CHAMPIONS OF FAITH:- 8. JACOB
(Hebrews 11:21 NLT)
# It was by faith that Jacob, when he was old and dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons and bowed in worship as he leaned on his staff.
@ Jacob had faith like a mountain and had the experience of how God can bless an individual into a nation
@ His father-in-law didn't pay his salary as promised or as agreed upon. It was changed many times.
@ The business agreement with his father-in-law was revised many times so as to bring nothing to him.
@ Yet, Jacob stood by his faith in God and so he got the divine wisdom for the supernatural blessings.
@ He grew bigger and better than his father-in-law.
@ He was taken care by the Egyptian king till his death as a royal guest.
@ He could spent the end days with his beloved son Joseph & his family even though he was made to believe that Joseph died.
@ He lived a complete life, blessing the sons of Joseph and then worshipping God by leaning on his staff - surrendering his life to God.
# Are you going through disappointing situations?
# Don't give up. Don't loose heart. When you go through storms, all you have to do is hold on to God's promises and remain calm.
# Very soon the the storm will pass away and a rainbow will come.
# God will not let you down.
