Episode 11: Lessons From the life of Jacob

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Behold Women: At the Table, Allie spends time teaching on the story of Jacob from Genesis. 

    Some important takeaways and quotes: 

    • God's choice of Jacob over Esau reflects that His favor is graciously given and not earned by works or deserved by position. 
    • God wanted Jacob to receive the greater blessing and he received it. In all of the deception, God's will was advanced. We see here in plain sight that no human act can thwart God's will. God did not abandon His gracious promise but used even the misguided acts of Isaac, Rebekah, Esau, and Jacob to further His plan for the salvation of the world. 
    • Jacob came to know the God whose blessing he had so coveted because of his continued struggle with his brother. Now, in a dream, he learned of God's grace and began to appreciate God's choice of him without the necessity of having his rivalry with his brother motivating his desire for blessing. 
    • What motivates your desire for a blessing? What motivates your desire to walk in the promises of God? 
    • God is steadfast in His promises and unwavering in His commitment to His people.
