And Jacob Was Left Alone

Genesis 32:21~32│ Then he said, “Your name shall no longer
be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with
men, and have prevailed.” (28)

When Jacob solely concentrated on God at the Jabbok
River, God called him “Israel” and showed him the
covenant of world evangelization that would be fulfilled
through him. Similarly, God has prepared this blessing
for you. Yielding everything to others, embracing them,
and gaining victory without competing was the covenant
of Israel. How can you receive that same covenant?

1. Enter God’s Absolute Sovereignty and Absolute
Covenant God chose Jacob from the very
beginning.Genesis 25:25 This was God’s unchanging
absolute sovereignty. Moreover, God’s absolute covenant
for world evangelization will undoubtedly be fulfilled.
Jacob confirmed his blessing during the time of
concentrating on God.Genesis 32:21~32 Likewise, you are
inside God’s absolute sovereignty and His absolute
covenant. Hence, there aren’t any reasons for you to be
anxious or afraid.

2. Enter God’s Absolute Answer
Jacob fully concentrated on God to the point where he
wrestled with Him. As a result, Jacob called that place
Peniel which means, “For I have seen God face to face.”
At that time, he was given a new name, “Israel.” 
Like this, those who grab
hold of the absolute covenant inside God’s absolute sovereignty
will receive the absolute answer that cannot be blocked.
This is the answer of a witness that is given to those who
hold onto the Gospel.
God granted eternal blessings to Jacob who
entered the absolute sovereignty, the absolute covenant,
and the absolute answer. 
You, too, are inside these eternal blessings of God. 
Today, may you restore those blessings that were given to Jacob.
