I hope you get blessed in this week's blog.  It appears last week blog showed that Jacob somehow kept getting into different issues. There is another thing to learn about his life according to the scripture this week. Remember that Yahweh was in Jacobs' life throughout. It may appear to you that Jacob's life was not something to pray for. Believe me. I understand your thought. However, are you not surprised that the same Jacob inherited Abraham's covenant?                Sometimes, we only see the surface of issue but the underneath is not feasible for us to see. In relative sense, Jacob's li

It is another week to get blessed. Last week's blog discussed the family re-union between Jacob (now called Israel) and his brother Esau. Jacob appeared to be still afraid of his brother despite the fact that all looked to be alright between the two. So, he settled in the city of Shechem of the land of Canaan contrary to the expectation of being in the city of Seir where his brother was located.                In this week, chapter 34 of the book of Genesis gave an account of a new ordeal that sprung up for Jacob through his children. You can see the sad face of Jacob in the above picture. Will he ever get out of troubles? Let us see. From verses 1 through 4, Dinah (Jacob's and Lea

Last week blog discussed the encounter that Jacob had. This encounter propelled Jacob to the next phase of his life. His name was changed to Israel. Please, read the detail of last week blog if you have not done so.                In this week, Jacob's encounter was the liberation he needed to face his brother. According to the book of Genesis chapter 33, Jacob saw Esau a far off coming with 400 hundred men. So he divided his children among his wives and maidservants. He put the children of his maidservants  in front, followed by Leah and her children before Rachel and Joseph (the only child at this time). Then, he

I hope you have learnt one or two things in last week blog. This week's blog will look into Genesis chapter 32. Jacob had bad reminiscences in Padan-Syria, especially with Laban and his family. He parted his ways from Laban and moved towards his long missed place. On his way, he saw massagers of Elohim (Angels). He realized that the place he was walking was a camp of Elohim. So, he called the place, Mahanaim (verse 1-2). Jacob sent his servants to Esau saying he was with Laban for a while. He had been blessed with many belongings which included flocks, bulls, donkeys, men-servants and maid-servants. He requested Esau to show h
