PT-2 of Jacob's Prayer (Gen. 32:10)

 

SPIRITUAL DIARY FOR 02-07-2007

 

My Worship Time                                                                  Focus:  Jacob’s Prayer Part 2

 

Bible Reading & Meditation                                         Reference:  Genesis 32:10

 

            Message of the verse:  “10  I am unworthy of all the lovingkindness and of all the faithfulness which You have shown to Your servant; for with my staff only I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.”

           

            Jacob admits of his unworthiness before God, and then thanks Him for all of the blessings that God has given to Him over these past twenty years.  Jacob left his home with only a shepherd’s staff and now he has wives and children and cattle and goats and sheep and also has many servants, and it seems that Jacob knows that all of these blessings have come from the hand of God.

 

            Spiritual meaning for my life today: As I look back on my life before Jesus Christ invaded it back in January of 1974 it was pretty much meaningless and without any purpose, but because of God’s grace and mercy He has given me purpose and meaning and has given me direction to go and so many blessings from His gracious hand.

 

The Word of God has been very refreshing to me as I read and studied it this morning.

 

My Steps of Faith Today:  Continue to seek from the Lord that He would teach me contentment and direct my path that I would not be anxious, but would be content.
