Genesis 27:35-38
35 But he said, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.”
36 Esau said, “Isn’t he rightly named Jacob? This is the second time he has taken advantage of me: He took my birthright, and now he’s taken my blessing!” Then he asked, “Haven’t you reserved any blessing for me?”
37 Isaac answered Esau, “I have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants, and I have sustained him with grain and new wine. So what can I possibly do for you, my son?”
38 Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.
Theme: God’s righteousness
Question to think about: When is it the most difficult to do something that is right?
Scripture: Genesis 27: 1-32
Questions to ponder:
1) What did Jacob’s mom tell him to do?
2) What did Jacob choose to do?
3) What do you think you would have done if you were in Jacob’s shoes?
Prayer: Ask God to help you to always choose to do what is right even when the circumstance is challenging.
