🔑📖Key Verse: "And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?" (Genesis 27:18).
📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖📖
The question Isaac asked Jacob is a very important question because Isaac wanted to confirm the true identity of the one to receive his blessings. Isaac asked Jacob, "Who art thou, my son?" Jacob lied that he was Esau. He deceived his father, and his father gave him the blessing.
Are you like Jacob, a deceiver? Do you cheat other children in order to make progress? Do you pull down others so that you can climb to the top? Repent today and turn away from such bad behaviour! *
Later in Genesis 32:27, the angel again asked Jacob the same question, "What is your name?" He replied by saying "Jacob", he had realized his wrongdoing. He corrected his past error. He answered his name correctly because that was the only condition to receive mercy and answer to his prayer. Then the angel of God blessed him.
If you have told lies in the past, today, you can make your way right. Repent and confess your sins to Jesus, ask Him to wash you clean in His blood, and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour. Then, you can freely come and enjoy the promised blessings for His children. *
🙏🙏Prayer: Forgive me Lord for past sins, and give me the grace to always be truthful.
