One morning we were drifting about ten miles offshore as Scott discussed business on the phone. Suddenly his rod bent double, and the ...read more

    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

    If we’re going to "put the icing" on the days God makes for us, we must enjoy his delights and embrace his discipline.

    Lauri Johnson of Hudsonville, Michigan, talks about a wonderful afternoon her two sons, 12-year-old Matthew and 6-year-old Ryan, spent with her parents recently. When they were ready to leave, Matthew’s grandpa said to him, “You made my day.” Matthew replied, “God made your day; we just put the ...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

    As a child of God, we have much to be thankful about.

    Intro. The lack of thankfulness is the greatest problem of most of our lives. If we were thankful, we would live differently. Psalms 92:1 "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:" The Hebrew word is one that is a synonym of a word ...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.

    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

    When You Fail To Trust God

     | 31,976 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

    Deception

    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

    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.

    Jacob marrying Leah and Rachel in Genesis 29:1-30 teaches us that God uses even human deception to fulfill his promise that Jacob's descendants shall be as numerous as the dust of the earth.

    Scripture We are currently in a series of sermons on "Isaac's Descendants." After twenty years of barrenness, God gave Isaac and Rebekah twin sons, whom they named Esau and Jacob. As a young man, Esau despised his birthright and sold it to his twin brother, Jacob. Much later, Jacob deceived his ...read more
