Bless the Land-Genesis 26:1-34

 The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hands to. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. We ask God to bless then and the land that he has given us. That we care for it, work with it and praise him who gave us this earth as our common home. O Most High, all powerful, good Lord God, to you belong praise, glory, honor and all blessing. Genesis 26:2-5 The Lord appeared to Isaac and said, "Do not go down to Egypt, but do as I tell you. Live here as a foreigner in this land, and I will be with you and bless you. Verse reads, "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land"(2 Chronicles 7:14ESV)
