The Challenge Genesis 32 24-49





Read the passage: Genesis 32



v.27 1.The servant who wants to go on with God will meet God alone.
(And Jacob was left alone;)

v.24 2.There will be a personal confrontation with God.
(and there wrestled a man with him)There will be a personal encounter.

v.24 3.There will be a personal wrestling.
(and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.)

v.25 4.There will be a personal touch from God.
(He touched the hollow of his thigh; …)

v.27 5.There will be a personal interview.
(What is thy name?)

v.28 6.There will be a personal change.
(And He said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel:)

v.29 7.There will be a personal convincing of who God is.
(And He said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name?)
When there is a wrestling in our life, that is a sign of a need to be reconciled to God and to His
         will and plan in our  life.
