Genesis
12:2-3
NOW,
THE LORD (GOD Almighty) Had Said TO Abram (aka Abraham): I
WILL MAKE YOU, A GREAT NATION; I WILL BLESS YOU, AND MAKE YOUR NAME
GREAT; AND YOU SHALL BE A BLESSING! I WILL BLESS THOSE, WHO BLESS
YOU; AND I WILL CURSE HIM, WHO CURSES YOU; AND IN YOU, ALL THE
FAMILIES Of
THE EARTH, SHALL BE BLESSED!”
Genesis
27:29
THEN,
His Father, Isaac, Said TO Him (Jacob), “Let
Peoples SERVE YOU (Jacob), And Nations, BOW DOWN TO YOU (Jacob)! BE
MASTER, OVER Your Brethren, And Let Your Mother’s Sons, BOW DOWN TO
YOU (Jacob)! CURSED, BE EVERYONE, Who Curses YOU (Jacob); AND
BLESSED, BE THOSE, WHO BLESS YOU (Jacob)!”
Genesis
28:1, 3-4
THEN,
Isaac Called Jacob, And BLESSED Him (Jacob), And Charged Him, And
Said TO Him: “May GOD Almighty BLESS YOU (Jacob), And MAKE YOU
(Jacob) Fruitful AND Multiply YOU; That YOU May Be, An Assembly Of
Peoples; AND GIVE YOU (Jacob), THE BLESSING Of Abraham, TO YOU
(Jacob), AND Your Descendants, WITH YOU; That YOU (Jacob) May INHERIT
The Land, IN Which, YOU (Jacob) Are A Stranger, Which GOD (GOD
Almighty) GAVE TO Abraham!”
Genesis
28:10-22
NOW,
Jacob Went Out, From Beersheba, And Went Toward Haran. SO, He
(Jacob) Came To A Certain Place, And Stayed There, All Night, Because
The Sun Had Set! And He (Jacob) TOOK, One Of The Stones Of THAT
Place, And Put It (The Stone), At His Head (Jacob’s Head), And He
(Jacob) Lay Down, IN THAT Place, TO Sleep.
THEN,
He (Jacob) DREAMED; AND BEHOLD, A LADDER WAS SET UP, ON The Earth,
AND ITS TOP (The Top Of The Ladder), REACHED TO HEAVEN; AND THERE,
THE ANGELS Of
GOD (GOD Almighty), WERE ASCENDING AND DESCENDING, ON IT (The
Ladder)!
AND
BEHOLD, THE LORD (GOD Almighty) STOOD ABOVE IT (The Ladder), AND
SAID: “I AM THE LORD, GOD Of Abraham, Your Father, AND THE GOD Of
Isaac; The Land, On Which, YOU (Jacob) Lie, I (GOD Almighty) WILL
GIVE TO YOU (Jacob), AND Your Descendants!”
“Also,
Your Descendants Shall BE, As The Dust Of The Earth; YOU (Jacob)
Shall Spread, Abroad; TO The West AND The East, TO The North AND The
South; AND IN YOU (Jacob), AND IN Your Seed, ALL The Families Of The
Earth, SHALL BE BLESSED!”
“Behold,
I (GOD Almighty) AM WITH YOU (Jacob), AND WILL KEEP YOU (Jacob),
WHEREVER YOU (Jacob) GO, AND WILL BRING YOU (Jacob) BACK, TO THIS
LAND; FOR I (GOD Almighty) WILL NOT LEAVE YOU (Jacob); UNTIL, I (GOD
Almighty) HAVE DONE, WHAT I (GOD Almighty) HAVE SPOKEN, TO YOU
(Jacob)!”
THEN,
Jacob Awoke, From His Sleep, And Said, “Surely, THE LORD (GOD
Almighty),
IS IN, THIS PLACE, AND I (Jacob) Did NOT Know It!” AND He (Jacob)
Was Afraid AND Said, “HOW AWESOME, IN THIS PLACE! THIS IS NONE
OTHER THAN, THE HOUSE Of
GOD (GOD Almighty), AND THIS IS, THE GATE Of
HEAVEN!”
THEN,
Jacob Rose Early, in The Morning, AND Took THE STONE, That He Had
Put, At His Head, SET IT UP, AS A PILLAR, AND Poured Oil, On Top Of
IT! And He (Jacob) Called The Name Of THAT PLACE, Bethel; But, The
Name Of THAT City Had Been, Luz, Previously.
THEN,
Jacob Made A Vow, Saying, “IF GOD (GOD Almighty) WILL BE, WITH Me,
AND KEEP Me, IN This Way, That I Am Going, AND GIVE Me, Bread To Eat,
AND Clothing, To Put On; So That, I Come Back, TO My Father’s
House, IN Peace; THEN, THE LORD, SHALL BE MY GOD! AND THIS STONE,
Which I Have SET, AS A PILLAR, SHALL BE GOD’S
HOUSE, AND Of All, That YOU (GOD Almighty) GIVE Me, I (Jacob) Will
Surely GIVE, A Tenth, TO YOU (GOD Almighty)!”
Genesis
31:11, 13
THEN,
THE ANGEL Of
GOD (GOD Almighty), Spoke To Me (Jacob), IN A Dream, Saying, ‘Jacob.’
And I Said, ‘Here I Am.’ I AM THE GOD Of Bethel, WHERE YOU
(Jacob) ANOINTED THE PILLAR; AND WHERE YOU (Jacob) MADE A VOW, TO ME
(GOD Almighty). NOW, ARISE, GET OUT Of
THIS LAND, AND RETURN TO THE LAND, Of
YOUR FAMILY!’”
Genesis
32:24-30
THEN,
Jacob WAS LEFT ALONE; AND A MAN (GOD Almighty) WRESTLED WITH Him
(Jacob), UNTIL The Breaking Of Day!
NOW,
WHEN HE (GOD Almighty) SAW THAT HE (GOD Almighty) DID NOT PREVAIL,
AGAINST Him (Jacob); HE (GOD Almighty) TOUCHED The Socket Of
His Hip (Jacob’s Hip); AND The Socket Of
Jacob’s Hip, WAS OUT Of
Joint, AS HE (GOD Almighty) WRESTLED WITH Him (Jacob)!
AND
HE (GOD Almighty) SAID, “LET ME GO, FOR THE DAY BREAKS.”
BUT,
He (Jacob) Said, “I Will NOT Let YOU GO, UNLESS YOU BLESS Me!”
SO,
HE (GOD Almighty) SAID TO Him (Jacob), “WHAT
IS
YOUR NAME?”
He
(Jacob) SAID, “Jacob.” AND HE (GOD Almighty) SAID, “YOUR NAME
SHALL NO LONGER BE CALLED, JACOB, BUT ISRAEL;
FOR
YOU HAVE STRUGGLED WITH GOD (GOD Almighty) AND WITH MEN, AND HAVE
PREVAILED.” THEN, Jacob (Israel) Asked, Saying, “Tell
Me
Your
Name, I PRAY.”
AND
HE (GOD Almighty) SAID, “WHY
IS
IT
THAT
YOU
ASK ABOUT MY NAME?” AND HE (GOD Almighty) BLESSED Him
(Jacob/Israel) THERE!
SO,
Jacob (Israel) Called The Name Of
The Place, Peniel:
“FOR
I HAVE SEEN GOD (GOD Almighty) FACE TO FACE, AND MY LIFE IS
PRESERVED!”
Genesis
35:1, 9-12
THEN,
GOD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO Jacob (Israel), “ARISE, GO UP TO BETHEL
AND DWELL THERE; AND MAKE AN ALTAR THERE, TO GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO
APPEARED TO YOU, WHEN YOU FLED, FROM THE FACE Of
ESAU, YOUR BROTHER!”
THEN,
GOD (GOD Almighty) APPEARED TO Jacob, AGAIN, WHEN He (Jacob) Came
From Padan Aram, AND BLESSED Him (Jacob).
AND
GOD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO Him (Jacob), “YOUR NAME, IS JACOB; YOUR
NAME, SHALL NOT BE CALLED, JACOB, ANYMORE; BUT ISRAEL, SHALL BE YOUR
NAME!”
SO,
HE (GOD Almighty) CALLED His Name (Jacob’s Name), ISRAEL!
ALSO,
GOD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO Him (Jacob/Israel): “I AM GOD
ALMIGHTY, BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY; A NATION AND A COMPANY Of
NATIONS, SHALL PROCEED FROM YOU (Jacob/Israel), AND KINGS SHALL COME,
FROM YOUR BODY!
THE
LAND, WHICH I (GOD Almighty) GAVE ABRAHAM AND ISAAC, I (GOD Almighty)
GIVE TO YOU (Jacob/Israel); AND TO YOUR DESCENDANTS, AFTER YOU, I
(GOD Almighty) GIVE THIS LAND!”
Fellow
Believers, We Learn Four Important Things, About Israel, IN This
Message.
1
Just As GOD Almighty BLESSED Abraham (aka Abram), THAT BLESSING, Was
Passed Down, TO Jacob.
2
Jacob’ Vision Of The Ladder; Which Reached To Heaven, Itself; With
GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, Ascending AND Descending, Upon IT; AND
With GOD Almighty, AT The Top Of The Ladder.
3
Jacob Wrestled, With GOD Almighty, HIMSELF, IN The Dark Of The Night,
AND LIVED!
4
GOD Almighty CHANGED Jacob’s Name, To “ISRAEL,” AND HE (GOD
Almighty) BLESSED Israel (aka Jacob), AND Tells Him (Israel), He Will
Become A Great Nation, The Jewish Nation, The Children Of Israel, The
Great Nation Of Israel!
