The only ghost you need to seek after is the Holy Ghost. He will give you power for this last hour.

Jacob's name meant surplanter or deceiver. That revealed his character. He used deception, trickery, and disguise to obtain what he wanted.

It is the original trick or treat story.

He took advantage of the darkness of the life of Isaac, his dad. Isaac was blind.

He pretended to be somebody who he wasn't--Esau.

It was dangerous, but it seemed sweet for a while.

Then he fled for his life. He spent years being sorry, but yet unrepentant.

Yeah, he got the treat, but he got the trick also. The trick was on him.

Here at Peniel, Jacob wrestled with the Lord.

It started in the night but concluded at daylight.

You need to come out of the darkness and into the light of the glory of God. Leave the pretencious behind.

He got a new name---Israel = prince with God.

Jesus always spoils Halloween

Demons start crying when Jesus shows up.

Jesus is glorified when the devil is humiliated.

36 And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out. (KJV)

37 Y su fama se divulgaba por todos los lugares contiguos. (RVG04)
