    The Story Of Esau And Jacob - Why It's Destructive To Hold A Grudge

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Oct 8, 2013
     | 18,214 views

    For those of us who have or maybe are holding grudges now, I hope you understand how destructive it is for you. It's impossible to love those you hold a grudge against.

    Have you ever held a grudge? I have. I was once accused of plagiarizing material I wrote for a small group study. The person who accused me wanted to fire me, but, didn't have the authority himself to do it, so he tried to diminish my character by accusing me of stealing my material. I have to ...read more

    Jacob's Deception Of Isaac Series

     | 19,670 views

    Jacob's deception of Isaac in Genesis 27:1-45 teaches us God's sovereign, redemptive will is always done, in spite of any person's opposition to it.

    Scripture Last week we began a series of sermons on "Isaac's Descendants." In our first lesson we saw that Isaac and Rebekah had twin sons, Esau and Jacob. As a young man, Esau despised his birthright and sold it to his twin brother, Jacob. Later, Jacob deceived his father, Isaac, and received the ...read more

    Part 47 in our series on Genesis. Here we see God be merciful to Esau, even though he despised the things of God.

    Left Over Blessings (Genesis Part 47) Text: Genesis 27:30-46 By: Ken McKinley (Read Text) Now last week; we talked about how God’s sovereignty always over-rules the will of man. If you remember; Isaac had fully intended to bless Esau, but it didn’t work out that way. God had said that Jacob ...read more

    The Greatest Blessing For Our Family

    Contributed by Robert Webb on Jun 30, 2018
     | 8,335 views

    Our children need to realize they have great potential and value. We must love our children for who they are and that is exactly the way God shows his love for us.

    I suppose every parent here today can relate to the question, at some point, what does the future hold for my child? In fact most parents worry about it more than our children do. It’s kind of like the story of the father that came home one day and found out his child had been watching TV all day ...read more

    Who Gets Your Blessing? Series

    Contributed by Brandon Vernoy on Aug 13, 2016
     | 7,498 views

    We do not obtain the blessings of God because we deserve them. We obtain them because He loves us and it brings Him glory.

    Who Gets Your Blessing? One of the most dramatically unqualified biblical heroes I can think of is Jacob. He was a liar, a con, a trickster, a fraud. He spent much of his life haunted by bad decisions and exiled to the chaos of self-inflicted consequences. And yet God called him, chose him, and ...read more

    A Father’s Blessing

     | 16,365 views

    When these 4 ingredients are present, & practiced consistently, then our children grow up solid, secure & confident of themselves, able to go out into the world & function normally. A father's blessing is essential for a child.

    A Father’s Blessing Intro: There is a crisis in our world today. Way too many Dads are MIA. Whatever the cause (and sometimes the cause is noble), the problem is what happens to the kids who miss out on what only a Dad can offer. When Fathers are involved in their kids’ lives in a ...read more

    Say Yes To The Goat Skins Series

    This sermon will focus on the difficulty of saying no to the flesh. Even though we have rules and law, they are no match to stop us from choosing our fleshly desires.

    Background • Review Genesis 25; twins yet born completely opposite (lost/saved) • Parents show favoritism, and this will lead to a divided family. When we come to chapter 27, Isaac is around 137 and both boys are in their middle 70’s. • This sermon will focus ...read more

    Genesis Chapter Twenty-Seven Series

    Contributed by Tom Shepard on Oct 3, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,635 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Seven. 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 TWENTY-SEVEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Jacob receives the blessing of Isaac with the help of Rebekah and trickery. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 27 Jacob, clothed in the garments of Esau, is blessed by Isaac. Esau, hearing of Jacob's action, ...read more

    Isaac asked his son Esau to prepare a special dinner. Several things happened, though, that changed the family dynamic forever.

    Introduction: At the time of this incident, Isaac was considered an old man, and he was afraid he was going to die soon. He asked Esau, his oldest son, to prepare him some food from game Esau would hunt in the fields. The rest of this story is a classic of deceit, in that a family was torn apart ...read more

    Jacob: Manipulando Un Derecho De Nacimiento Series

     | 445 views

    Normalmente, la primogenitura corresponde al hijo primogénito, es decir, al hermano de Jacob, Esaú. Ahora veremos cómo Jacob manipuló la primogenitura para obtener la bendición.

    Creo que muchos de nosotros nos podemos identificar con Jacob. Tenía defectos y fallas que son debilidades muy comunes entre nosotros. No es que no nos identifiquemos con la debilidad de su padre Isaac y su abuelo Abraham, pero las formas egoístas y engañosas de Jacob son más ...read more

    Jacob-He Lost More Than He Gained Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Feb 3, 2022
     | 3,549 views

    Rebekah, mother of Esau and Jacob, wanted Jacob to have the paternal blessing which Isaac was going to bestow on Esau. She developed a plan for Jacob to get it--and they went through with it. Results? Bad!

    Introduction: Jacob had already purchased Esau’s birthright (some might say, swindled Esau out of it) some years before this event took place. Now, with his mother Rebekah’s help, he was about to swindle his father, Isaac, out of Esau’s blessing. Jacob got the blessing, but he lost more than ever ...read more

    Trust and obey the Lord, and let Him do for you what you could never do for yourself.

    Richard Blake and his wife, from San Luis, California, were at a wedding where their neighbor’s son, Robert, was one of the ushers. He seemed young to be an usher at a wedding, but a veteran usher gave him some quick pointers. He instructed Robert to ask the person he was escorting, “Are you a ...read more

    In case you have not figured it out, my message today is not actually: Disobey Your Mother. Not completely anyway. I would like to leave you with a principle from this passage that I believe is a needed word for our day: Be careful to whom you listen and to whom you obey.

    DISOBEY YOUR MOTHER GENESIS 27:1-45 #mothersday2022 INTRODUCTION Today is Mother’s Day which is a Sunday where ever since 1907 folks gather and focus on the importance and impact of mothers.

    Jacob: Manipulating A Birthright Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 5, 2022
     | 4,310 views

    Normally the birthright goes to the firstborn son. That would be Jacob’s brother Esau. Now we will look at how Jacob manipulated the birthright for the blessing. By custom Esau was to inherit the blessings of Abraham and Isaac. This fellow Jacob stole Esau’s birthright and blessing.

    Jacob: Manipulating a birthright Genesis 25:19-34 I think many of us will be able to relate to Jacob. He had faults and failings that are very common weaknesses we have. It’s not that we do not relate to the weakness of his father Isaac and his grandfather Abraham, but Jacobs selfish and ...read more
