The Rare Tribute of Praise
How often do you take the time out to tell someone you love, that you love them? Some people cringe at the thought! But that seems to be the general rule of human nature – in todays passage 10 men were healed, but only one came back to give praise and thanks to God.

THE SERVANT'S PRAYER

Genesis 24:10-49 
Key Verse: 24:12

1. The servant's prayer (10-27).
When the servant arrived in Haran, it was time for the women to go out to draw water. Before anything else, the servant kneeled down in prayer and depended on God. His prayer revealed his desire to please God and to carry out God's will in Isaac's life. Before he had finished praying, Rebekah appeared. When the servant requested a little water, she generously offered to water his ten thirsty camels. The servant carefully watched to see if this was the Lord's answer to his prayer. When she informed him that she was Abraham's relative, the servant worshiped the Lord and thanked God who gave him success in his mission.

2. The servant's request (28-49).
Rebekah's family prepared a feast, but the servant refused further hospitality until he made his request. He explained everything - revealing God's sovereignty in leading him to Rebekah to be Isaac's wife. Now he requested their kindness and faithfulness to Abraham by consenting to the marriage.

Prayer: Lord, help me to put my requests before you and follow your leading.

One Word: God leads us when we pray
