Betrayal, struggle, wrestling, and redemption. These are the components of a great story. Many of us have been through these seasons. Maybe you are in one of these seasons now. In this message, Pastor Eric Robertson shares the story of Jacob. Providence is the tension between my ability to choose my next step and God's ability to choose it for me.God working behind the scenes to bring about His will and our good, both with and without our participation.Jacob's story is a story of God's providence, bringing about His will and Jacob's good in the life of someone who lived almost entirely for himself.·      Jacob's choices tell us something about ourselves: We sometimes would rather take from God what He already wanted to give us.·      God was with Jacob, but Jacob's decisions had real consequences. God may guide our destinies, but our decisions determine the difficulty/detours.·      Even when think we have what we want, a fugitive never rests easy. You may be running from God, but in His house is where you belong and Jacob feels this, so this he flees back home... ·      Jacob walks away from a God-encounter with a limp, but also with a new name. Your past is going to leave scars, but your scars don't determine your identity, God does.·      His whole life, Jacob took blessing he wasn't given. That night he finally asked for one, and he waited, wrestling until morning, to receive it. Peace requires patience. Blessing requires submission. Destiny requires a new name with a new limp. ·      Jacob spent his life taking, but everything he went through led him to this moment of receiving. Every misstep, every poor decision redeemed by God, almost like it was the plan the whole time.·      God can redeem your pain, your tragedy, and your mistakes. No matter how far of a detour you've taken, God can fix it.·      Providence doesn't answer the question as to whether something was going to happen along. It does make us more comfortable with saying "I don't know, but I trust Him." Are you trusting God with your future?

The God Of Abraham, Isaac And Jacob  Part 3:  The God Of Jacob  -  English and Spanish.  The Scriptures repeatedly refer to the Almighty as "the God of Jacob." Why is this title so important for followers of Yeshua to understand?  Recorded on July 11, 2026. 

In today's episode I will be praying over us, reading Psalm 46, and saying whatever the Holy Spirit prompts me to say after I read the scripture. This is day 46 of a series where I will be reading a Psalm everyday on here for 150 days. I challenge you to come to join me everyday as we use scripture to fight off the enemy and grow us in ways that we can't even imagine.   My First Christian Children's book, "You Are Loved" is now available for purchase on Amazon!!

Genesis 32:22-32, Psalm 24:5-6

A study of Genesis 31

“Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God,” (Psalms‬ ‭146‬:‭5‬)

“But his bow remained in strength, And the arms of his hands were made strong By the hands of the Mighty God of Jacob (From there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel),” (Genesis‬ ‭49‬:‭24‬)

The lyrical air ‘Dawning of the Day' (Fáinne Geal an Lae) conveys this Psalm's message of courage and hope. Through the imagery presented in this Psalm, we see mountains falling into the sea, and the world in upheaval ~ yet, we are also presented with the assuring image of a river that brings joy, and the message that we might be still and know that God is the ultimate ruler over all.Get your accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practicePaid subscribers receive a free journal PDF, or you can purchase a paperback versionVisit the Celtic Psalms website for scores/books, mp3s, CDs, and videos for The God of JacobFind out more about the Habits for the Spirit course: an 8-week online course exploring habits and daily spiritual practices to promote wellbeing in body, mind, and spiritFollow Kiran's monthly reflections on Bless My FeetPsalms for the Spirit is a reader-supported publication.

Sermon Date: 04/15/2026; Pastor Bill Bryson; Scripture Passage: Psalm 146Support the show

The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. [NKJV]

The God of Jacob became the God of Israel. When we see the second Person of the Trinity's presence in the Exodus story, we can better appreciate the awe-inspiring nature of his incarnation and sacrificial death.

We need God's mercy and grace in our lives. Whatever our age and whatever our type of personality or confidence for life level, God is willingly giving us His precious love and gifts - even though we totally do not deserve that consideration from Him. We have seen amazing things happen around the world in our life times (both good and bad), but the effects of God's mercy absolutely dwarf any of those that we can bring to mind. As we receive God's mercy, let us then pass it on to others and see what God does with that domino effect."May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all." (2 Corinthians 13:14Unfortunately the first five minutes of this Talk were not recorded. Take a look at the script to get the gist of what was said. The script for the whole Service can be read here.

How is God glorified through judgment?

Your Nightly Prayer

David's entire life involved conflict.  When he was a shepherd, he was fighting with lions and bears. As a teenager or young adult, he fights a giant named Goliath.  He becomes a commander in Saul's army and leads men into battles day after day. When he flees from Saul for ten years he daily is in danger of losing his life hiding in caves and in the wilderness. Now David is king of Israel with an established and flourishing kingdom but he still has surrounding nations attacking him.   If there is one thing David has learned through all the adversity and conflict he has faced in his life, it is that there is no victory without the Lord's help!  And he knows that it comes from praying and seeking Jehovah's aid!    Too many people get saved thinking it will get them out of their trouble. But God never promised us that the Christian life would be a bed of roses!  Actually, we have be warned by the Savior Himself that “in this world we would have tribulation.”  We are at war! Life is a constant battle for the believer! Even when Israel crossed the Jordan River into the Promise Land, they still had battles to fight!   But we have been assured of victory because we have a Leader, the Lord Jesus Christ, who has already “overcome the world” (John 16:33).  He has already won the victory over sin, death, hell and the grave, by His death and resurrection!  Through Him we are now more than conquerors (Romans 8:37-39).  We stand in His victory and having done all we stand (Ephesians 6:10-18).   We often feel so unworthy and weak as we face our daily battles that it is hard to pray and seek the Lord's help. Moses wasn't feeling so strong and confident when he was called to lead the people of Israel out of Egypt. He wasn't sure he could defeat the most powerful king of his day, the Pharaoh of Egypt. So, when God appeared to him at the burning bush, He assured Moses that He was “the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”   This was to remind Moses of the character and attributes of the kind of God that was calling and helping him. As the God of Abraham, we learn our God is sovereign wants us to trust Him by faith!  As the God of Isaac, we learn that God has given us a great inheritance simply because we are His child!  As the God of Jacob, we are assured that no matter how miserable a failure we are, how weak we are, how deceitful or sinful we have been, God still desires to be “our God”.    I've said for years, that if God can be the “God of Jacob”, He can be my God.  He can be the God of anyone who will submit to Him as Jacob finally did in Genesis 32 at the Jabbok River, and where God changed his name to “Israel”.  No doubt, this is why the “God of Jacob” is mentioned some 23 times in the Bible.    So, when the people were praying for their king in Psalm 20:1-5, they pleaded for the “God of Jacob” to defend him.  David was a great king, but he wasn't perfect and had made some terrible mistakes and committed some awful sins.  But the “God of Jacob” was his God and despite his weaknesses and failures, he could be assured that God would be his defense!    My friend, today the name of the “God of Jacob” will come to your aid and you can be assured, “That those who know His name will put their trust in Him and He will not forsake those who seek Him!” (Psalm 9:10)   God bless!
