    God is the vision giver, but we have to be the vision receivers!

    A Rock, A Vision, and A Response Text: Gen. 28:10-22 Introduction 1. Read Gen. 28:10-22 2. Illustration: Sometimes small churches look at themselves and say, “Oh, we can’t do this and we can’t do that because we are too small.

    Fear Of God

    Should we fear God? Many of us have been brought up in a Christian climate where the fear of God is missing. We like to think of the nice comfortable side of God but not His fearful awesome side. Here is just a small insight into the awesomeness of God.

    Jacobs Ladder - How awesome is this place! Gen 28:10-22 Verse 17 “And he was afraid, and said, How fearful is this place! This is nothing but the house of God, and this is the gate of Heaven!” (Modern King James Version) How awesome is this place! The Fear of God came on him. The Holiness of the ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,213 views

    God has not limited His presence of activities to a building or to a calendar.

    Jacob, Abraham’s grandson, had a life-changing experience at Bethel (House of God). He had a vision of a staircase reaching into heavens with the angels of God "ascending and descending on it" (Genesis 28:12). The Bible said that he called the name of that place Bethel, "the house of God" ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,577 views

    Dreams can be a place of encounter with God. He desires to speak to us and sometimes that is the only place our will is not interfering with His voice.

    Encountering God – Part 12 – Jacob Meets God in a Dream Context: Gen 28:1-5 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him and commanded him: "Do not marry a Canaanite woman. 2 Go at once to Paddan Aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel.

    The Talented Tenth

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 16, 2009
     | 5,967 views

    The old Wshington-DuBois debate is mirrored in Jacob: his trouble was from his own foolishness as well as from others’ deceit. The way out was to receive God’s promise of greatness and to act now to offer concrete help to those coming after.

    Almost exactly a century ago, American listened to a debate between two great thinkers, two men who had unquestionable credentials, first-rate minds, and powerful pens. Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. Du Bois. In September 1895, in a speech in Atlanta, Booker Taliaferro Washington advocated ...read more

    Finding God For Yourself

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 10, 2013
     | 8,807 views

    All the way through the Old Testament we find that God does not want the godly to marry with the ungodly. And the New Testament tells Christians that they are not to be unequally yoked. For example, it says in 2 Corinthians, “Do not be unequally yoked to

    Title: Finding God for Yourself The last time we studied Jacob’s life we saw him doing one of the most despicable things a man can do. He did it at the request of his mother. You know, sometimes people excuse themselves ...read more

    We need to understand both meanings of church, and how the beauty found in a church can attract unbelievers to Christ.

    Monday of 14th Week in Course Sacrosanctum Concilium Jacob, following in the steps of his grandfather Abraham, was careful as he moved through the land of Canaan to identify special places of the divine presence.

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 28 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 16, 2011
     | 6,397 views

    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. Title: Jacob at Bethel Jesus made a reference to Jacobs ladder that we read of in chapter 28. Where was this recorded in the ...read more

    Jacob's night with a stone for a pillow teaches us that God uses loneliness and isolation to speak to us in ways that would otherwise be missed.

    I have a very special pillowcase that might tempt you to make fun of me. It is my “Where’s Waldo” pillowcase. Actually, it belonged to one of our children, but I use it as my pillowcase when I go camping in the wilderness. My wilderness gear consists of leftovers from around ...read more
