“And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest:”
At that time Abimelech and his army commander Phicol come to Abraham and say that God is with him in everything he does. The recognition of Abimelech — who has experienced both God's protection of Abraham and God's discipline — is the testimony of an outside observer. Matthew 5:16 calls for letting your light shine before others so they may see your good works and glorify your Father. The application: the most compelling testimony to God's presence in your life is the external recognition by those who observe it.
