Beginnings: A Study In Genesis

DAY 34 OF 53

What does it say?

Jacob separated from Laban. Jacob’s faithfulness and obedience were met with anger and accusation.

What does it mean?

Jacob served Laban faithfully for twenty years, and in that time he multiplied Laban’s wealth and family exponentially. Then, as he prepared to return home, his diligence and obedience were met with deceit and hostility. After so many years of faithfulness, he was treated as a thief and a liar. He could easily have questioned why God allowed this to happen. Instead, he chose obedience, and God showed that all along He had been faithful in protecting and prospering Jacob. 

How should I respond?

There are times when circumstances are the opposite of what we expect even when our actions come from pure motives. In those moments, it is easy to feel hopeless or alone. Though we may not see it, God is always actively involved in the lives of His children. We can choose to focus on the circumstances or on the God who is constantly watching over us. Do you believe that God is actively involved in your life even when you can’t understand what’s going on? Take time to pray and ask God what He is doing in your life. You may discover that even though you didn’t realize it, He has been moving all along.

About this Plan

Beginnings: A Study In Genesis

As its name implies, Genesis is a book of beginnings. The beginning of the world, the beginning of the line of Abraham, and the beginning of God's covenantal relationship with his people are all recorded in Genesis. Although filled with the sin, rebellion, and the chronic unfaithfulness of His people, God consistently demonstrates his covenantal faithfulness to bring about salvation and redemption for all who have faith in Him.
