-------------------

Jacob wrestled with God. Jacob was used to relying on himself. He was strong and had always figured out how to handle the various situations he was in. However, God would challenge his self-reliance and bring Jacob to the place of making the choice to live by faith and trust in God and His provision and protection.

Self-reliance is a weakness we all struggle with. True faith requires that we relinquish control and allow God to weaken our self-reliance so we can be strong in faith.

Faith means trusting God to work things out rather than striving in one's own power.
