Ministry of the Word: God promises to be with his people wherever they go
- Although Jacob received the birthright through trickery; things don't seem to be working out for him, and he is forced to flee.
- While today we know how the story ends, think about the situation from Jacob's perspective.
- Jacob, while fleeing, has a dream of hope. A ladder to heaven, granting him access to God.
- We can be assured today that God promises to be with us wherever we are and whatever we are doing.
