"Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father" (Genesis 26:18). "I rejoice at Thy Word, as one that findeth great spoil" (Psalm 119:162). "So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off" (Proverbs 24:14). "For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope" (Romans 15:4).
When
Isaac dug the wells again
Which
Abraham had dug before,
He
found the springs of water then
Were
like the spoils gained in war.
The
Lord rewards the diligence
Of
those who search His precious Word
With
comfort and with confidence
In
blessings which He has assured.
Whatever
things have been recorded
By
prophets in the days of old,
Like
hidden treasures, have rewarded
Our
hearts with truths which they foretold.
O
Lord, we thank You for the wells
That
spring forth from Your Word today
With
truth that frees us and dispels
The
darkness by the things You say.
