Ancestry study is a popular hobby.
Some libraries have entire sections for genealogical research.
Even a few television programs are dedicated to this pursuit.
Modern scientific advances make it possible to trace family lineage through DNA testing.
Haplotypes can help identify which people groups an individual is descended from as well as tracing each group to its continent of origin.
A popular TV show used this testing to identify the family roots of two individuals who represented opposing religions.
The host startled his Muslim guest when he shared the DNA evidence that showed the two warring people groups were descended from the same father.
The sons of Abraham were Isaac and Ishmael (1 Chronicles 1:28).
Isn’t it wonderful to know that God already has all that information?
God sees your ancestry all the way back to the beginning.
Perhaps even more comforting is that He knows each person’s future.
Prayer Suggestion: Thank You, Lord.
Nothing surprises You.

Ancestor Worship - honoring the memory of our forbearers is okay, but worshipping our ancestors or thinking that they can be some sort of mediator between us and God or some sort of god to us is clearly not biblical
