Genesis 26:1-6
"The Promise Reaffirmed to Isaac"
Once again in the midst of a famine, Isaac decided to go towards Egypt, like his father did. God, however, had him stay in Canaan where He [God] reaffirmed Abraham's covenant to Isaac, making mention of the large number of nations coming from his bloodline.
What does the reaffirmation show? Could it be showing Isaac that God keeps his word and has an overarching plan in store for His people-to-be? would even go so far as to say that God was mildly, if no wholly, excited to have picked the lineage through which the savior would be traced.
Again, another reminder that God keeps His work, yet works at hisown pace.
