    So many people, when they come to the valleys of life, set up camp and plan on staying there or they will do little to get out it. God never intends for us to stay in these valleys but to learn from them and move on.

    Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Oct 14, 2010
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,051 views

    There are three things in the life of Isaac which are symbolic of the conditions for a believer who desires to have spiritual success.

    Intro: Isaac was the son of a famous father (Abraham) and the father of a famous son (Jacob, who was Israel). But being the son of Abraham and the father of Jacob was NOT the key to his spiritual success. Isaac himself lived a life of obedience and faith in God. Read Gen. 26:25. We find 3 things ...read more

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 15, 2011
