    The Bible speaks of planting or sowing discord like a farmer planting seeds. Deceit is the catalyst by which discord is sown or planted in the church.

    I. Introduction Read Genesis 29 (Psalm 101:7) No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence. That’s a very heavy penalty for something that is usually said without thinking! Most deceit has its origin in thoughtlessness and ...read more

    based on 80 ratings
     | 31,953 views

    This message deals with the consequences of our failure to trust God based on the experience of Jacob. Be Blessed!

    It is my contention that the contents of verses 15-30 conveys the conviction that Jacob had a Serious Problem With Trusting God. The basis for that conclusion is grounded on the fact that here was a man, who with his mother, had conspired, schemed and tricked both his father and brother out of the ...read more
