GOD'S PROMISE TO JACOB

gENESIS 28:10-22

 

Key Concept:

God is present with His people, faithful to His promises, and deserving of our worship.

Genesis 25-36 depicts God's ongoing faithfulness to Abraham's descendants, seen first through his son Isaac and then through his grandson Jacob. Despite manipulative and deceitful schemes to obtain both his brother's birthright and his father's blessing, from the womb, Jacob was the one chosen by God to receive the covenant promises passed down from Abraham and Isaac. God's work in and through Jacob's life reminds us that God uses and works through sinful people and unfavorable circumstances to accomplish His will.

As you examine Genesis 28:10-22:

✞   Identify how God's promises to Jacob mirrored those He made to Abraham and Isaac.

     

✞   Consider what genuine worship of God should look like in your life.
