Jacob and Esau

Jacob and Esau

Genesis 25:24-34

Jacob and Esau were fraternal twins. Not identical. They shared the same birthday but we're very different. They were raised in the same home with the same values and each had a different sinful nature.

Jacob finally grows up and stops living and deceiving. Esau grows up and stops being the impatient angry man that was controlled by his emotions!

Genesis 33:1-12

Jacob became the father of Israel and Esau was the father of the Edomites. Genesis 36:1; Deuteronomy 23:7; 2 Samuel 8:13; Psalms 137:7

Jacob had a relationship with God. Jacob grew up knowing about God but need to develop a relationship with God to truly Know God! Genesis 28:10-22

Jacobs life was changed when he met God and had a relationship with God and committed his life to God! If your not being changed then you are not being connected with God. There is no relationship with God that does not produce change and good fruit!!

Jacob dreamed with God, wrestled with God and never gave up on God!! Jacobs life ended with him worshiping God! Genesis 47:28-31

How do you want to end your life? Do you have a relationship with God that sustains you?!

Sometimes we get confused with being good to having a relationship God! They are not the same. God wants a close intimate relationship with all of us. It goes far beyond just being a good person or knowing about God intellectually!

Hebrews 10:19-25
