Unplugging the Wells Part 2 of 3

Genesis
26:1 says, “And there was a famine in the land,
beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham.” This famine is
specified to be a different one than that which happened during the life of
Abraham. So
Isaac has to do something unnatural to receive something supernatural. Verse 12
says, “Then
Isaac sowedin that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold: and the
LORD blessed him. Genesis 26:14-16 “14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great
store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. 15 For all the wells which his father's
servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had
stopped them, and filled them with earth. 16 And Abimelech said
unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we. Isaac
sowed during a time of great famine. That takes faith to give when you are in
dire need. He received a hundredfold the same year. This should encourage us to
tithe and sow during times of lack and during times of blessings. Isaac was
told to leave because God had blessed him. Scripture says the Philistines envied
Isaac. So instead of working with Isaac, they worked against him. I have seen
this so much in the Church, in the the pulpit and worship team. Instead of
being bless by whom the Lord is sending to us, we fear they just might take our
positon or title from us. They just might start their own church. How sad, that
we would rather surround ourselves with mediocrity than greatness. Unfortunately,
those ministries and churches have folded or closed. I have even heard people
say to me they are called to tear down and uproot certain churches, pastors or
ministries in the name of the Lord. God has never call people to tear down or
dismantle a part of His church. There is one Church and one Body. We have got
to yield to God’s will and purpose for the Church. It is not about us, it is
about Him, and the people that we are sent to make a different in their lives. Either
we are yielded to the enemy (devil) or the Lord, there is no in between. The
Philistines had filled up the well. The wells were a source of refreshing and sustaining
life. Water was a vital necessity then and it still is today. Why would the
enemy destroy what they needed? Why do Christian
destroy what is needed in the Church today, unity in the Spirit? We need to
build lives, not more programs and building expansions. We need those wells
unplugged that living water can flow through us and affect homes, cities and
nations. The enemy was
attempting to undo what Isaac was called to do. Those wells belonged to Isaac’s
father, therefor they are a part of Isaac’s inheritance, which Philistines
(enemy) didn’t want him to have. We like
Isaac can be discouraged and disappointed doing what we believe God has called
us to do. We expect it to be easy since God says its ours, and He’s on our side.
But there is a time to fight and not give up, and there is a time to walk away.
We find ourselves laboring to receive an inheritance that’s already ours. Every
time Isaac unplugged a well, the enemy came and plugged it back up. Why? The
wells is a landmark, whoever owned the wells, owned the Land. God owns the land
and he has given us the Land as a part of our inheritance. Now
understand when I am speaking about our land, I am not referring to soil, or acreage,
I am speaking of earthen vessels! 2 Corinthians 4:7-10 says “7 But
we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may
be of God, and not of us. 8 We are troubled on every side, yet not
distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 Persecuted, but
not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 10 Always bearing about
in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be
made manifest in our body." "15For all the wells which his father's servants had digged
in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled
them with earth. 16And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art
much mightier than we. 17And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the
valley of Gerar, and dwelt there." ….To
