Choosing God Instead of the World - Learning From the Lives of Jacob and Josephনমুনা
Let's learn it together!
Therefore, if you have been raised with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Keep thinking about things above, not things on earth, for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
Colossians 3:1–3
Challenge yourself!
This week, record the major events of Jacob’s life. Do these things occur because of Jacob’s plans or God’s deliverance? How does Jacob’s manipulation or impatience affect each outcome? Take time to reflect on the ways you attempt to “help” God accomplish His purposes.

About this Plan
Choosing God Instead of the World studies the lives of Jacob and Joseph, their families, and the choices they faced. Both men were given a specific promise from God, but they lived out their faith very differently. We will see the importance of choosing the things of God and the way God rewards those who walk with Him. We will also discover how God's promises to them never failed.
