Genesis 26:23-25
"The Lord Appears to Isaac"
This passage is a fairly straightforward passage. Here we have God coming to Isaac and reaffirming the covenant He had with Abraham with Isaac. Note that in v. 24, after God has told Isaac of the blessings that will be brought to him, that all of this is due to his father. God is blessing Isaac because of the covenant made to Abraham (after all, Isaac is the son of Abraham through which God's grace would come.
Then, look at v. 25 for Isaac's response: he built an altar and worshiped God. He set the place as a reminder of the covenant which God renewed to him.
