    verse-by-verse

    Last week we saw how the Lord appeared to Jacob in a dream. It was an amazing dream that showed how God cares for man and has made a way for him to get to God. In the dream God also spoke to Jacob and promised to always be with him as He accomplished the Abrahamic covenant through him. [Read ...read more

    Couples, Pt. 4

    THE LABOR OF LOVE (GENESIS 29:9-35) One of the best quotes on love I know of comes from Liz Carpenter. She said, “Love is a moment and a lifetime. It is looking at him across a room and feeling that if I don’t send the rest of my life with him, I’ll have missed the boat.” More than 66% of adults ...read more

    Many times we fail to receive the Lord’s blessings because we put what we love before us rather than what the Lord wants.

    FIRST THINGS FIRST GENESIS 29:25-27 When morning came, there was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban, “what is this you have done to me? I served you for Rachel, didn’t I? Why have you deceived me?” Laban replied, “ It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter in marriage before the ...read more

    When the "realities" around us seem to crumble and fall, we must rely upon the "Kingdom Realities" of God’s promises.

    When You Fail To Trust God

    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

    When you feel like Jacob - "Help, I married the wrong person." Within every man and woman there lies 2 dimensions - the lovable Rachel side and the difficult Leah side. Successful marriages recognize both sides and learns to embrace both sides.

    Jacob thought lightly about taking advantage of others, but he didn’t take it so lightly when others took advantage of him.

    What Goes Around Comes Around (Genesis 29:14b-30) 1. My son, Scott, an insurance broker in Florida, loves ocean fishing and takes his cell phone along on the boat.

    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. Genesis 29:1. Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land of the people of the east. Here we pick with ...read more

    It is said that every man or woman's life contains sufficient material for a great novel. Joseph's life certainly did.

    Chuck Swindoll in his book entitled “Joseph” writes, “The Bible is the supreme Book on human personality. From Adam in Genesis to Satan in the Apocalypse, its portraits are unforgettable. Augustine wrote how men wander over the earth and wonder at the rivers and the mountains ...read more

    If there is one trait of Jacob that stands out, it is his craftiness. Our chapter presents another crafty fellow who will out-fox Jacob.
