Genesis 32 | Wrestling with God - Jacob has wrestled his whole life, now God breaks him so that he is ready for all that God has promised and planned for himMessage by Anthony Webb, Pastor Ariah Park Baptist Church
Tara reflects on Matthew 4:1–4, where Jesus, led by the Holy Spirit, fasts for 40 days in the wilderness and faces the accuser's first temptation to turn stones into bread. She connects Jesus' response—recalling God's provision—to Jesus' grounding in the Torah and his calling to be the bread of life. She also explores stones as Old Testament markers of encounters with God (Jacob's pillow and Joshua's stones), suggesting stone and bread symbolize God's presence and provision even in temptation. She offers reflection questions, a Lenten practice of carrying a stone with a prayer, and shares her poem “A Stone to Re-member."Send Tara a Text MessageJoin Tara for Worship on Sunday morning at 10 am.

Providence refers to God's invisible hand and provision leading, guiding, and directing people and events to manage all things according to His will.Jacob had to escape where he grew up because he sinned against God, his father, mother, and brother in order to obtain a blessing by deceit. Jacob is thus forced to flee his home to escape the consequences of his sin. On his way to exile, God makes a promise to Jacob at Bethel (Genesis 28:13-15) that Jacob will return home. Decades later, in Genesis 31:3, God commands Jacob to return. In between promise and command, God was providentially directing Jacob the whole time.What happens "in between" is what Dr. Sadaphal will talk about in this episode.New episodes of WCSK the first Wednesday of the month.

Wrestling with God is part of the journey of faith. Sometimes it is because of our stubbornness or sin. Other times it is because the circumstances of life are unfair and draining. And there are times when our wrestling with God changes who we are. In this last week of our series, we will peak in on Jacob as he sleeps under the stars and gets a surprising visitor at night - one who forever changes his life.
“I'm kind of a genius.” James 1:19-22 // My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. 22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do. Most Christians are hypocrites. “84% of non-Christians say they know a Christian personally, yet only 15% say the lifestyles of those believers are noticeably different in a good way.” - David Kinnaman 900 Which one is best? The one you obey. Teleios - Mature, Perfected, Complete James 2:14-17 // What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. The Bible knows nothing of a fruitless faith. Faith & Works FAITH: Belief in action Abel brought an offering Noah built an ark Abraham left his home and offered up Isaac Sarah trusted God Jacob blessed his grandsons Joseph instructed about his burial Moses chose to be mistreated Rahab welcomed the spies WORKS: Literally deeds 3 TYPES OF FAITH: 1. Dead Faith James 2:15-17 // Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. 2. Demon Faith James 2:18-19 // But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. 3. Dynamic Faith James 2:20-26 // You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God's friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? 26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

Author and scholar Chad Bird joins our podcast again, this time to discuss one of his newer books, Limping with God: Jacob & the Old Testament Guide to Messy Discipleship. This book guides us through the stories of the Patriarch Jacob, a rare biblical account which documents a life from in utero until death. His multi-faceted and sometimes frustrating personality gives us a mirror in which we can see ourselves: lying and fighting to get ahead, taking advantage instead of showing mercy, looking out for ourselves while God looks for us. Be encouraged by the fact that God specializes in saving sinners and calling highly-imperfect people (like Jacob) to be His disciples. Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome” (Gen. 32:28).https://www.1517.org/https://www.tiktok.com/discover/chad-bird-1517https://www.1517.org/podcasts/40-minutes-in-the-old-testament Bookshttps://shop.1517.org/collections/books/chad-birdhttps://a.co/d/2P25n1gHebron is considered one of the oldest cities in the Levant. According to the Bible, Abraham settled in Hebron and bought the Cave of the Patriarchs as a burial place for his wife Sarah. Biblical tradition holds that the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, along with their wives Sarah, Rebecca, and Leah, were buried in the cave. Hebron is also recognized in the Bible as the place where David was anointed king ofIsrael. The attached photos were taken on our Sept. 2023 Homesick for Israel Tour. The tel at Hebron displays an ancient home, city walls, and a street which are all about 4500 years old. That is approximately the same age as the Pyramids of Giza!https://www.bibleplaces.com/hebron/
The story of Jacob in the book of Genesis is marked by two miraculous meetings with God: Jacob's ladder and Jacob wrestling with God. Between those two events, Jacob spends two decades in his uncle Laban's household working to earn the favor of God. Spoiler Alert! God's favor cannot be earned-- that's true for Jacob and it's true for you!
The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes; and to Him shall be the obedience of the people. Taught at Agape Bible Church on April 30, 2023. [39 minutes]
Sometimes our faith walk is compared to a race, but as we get bogged down with the struggles and challenges of life, we find ourselves limping, and most days, we sense that the Lord is carrying us and holding us up as we limp through life. In this episode, Michelle sits down and talks to Chad Bird, about his most recent book, Limping with God: Jacob & the Old Testament Guide to Messy Discipleship. Chad talks about: Why he wrote the book What he learned while writing the book, this was a fun fact to learn. How forgiveness is dying to ourselves and how God helps us to forgive Chad explains what fruitful winters are. We also talk about Jacob's ladder and how the story is different and better than the one we probably learned in Sunday School. Throughout the conversation, you will be reminded of God's mercy and grace and how he pours it out over us again and again.
