Grace Came After Jacob - September 4, 2023

If you want to see God’s steadfast devotion…

If you need to know how long God will put up with a scoundrel and his scandals…

If you are wondering if God’s plan has a place for botchers and bunglers and schemers…

If you could benefit from a tale of God’s unending, unbending, unswerving faithfulness…

Then the story of Jacob is what you need.

In Exodus 3:15 God said to Moses, “…The Lord is the God of your ancestors—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob…” God used Jacob in spite of Jacob. Period.

The word for such devotion? Grace. Grace came after Jacob. Grace found him in the desert. Grace protected him when he lived in exile. Grace wrestled him to the ground and blessed him.

Do you know such grace? God never gives up on you.
