Jacob is growing up. In these verses today we see Jacob move from a deceiver to one that fights for God. This is a good reason for the name change after the WWE wresting match with God (I wonder if that was a theophany of Jesus?). Jacob makes peace with his father in law, matures in his thinking about his brother, fights for a blessing from God, makes peace with Esau, stands up for the mistreatment of his daughter and rebukes his sons’ slaughter of the men at Shechem.God will take us where ever we are, but once our hearts start to align with his, God can begin to do mighty things with our lives and efforts. How often do you wrestle with God? I have full out WWE matches on a weekly basis. When I surrender to God’s will and follow his plan, the Kingdom always draws near and blessing abound.
