Welcome to the living word of God in genesis chapter 30 verse 26 onwards now Jacob came to her his father-in-law and said give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you and let me go for you know my service which I have done for you and Laban said to him please stay if I have found favor in your eyes for I have learned by experience that the lord has blessed me for your sake
Jacob wanted to go home
Jacob wanted to take his wives and children to his father’s place and so he told his father-in-law it is time for me to go
how many of us are longing to go home how long should we label in this world
oh Laban told in verse 28 then he said name me your wages and I will give it I tell you brothers and sisters how long should we continue living in this sinful world it is time to go home it is time to go home it is time for Jesus to come and take us home but I tell you brothers and sisters when I read this something that encouraged me as a follower of crisis Laban told Jacob please stay if I have found favor in your eyes for I have learned by experience that the lord has blessed me for your sake brothers and sisters as you believe in the needs of people who don’t know Jesus the living God as you live in the neighborhood where you might be the only one following Christ the living God the savior of this world can they see through their experiences as your neighbors can they see the Christ in you that when the time comes they will tell you stay with us out of experience we have learned that the lord have blessed me blessed us for your sake are you the reason why God is blessing your neighborhood your family your institution your church your organization I tell you brothers and sisters may we leave like Jacob so faithful that others will see God through us. Amen
