I never had the order of events correct - the victory came from clinging not wrestling. Thank you for your study. Glory to God.
Wow praise the Lord!!!
Hi Chris. I am from South Africa. My late father's testimony is based on Genesis 32. It is a remarkable story of how he got saved as a young 18 year old boy....after a train accident in October 1945.
Thanks for sharing!
Welcome back, Chris. Truly this a Master - piece study. And it is so relevant for such a time as this. We are on the very border of the Promised Land ourselves and as the Feast of Trumpets is being celebrated October 2, we will one day hear the sound of trumpets and voices mentioned in the 7th Trumpet in Revelation 11. May God help us to trust God to give us the victory over our flesh to be ready for the Day of Atonement as Christ fulfills His priestly ministry. Thank you brother for such a good Word. Pastor Bob "He touched me, He touched me, and Oh the joy the floods my soul...He touched me and made me whole."
holy spirit led me here, I was just thinking about how Jacob used deception to get the blessing while eating lunch. Then click this and you are teaching on it. Wonderful!
Absolutely wonderful …..your on my must watch list now
I listened because I always wondered about that passage of Scripture… interestingly though, the journey you outlined has been my own journey also and I’ve finally learned that faith in God is not the same as trusting Him. I’ve been slow to learn and I’m so thankful for His patience and mercy while I insist on learning the hard way… The LORD is so amazing. So very thankful for all that He is and all that He does for us all through Christ Jesus our Lord. 🥹
Thank you for clarifying these verses well. ❤
Thanks for sharing. Glad the video was helpful.
Wow, talk about timing! I was thinking of you for the first time in many weeks about an hour ago and wondering when there’d be a new video. Opening my TH-cam subscriptions was a happy surprise. ☺️
Thank you so much for this study! The conclusion fits perfectly with Isaiah 30:15… unfortunately human nature fights surrender with a passion.
Rich Mullins, in the song ‘Come to Jesus (Untitled Hymn)’, wrote, “…I’d rather fight you for something I don’t really want than to take what you give that I need….”
Praise God that because His compassions fail not, we are not consumed! His mercies are new every morning. 🙏🏻 (Lamentations 3)
Thank you, very good indeed. Now I have got it, and it is just what my life is centred on, nowadays : not relying on my own strength but holding up on God in trust, not “ leaning on my own understanding” but waiting on his Spirit to clarify things for me, - and it sounds so simple, “‘let go …let God” - but then the ego muscles in : “I can do it! “..and I’m literally stumped again…and again …
…Your will be done..
Reality. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you brother mist your videos 🙏blessings ❤
I haven't watched your videos before, but allow me to interject some further insight I had about this passage many years ago - and it is indeed one of the most misunderstood in all of scripture: The 'wrestling' here is verbal, not physical. This situation was similar to Moses stepping in to save the children of Israel from annhililating wrath. In both cases, there was a detriment to Jacob and Moses. Moses eventually allowed Israel to provoke him at the Rock of Meribah, which disallowed him from entering the promised land. Jacob was "wrestling" with Messiah about Esau's outcome. Messiah wanted to remove Esau the same way He wanted to remove the stiffnecked Israelites. But Moses loved the people, just as Jacob loved his brother, and in Jacob's case - his hip was dislocated. Messiah was trying to explain to Jacob how Esau's people would vex Israel. This is what Messiah wasn't prevailing in - convincing Jacob that His plan is better (just as He does with us all). Messiah then dislodged Jacob's hip, as a testament to how Esau will keep Israel from walking uprightly. Plus, the loin/groin/hip area is what was touched when initiating a covenant with someone. Messiah then changed his name from Jacob (heel, supplanter, deceiver) to Israel (the upright of ELohim). When Jacob saw the sun rising, he wanted to rejoin his family, and it was Messiah Who told him that He wouldn't let Him go until He kneeled (hebrew word meaning 'bless') before Him, and Jacob asked His name, but Messiah retorted, 'why do you want to know My name [when you aren't even doing what I say]?' I hope this helps
Isaiah 30:15
You're back! I love your content, brother. Subscribing now.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the feedback and support.
He also had to open the womb of Rebecca. There are 7 barren wombs God opened pointing to the barren womb of Mary. The Word of God is truly fascinating. Thx brother
Was not aware of that. Thanks for sharing!

What a beautiful Word:
Sarah
Rebecca
Rachel
Hannah
Samson’s mom
Shunammite woman
Elizabeth
@BobB777.7 He also reopened Leah's womb, when she bore Issachar.
Could it also be a foreshadowing of how Israel, as a nation, continues throughout their history to wrestle with God?
