Follow the example of Jacob - Gospel message of God's word


Never stop fighting for his blessingIf you persevere your blessings comeDo not give up your miracle

24 And Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak.25 When he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and moved the hollow of Jacob's thigh, as he wrestled with him.26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh.And Jacob said: Do not let thee go, except thou bless me.27 asked him: What is your name? And he said, Jacob28 Then he said, not be called any more Jacob, but Israel, because thou hast striven with God and with men and have prevailed.29 And Jacob asked him, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Why do you ask my name?And he blessed him there.
Genesis 32:24 to 29

Jacob was very afraid because he went to meet his brother Esau fear exists because in the past, Jacob had wronged God, with his father and his brother. He had lied and deceived.
Time passed, and although Jacob had gained great wealth and become rich that was not enough to bring happiness to his heart. He needed to be reconciled, with God the Father first and then with his brother.
Jacob was a man like us. Jacob had made mistakes in life. Jacob repented of past mistakes. Jacob changed his way of acting and personal life of Jacob and material has been restored, but was missing something very important: the complete restoration of his relationship with God and with his brother Esau.
Jacob was to meet his brother. He was very afraid. He feared for his life. He thought his brother would kill him and his people because of mistakes he had committed in the past. Terror haunted the mind and the heart of Jacob
It was this situation that Jacob found himself alone, and certainly, his heart oppressed and slaughtered by the uncertainties of the future he must have cried and prayed for divine help.
Jacob was not discouraged. Jacob took the last ounce of strength and hope and that he had prayed, cried out to God and Jacob finally got felt God's presence.But only felt the presence was not enough to calm the fearful, oppressed and distressed heart of Jacob Jacob needed more. Jacob wanted to be sure that God would take care of that situation just as he could. Jacob knew that if God did not put his powerful hand in this situation everything would go wrong. The only hope was that Jacob was sure that he only had a chance with the brother's blessing and anointing of God Almighty was with him.
Faced with this situation what Jacob did?
He went to sleep?He was whining?He was mumbling about?He discouraged?He turned back?He resigned to face the problems?He ran in the face of difficulties?
No!
He grappled with our Almighty God. He clung to God with all your strength and from there he did not let go for nothing. Even at a disadvantage Jacob did not give up. Even though it was almost impossible to get what he wanted so he did not stop. Even though he felt severe pain and suffering he continued clinging to God. Jacob has not separated from God. Jacob insisted.Jacob Jacob fought and failed to receive a blessing from God who restored and changed his life.
And you? Do you need a special blessing?
Their families;At his school;In their relationships;In his marriage;In their physical, emotional and sentimental;In your company;In his work;In your love life;In your financial life;In his spiritual life;
Where you have sought the blessing to change your life. Things in the world? In the ballad? In friendships, friends? In the fortune teller? With the dead? In vices? In life without God? That's what made the blessed Jacob?
Of course not!
To receive the real blessings of God in our lives we have to talk only with Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit of God. It is the Holy Trinity who does the work in our lives. It is she who is our blessed and no one else. It is here and with it that, uniquely, faith and perseverance we must always hold.
So our Lord Jesus Christ taught us:

7 Ask, and it is unto you, Seek, and ye shall find, knock and the door is open unto you.8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and he who knocks, the door to her will.9 Or what man is there among you who, if his son ask bread, will give a stone?10 Or if he ask a fish, will give him a serpent?11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to them that ask him?Matthew 7:7 to 11
We should not be ashamed or afraid to pray and cry out to God and ask Him what we need, for He Himself has taught us:
1 told them a parable about the duty to pray always and not to faint.2 Saying, There was a certain city a judge who neither feared God nor regarded man.3 There was also a widow in that city that came to him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.4 And for some time refused to answer it but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God nor regard man;5 Yet because this widow bothers me, I will do it justice, so she would not keep coming she weary me.6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night to him, as it is long with them?8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily.Nevertheless when the Son of man, shall he find faith on earth?
Luke 18: 1-8
That's it! To finish:
The just shall live by faith And if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.Hebrews 10 to 38Have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, the promise. Hebrews 10:36
Amen and Thank God
