    Returning To Our Proper Place In God Series

    We continue our walk with Jacob as he meets Esau. Jacob shows us a great deal of wise stewardship in this chapter. Jacob follows through and returns home in obedience to God.

    Returning to Our Proper Place in God Jacob’s Reunion with Esau Jacob’s Return in obedience to God’s Promised Land I noticed in the Bristol Bay Times this week that a serviceman and his family were able to visit Dillingham. Imagine he had been gone 13 years. I know that when Gloria and I leave ...read more

    Even as Jacob and Esau meet, it seems like Esau is the more righteous of the two brothers. However, it is Jacob whom God has chosen.

    Genesis 33 January 24, 2004 One of the big questions that the book of Genesis has answered has been, "Where do we come from?" For the Israelites sitting around Mount Sinai this has been pretty heady stuff. The creation of the world, the deliverance through the flood and the story of the ...read more

    When Parental Guidance Slumps To Parental Negligence

    This is a strong call to the parents in the home who are raising children. I used this as a baby dedication message.

    Genesis 33:17-20 KJV And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

    Gracious Lost People Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,178 views

    As Christians, we must learn to appreciate and enjoy the image of God in others – even those who do not know Jesus Christ. Sometimes, lost people can be wonderful -- and may be more gracious than some who know the Lord.

    Gracious Lost People (Genesis 33:1-20) 1. Lots of things in life are relative. 2. Do you know what the snail said as it road on the back of a tortoise? Wheeeee! 3. When we talk about people, we are usually talking in relative terms. In guys eyes, "all of sinned and fall short of the glory of ...read more

    The Power Of Forgiveness Series

    Contributed by Rick Hope on Feb 20, 2006
    based on 118 ratings
     | 96,056 views

    Many times, the one thing that paralyzes us is the unwillingness to seek forgiveness or the bitter spirit that won’t grant it to someone else.

    We are a funny group of people. We are sue happy. We sue for everything from a hot cup of coffee to hurt feelings. Forgiveness has become a lost art. Now everything is about revenge, getting even, making someone pay. Sadly enough, it’s drifted from the secular world into churches today. When we ...read more

    God can restore broken relationships with other people... and himself.

    I want us to take a brief walk through this chapter in Genesis 33. Of course, in context it follows the three days covered in Genesis 32 in which Jacob finds out his brother is coming to meet him with 400 men. The rest of that chapter is wrapped up in Jacob’s human attempts and frailties to undo ...read more

    God has called us to take the initiative in bringing reconciliation.

    How Is Your View From the Bridge? Text: Gen. 33:1-20 Introduction 1. Read Gen. 33:1-20 2. Illustration: God’s love is like a bridge that makes reconciliation possible. If you take away the bridge, the separation remains. George Herbert said, “He who cannot forgive others breaks the bridge ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 33 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 16, 2011

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. þ Lë 4 ° T Ð ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ 6¬ 8" " " &" &" &" &" à=Ð/ Ð 8 &" ...read more

    What do we think of when we think of "The Altar?" For some it brings back sweet memories from our childhood. For others just confusion and misunderstandings. We cannot experience a move of God without The Altar! Today, let's take a quick look at the subject of "The Altar."

    Isaiah 55:6-7 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

    Psalms 27, 37, And 84 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 7, 2020

    Passages in different locations are often interconnected in such a way that one avenue of thought springs from another. Although these psalms were not written with the intent that they be interconnected by us today, they collectively express a message relevant today.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Thirty-Three. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Jacob is reunited with Esau. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 33 The friendly meeting of Jacob and Esau. Esau at first refuses, but, being urged, accepts his brother's present. Esau returns to Seir. Jacob ...read more

    Let me ask you 3 questions to begin today: 1) Quickly think of someone who is hard to forgive? Do you have them in mind? Is it one of your family members? 2) What makes it hard for you to forgive them? 3) Would you like to become more forgiving?

    Don’t compromise in your commitment to the Lord nor with the godless culture that surrounds you, lest you be consumed by it.

    There is an old Russian parable about a hunter who came to a clearing and encountered a bear. The hunter raised his rifle to shoot when the bear said, “Wait, what do you want?” The hunter replied, “A fur coat.” “That’s reasonable,” answered the bear. “I want a full stomach.

    Jacob-Hello And Good Bye, Brother Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 22, 2022
     | 2,899 views

    Jacob had left home and a very angry brother 20 years earlier. Now his brother, Esau, was coming to meet Jacob with 400 armed soldiers. Jacob was probably expecting a final (!) good bye but not the "hello!' Esau gave him!

    Introduction: Jacob had left his home and family about 20 years before this event. Esau, his twin brother, was so upset at the time that he wanted to kill Jacob! Now that Jacob was returning to his home area, he sent messengers to Esau. The reply? “Esau is coming to meet you, and he’s bringing 400 ...read more
