temptation to sin if we are not careful.

Pertinent to today and the conflict in the Middle East are the wells and land that Isaac had from back in his time. Isaac trusted in the agreements he made with the surrounding area’s leader. Yet, he was forced to go and had to re-dig the wells of Abraham. The people in the area strove with Isaac over his land. He had become powerful and his neighbors envied him.

Today, modern Israel sits on land that was given to them by their fathers. Yet, their neighbors keep claiming that the land is theirs. God gave the land to the Israelites, but the people in the area have continued from the time of Isaac to today striving and desiring that land. Listen to Brother Goodwin detail the similarities between what Isaac did in his day and what the country of Israel is doing today in regards to the conflict in the Middle East.
