Share on PinterestShare on FacebookShare on Email

When God makes a promise, He can and He does do everything necessary to keep His promise. You can use the story of Isaac and Rebekah (found in Genesis 24:1-67) to perfectly illustrate this truth for your kids. Scroll down for an overview of the story—plus a FREE printable Bible lesson plan!

FREE Bible Lesson Plan - A Bride for Isaac

Isaac and Rebekah.

They have an unusual love story!

In the book of Genesis, Isaac and Rebekah’s little story is sandwiched between the life of the patriarch Abraham and the adventures of his scheming grandson Jacob.

It’s an interesting love story. But it’s easy to miss the deeper significance.

And Isaac and Rebekah’s story is far more than just a tale of romance. It is also a powerful example of how God can—and does—keep His word.

Isaac and Rebekah’s story teaches us that God keeps His promises.

God’s faithfulness to keep His promises is a simple, yet incredibly important truth. In fact, knowing & believing it can be completely life-changing!

For that reason, the seemingly “insignificant” story of Isaac and Rebekah may be one of the most important Bible lessons to teach your kids.

In this post, I’ll walk you through a simple lesson outline for Isaac and Rebekah’s story, so you can easily & effectively teach it to your kids!

Teach your kids that they can trust God, too.

Throughout Isaac and Rebekah’s story in Genesis 24, God takes action step by step to fulfill His promises.

  • First, he does lead Abraham’s servant to exactly the right woman.
  • Then, the woman says she’s willing to leave her homeland and travel to Canaan with the servant.
  • And so, finally, God provides a bride for Isaac.

As God had already said to Abraham in Genesis 18:14a (NKJV):

“Is anything too hard for the Lord?”

Apparently not!!

That’s why it’s worthwhile to teach this story.

We are human. And even though it isn’t right to doubt the Lord, we do. But this story reminds us that, step by step, God can and will do whatever is necessary to fulfill His word.

And so we can trust Him, because He keeps His promises.

So build a simple lesson around these three questions & their three answers, and you will teach your kids that God always keeps His promises. And you will show your kids, through Isaac and Rebekah’s story, that God can be trusted.
