00:00:00.620 --> 00:00:04.219
 Please take your Bibles and open them up this morning to the book of Genesis.

00:00:04.899 --> 00:00:05.679
 Book of Genesis.

00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:09.939
 If you're just joining us for the first time or first time in a while, we have been working

00:00:09.939 --> 00:00:11.939
 our way through the book of Genesis.

00:00:11.939 --> 00:00:18.359
 It's our normal practice to walk through books of the Bible, just one passage at a time.

00:00:18.420 --> 00:00:23.399
 And we've made our way to chapter 30, and we will pick up where we left off last week

00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:30.399
 in verse 25 of chapter 30, and Lord willing, make our way through the end of chapter 31.

00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:35.119
 So if you would, when you found that, let's stand in honor of the reading of God's Word.

00:00:35.239 --> 00:00:39.399
 It's a little bit of a longer passage this morning, and so I understand if you need to

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:44.899
 sit down, that's okay, but we believe that the reading of God's Word is just as profitable,

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.299
 if not more profitable, than all the preaching that comes afterwards.

00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:51.320
 So we're going to stand and read the Word of the Lord.

00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:54.060
 Please hear God's Word, Genesis 30, 25.

00:00:54.060 --> 00:00:58.420
 As soon as Rachel had born Joseph, Jacob said to Laban,

00:00:58.420 --> 00:01:01.000
 And send me away, that I may go to my own home and country.

00:01:01.780 --> 00:01:05.379
 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, that I may go,

00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.640
 for you know the service that I have given you.

00:01:08.420 --> 00:01:09.579
 But Laban said to him,

00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:14.840
 If I have found favor in your sight, I have learned by divination that the Lord has blessed me because of you.

00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:17.020
 Name your wages, and I will give it.

00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:18.680
 Jacob said to him,

00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:23.320
 You yourself know how I have served you, and how your livestock has fared with me.

00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:29.039
 For you had little before I came, and it has increased abundantly, and the Lord has blessed you wherever I turned.

00:01:29.679 --> 00:01:32.259
 But now when shall I provide for my own household also?

00:01:33.299 --> 00:01:33.780
 He said,

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:34.879
 What shall I give you?

00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:36.019
 And Jacob said,

00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:37.280
 You shall not give me anything.

00:01:37.819 --> 00:01:40.979
 If you will do this for me, I will again pasture your flock and keep it.

00:01:41.459 --> 00:01:46.019
 Let me pass through all your flock today, removing from it every speckled and spotted sheep,

00:01:46.099 --> 00:01:49.399
 and every black lamb, and the spotted and speckled among the goats,

00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:51.240
 and they shall be my wages.

00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:55.760
 So my honesty will answer for me later when you come to look into my wages with you.

00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.140
 Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats,

00:01:59.340 --> 00:02:03.120
 and black among the sheep, if found with me, shall be counted stolen.

00:02:03.980 --> 00:02:04.460
 Laban said,

00:02:04.540 --> 00:02:06.060
 Good, let it be as you've said.

00:02:06.900 --> 00:02:10.280
 But that day Laban removed the male goats that were striped and spotted,

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:12.780
 and all the female goats that were speckled and spotted,

00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:14.580
 every one that had white on it,

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:16.080
 and every lamb that was black,

00:02:16.420 --> 00:02:17.939
 and put them in the charge of his sons.

00:02:17.939 --> 00:02:21.840
 And he set a distance of three days' journey between himself and Jacob,

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:24.659
 and Jacob pastured the rest of Laban's flock.

00:02:25.740 --> 00:02:29.699
 Then Laban took fresh sticks of poplar and almond and plain trees,

00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:31.319
 and peeled white streaks in them,

00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:33.319
 exposing the white of the sticks.

00:02:34.020 --> 00:02:37.319
 He set the sticks that he had peeled in front of the flocks in the troughs,

00:02:37.819 --> 00:02:39.079
 that is, the watering places,

00:02:39.500 --> 00:02:40.800
 where the flocks came to drink.

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:43.479
 And since they bred when they came to drink,

00:02:43.900 --> 00:02:45.740
 the flocks bred in front of the sticks.

00:02:45.740 --> 00:02:49.560
 And so the flocks brought forth striped, speckled, and spotted.

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:52.500
 And Jacob separated the lambs,

00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:54.939
 and set the faces of the flocks toward the striped,

00:02:54.980 --> 00:02:56.560
 and all the black in the flock of Laban.

00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:58.600
 He put his own droves apart,

00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:00.580
 and did not put them with Laban's flock.

00:03:01.219 --> 00:03:03.120
 Whenever the stronger of the flock were breeding,

00:03:03.340 --> 00:03:06.500
 Jacob would lay the sticks in the troughs before the eyes of the flock,

00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:08.939
 that they might breed among the sticks.

00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:10.820
 But for the feebler of the flock,

00:03:10.920 --> 00:03:11.879
 he would not lay them there.

00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:14.139
 So the feebler would be Laban's,

00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:15.740
 and the stronger Jacob's.

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:17.879
 Thus the man increased greatly,

00:03:18.060 --> 00:03:19.579
 and had large flocks,

00:03:19.859 --> 00:03:21.560
 female servants, and male servants,

00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:22.740
 and camels, and donkeys.

00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:26.359
 Now Jacob heard that the sons of Laban were saying,

00:03:26.939 --> 00:03:28.800
 Jacob has taken all that was our father's,

00:03:29.019 --> 00:03:30.120
 and from what was our father's,

00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:31.419
 he has gained all this wealth.

00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:35.280
 And Jacob saw that Laban did not regard him with favor as before.

00:03:35.780 --> 00:03:37.319
 Then the Lord said to Jacob,

00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:39.340
 Return to the land of your fathers,

00:03:39.539 --> 00:03:40.299
 and to your kindred,

00:03:40.579 --> 00:03:42.079
 and I will be with you.

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:43.979
 So Jacob sent,

00:03:44.099 --> 00:03:46.919
 and called Rachel and Leah into the field where his flock was,

00:03:46.959 --> 00:03:47.539
 and said to them,

00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:51.019
 I see that your father does not regard me with favor as he did before,

00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:53.859
 but the God of my father has been with me.

00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:56.859
 You know that I have served your father with all my strength,

00:03:56.900 --> 00:03:58.579
 and yet your father has cheated me,

00:03:58.620 --> 00:04:00.299
 and changed my wages ten times.

00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:03.419
 But God did not permit him to harm me.

00:04:04.060 --> 00:04:05.859
 If he said the spotted shall be your wages,

00:04:05.860 --> 00:04:07.220
 then all the flock bore spotted.

00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:09.460
 And if he said the striped shall be your wages,

00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:10.920
 then all the flock bore striped.

00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:14.060
 Thus God has taken away the livestock of your father,

00:04:14.380 --> 00:04:15.520
 and given them to me.

00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:18.040
 In the breeding season of the flock,

00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:19.060
 I lifted up my eyes,

00:04:19.100 --> 00:04:20.080
 and saw in a dream

00:04:20.080 --> 00:04:22.040
 that the goats that mated with the flock

00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:23.980
 were striped, spotted, and mottled.

00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.020
 Then the angel of the Lord said to me in the dream,

00:04:27.259 --> 00:04:27.560
 Jacob,

00:04:28.180 --> 00:04:28.580
 and I said,

00:04:28.620 --> 00:04:29.160
 Here I am.

00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:30.400
 And he said,

00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:31.860
 Lift up your eyes and see.

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:34.060
 All the goats that mate with the flock

00:04:34.060 --> 00:04:35.819
 are striped, spotted, and mottled.

00:04:36.300 --> 00:04:39.680
 For I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:41.560
 I am the God of Bethel,

00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:43.800
 where you anointed a pillar and made a vow to me.

00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:45.379
 Now arise,

00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:46.759
 go out from this land,

00:04:46.939 --> 00:04:48.680
 and return to the land of your kindred.

00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:51.699
 Then Rachel and Leah answered him and said to him,

00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.360
 Is there any portion or inheritance left to us

00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:55.279
 in our father's house?

00:04:55.899 --> 00:04:57.579
 Are we not regarded by him as foreigners?

00:04:58.199 --> 00:04:59.340
 For he has sold us,

00:04:59.339 --> 00:05:01.339
 and he has indeed devoured our money.

00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.179
 All the wealth that God has taken away from our father

00:05:04.179 --> 00:05:06.119
 belongs to us and to our children.

00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:07.299
 Now then,

00:05:07.359 --> 00:05:08.699
 whatever God has said to you,

00:05:09.039 --> 00:05:09.219
 do.

00:05:10.159 --> 00:05:13.199
 So Jacob arose and set his sons and his wives on camels.

00:05:13.739 --> 00:05:15.239
 He drove away all his livestock,

00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:17.059
 all his property that he had gained,

00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:18.919
 the livestock in his possession

00:05:18.919 --> 00:05:20.779
 that he had acquired in Paddan Aram,

00:05:21.099 --> 00:05:23.599
 to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.

00:05:24.459 --> 00:05:26.099
 Laban had gone to shear his sheep,

00:05:26.100 --> 00:05:29.320
 and Rachel stole her father's household gods.

00:05:30.140 --> 00:05:31.820
 And Jacob tricked Laban the Aramean

00:05:31.820 --> 00:05:33.580
 by not telling him that he intended to flee.

00:05:34.520 --> 00:05:35.920
 He fled with all that he had,

00:05:36.260 --> 00:05:37.960
 and arose and crossed the Euphrates,

00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:40.939
 and set his face toward the hill country of Gilead.

00:05:41.960 --> 00:05:43.820
 When it was told Laban on the third day

00:05:43.820 --> 00:05:45.180
 that Jacob had fled,

00:05:45.640 --> 00:05:46.980
 he took his kinsmen with him

00:05:46.980 --> 00:05:48.840
 and pursued him for seven days,

00:05:49.140 --> 00:05:50.580
 and followed close after him

00:05:50.580 --> 00:05:51.980
 into the hill country of Gilead.

00:05:52.660 --> 00:05:54.939
 But God came to Laban the Aramean

00:05:54.939 --> 00:05:55.920
 in a dream by night.

00:05:56.280 --> 00:05:57.020
 And said to him,

00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:59.580
 Be careful not to say anything to Jacob,

00:05:59.860 --> 00:06:00.939
 either good or bad.

00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:03.340
 And Laban overtook Jacob.

00:06:04.020 --> 00:06:05.760
 Now Jacob had pitched his tent

00:06:05.760 --> 00:06:06.460
 in the hill country,

00:06:06.900 --> 00:06:08.180
 and Laban with his kinsmen

00:06:08.180 --> 00:06:10.140
 pitched tents in the hill country of Gilead.

00:06:10.640 --> 00:06:11.939
 And Laban said to Jacob,

00:06:12.180 --> 00:06:13.160
 What have you done

00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:14.420
 that you have tricked me

00:06:14.420 --> 00:06:15.520
 and driven away my daughters

00:06:15.520 --> 00:06:16.780
 like captives of the sword?

00:06:17.460 --> 00:06:18.720
 Why did you flee secretly

00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:20.400
 and trick me and not tell me

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:21.580
 so that I might send you away

00:06:21.580 --> 00:06:22.820
 with mirth and songs,

00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:24.379
 tambourine and lyre?

00:06:24.379 --> 00:06:26.420
 And why did you not permit me

00:06:26.420 --> 00:06:28.159
 to kiss my sons and my daughters farewell?

00:06:28.819 --> 00:06:30.279
 Now you have done foolishly.

00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.420
 It is in my power to do you harm.

00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:34.079
 But the God of your father

00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:35.300
 spoke to me last night,

00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:35.639
 saying,

00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:37.600
 Be careful not to say anything to Jacob,

00:06:37.980 --> 00:06:38.959
 either good or bad.

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:40.620
 And now you have gone away

00:06:40.620 --> 00:06:41.659
 because you longed greatly

00:06:41.659 --> 00:06:42.680
 for your father's house,

00:06:42.779 --> 00:06:44.579
 but why did you steal my gods?

00:06:45.540 --> 00:06:47.040
 Jacob answered and said to Laban,

00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:48.540
 Because I was afraid,

00:06:48.660 --> 00:06:49.400
 for I thought that you would

00:06:49.400 --> 00:06:51.080
 take your daughters from me by force.

00:06:51.780 --> 00:06:53.600
 Anyone with whom you find your gods

00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:54.660
 shall not live.

00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:56.340
 In the presence of our kinsmen,

00:06:56.420 --> 00:06:57.300
 point out what I have

00:06:57.300 --> 00:06:58.439
 that is yours and take it.

00:06:59.020 --> 00:07:00.400
 Now Jacob did not know

00:07:00.400 --> 00:07:01.700
 that Rachel had stolen them.

00:07:02.860 --> 00:07:04.780
 So Laban went into Jacob's tent

00:07:04.780 --> 00:07:05.740
 and into Leah's tent

00:07:05.740 --> 00:07:06.400
 and into the tent

00:07:06.400 --> 00:07:07.560
 of the two female servants,

00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:08.820
 but he did not find them.

00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:10.780
 And he went out of Leah's tent

00:07:10.780 --> 00:07:12.220
 and entered Rachel's.

00:07:12.939 --> 00:07:14.040
 Now Rachel had taken

00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:14.900
 the household gods

00:07:14.900 --> 00:07:16.460
 and put them in the camel's saddle

00:07:16.460 --> 00:07:17.860
 and sat on them.

00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:19.960
 Laban felt all about the tent,

00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:21.180
 but he did not find them.

00:07:21.580 --> 00:07:22.620
 And she said to her father,

00:07:23.220 --> 00:07:24.520
 Let not my Lord be angry

00:07:24.520 --> 00:07:26.160
 that I cannot rise before you,

00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:27.900
 for the way of women is upon me.

00:07:28.580 --> 00:07:29.379
 So he searched,

00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.379
 but did not find the household gods.

00:07:32.379 --> 00:07:33.879
 Then Jacob became angry

00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:35.020
 and berated Laban.

00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:36.600
 And Jacob said to Laban,

00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:37.920
 What is my offense?

00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:39.460
 What is my sin

00:07:39.460 --> 00:07:40.759
 that you have hotly pursued me?

00:07:41.320 --> 00:07:41.879
 For you have felt

00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:42.900
 through all my goods,

00:07:42.900 --> 00:07:43.920
 and what have you found

00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:45.180
 of all your household goods.

00:07:45.520 --> 00:07:46.879
 Set it here before my kinsmen

00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:47.640
 and your kinsmen,

00:07:47.819 --> 00:07:48.699
 that you may decide

00:07:48.699 --> 00:07:49.480
 between us two.

00:07:50.100 --> 00:07:51.360
 These twenty years

00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:52.360
 I have been with you.

00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:54.240
 Your ewes and your female goats

00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:55.280
 have not miscarried.

00:07:55.580 --> 00:07:56.140
 I have not eaten

00:07:56.140 --> 00:07:57.460
 the rams of your flocks.

00:07:57.840 --> 00:07:59.520
 What was torn by wild beasts

00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:00.680
 I did not bring to you.

00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:02.020
 I bore the loss of it myself.

00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.400
 From my hand you required of it,

00:08:04.660 --> 00:08:05.800
 whether it's stolen by day

00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:06.819
 or stolen by night.

00:08:07.259 --> 00:08:08.139
 There I was,

00:08:08.200 --> 00:08:09.819
 by day the heat consumed me,

00:08:10.100 --> 00:08:11.280
 and the cold by night,

00:08:11.280 --> 00:08:13.560
 and my sleep fled from my eyes.

00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:14.660
 These twenty years

00:08:14.660 --> 00:08:15.699
 I have been in your house.

00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:17.579
 I served you fourteen years

00:08:17.579 --> 00:08:18.399
 for your two daughters,

00:08:18.699 --> 00:08:20.259
 and six years for your flock,

00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:21.579
 and you have changed

00:08:21.579 --> 00:08:23.040
 my wages ten times.

00:08:24.139 --> 00:08:25.579
 If the God of my father,

00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:27.220
 the God of Abraham,

00:08:27.740 --> 00:08:28.939
 and the fear of Isaac

00:08:28.939 --> 00:08:30.540
 had not been on my side,

00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:32.460
 surely now you would have

00:08:32.460 --> 00:08:33.539
 sent me away empty-handed.

00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:35.879
 God saw my affliction

00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:37.720
 and the labor of my hands,

00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:39.820
 and he rebuked you last night.

00:08:40.820 --> 00:08:41.580
 Then Laban answered

00:08:41.580 --> 00:08:42.320
 and said to Jacob,

00:08:42.920 --> 00:08:44.060
 The daughters are my daughters,

00:08:44.560 --> 00:08:45.820
 the children are my children,

00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:47.520
 the flocks are my flocks,

00:08:47.700 --> 00:08:49.420
 and all that you see is mine.

00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:51.060
 But what can I do this day

00:08:51.060 --> 00:08:52.000
 for these my daughters,

00:08:52.340 --> 00:08:53.140
 or for their children

00:08:53.140 --> 00:08:53.900
 whom they have borne?

00:08:54.520 --> 00:08:55.020
 Come now,

00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:56.360
 let us make a covenant,

00:08:56.640 --> 00:08:57.060
 you and I,

00:08:57.620 --> 00:08:58.500
 and it will be a witness

00:08:58.500 --> 00:08:59.340
 between you and me.

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.420
 So Jacob took a stone

00:09:01.420 --> 00:09:02.879
 and set it up as a pillar.

00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:04.880
 And Jacob said to his kinsmen,

00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:05.800
 Gather stones.

00:09:06.479 --> 00:09:07.279
 And they took stones

00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:08.019
 and made a heap,

00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:09.979
 and there they ate by the heap.

00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:11.719
 Laban called it

00:09:11.719 --> 00:09:13.579
 Jagar Sahadutha,

00:09:14.199 --> 00:09:15.479
 but Jacob called it Gilead.

00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:17.000
 And Jacob said,

00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:18.019
 This heap is a witness

00:09:18.019 --> 00:09:19.199
 between you and me today.

00:09:19.359 --> 00:09:20.459
 Therefore he named it

00:09:20.459 --> 00:09:21.879
 Gilead and Mizpah.

00:09:22.359 --> 00:09:22.899
 For he said,

00:09:22.959 --> 00:09:23.659
 The Lord watched

00:09:23.659 --> 00:09:24.500
 between you and me,

00:09:24.839 --> 00:09:25.500
 and when we are out

00:09:25.500 --> 00:09:26.359
 of one another's sight,

00:09:27.079 --> 00:09:28.359
 if you oppress my daughters,

00:09:28.359 --> 00:09:29.679
 or if you take wives

00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:30.779
 besides my daughters,

00:09:30.979 --> 00:09:32.139
 although no one is with us,

00:09:32.479 --> 00:09:34.159
 see, God is witness

00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:35.059
 between you and me.

00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:37.179
 Then Laban said to Jacob,

00:09:37.339 --> 00:09:38.519
 See this heap and the pillar

00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:39.500
 which I have set

00:09:39.500 --> 00:09:40.279
 between you and me.

00:09:40.719 --> 00:09:41.919
 This heap is a witness,

00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:43.219
 and the pillar is a witness,

00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:44.899
 that I will not pass over

00:09:44.899 --> 00:09:45.779
 this heap to you,

00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:47.240
 and you will not pass over

00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:48.259
 this heap and this pillar

00:09:48.259 --> 00:09:49.439
 to me to do harm.

00:09:50.299 --> 00:09:51.120
 The God of Abraham

00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:52.319
 and the God of Nahor,

00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:53.659
 the God of their father,

00:09:53.819 --> 00:09:54.719
 judge between us.

00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:56.439
 So Jacob swore

00:09:56.439 --> 00:09:58.579
 by the fear of his father Isaac,

00:09:58.939 --> 00:10:00.479
 and Jacob offered a sacrifice

00:10:00.479 --> 00:10:01.379
 in the hill country

00:10:01.379 --> 00:10:02.740
 and called his kinsmen

00:10:02.740 --> 00:10:03.439
 to eat bread.

00:10:03.959 --> 00:10:04.679
 They ate bread

00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:05.379
 and spent the night

00:10:05.379 --> 00:10:06.079
 in the hill country.

00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:07.779
 Early in the morning,

00:10:07.899 --> 00:10:08.459
 Laban arose

00:10:08.459 --> 00:10:09.699
 and kissed his grandchildren

00:10:09.699 --> 00:10:10.679
 and his daughters

00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:12.059
 and blessed them.

00:10:12.599 --> 00:10:13.759
 Then Laban departed

00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:15.679
 and returned home.

00:10:17.599 --> 00:10:18.419
 Grass withers

00:10:18.419 --> 00:10:19.319
 and the flower fades,

00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:20.539
 but the word of the Lord

00:10:20.539 --> 00:10:21.899
 endures forever.

00:10:21.899 --> 00:10:22.379
 Father,

00:10:23.100 --> 00:10:25.199
 we pray now

00:10:25.199 --> 00:10:26.179
 as we

00:10:26.179 --> 00:10:28.939
 open up this passage

00:10:28.939 --> 00:10:29.759
 and look into

00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:31.120
 your great faithfulness

00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:32.000
 to your promises.

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:32.379
 God,

00:10:32.439 --> 00:10:33.439
 would you remind us again

00:10:33.439 --> 00:10:34.559
 of your commitment

00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.000
 to provide

00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:36.559
 and to protect

00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:37.159
 for your people,

00:10:37.299 --> 00:10:38.459
 especially so in Christ.

00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:39.559
 We pray this in Jesus' name.

00:10:40.220 --> 00:10:40.459
 Amen.

00:10:41.459 --> 00:10:42.519
 You may be seated.

00:10:43.699 --> 00:10:44.860
 All God's people said amen.

00:10:44.860 --> 00:10:44.959
 Amen.

00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:49.139
 I wonder if you paid attention

00:10:49.139 --> 00:10:51.700
 to what we just sang together.

00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:54.660
 No power of hell,

00:10:55.160 --> 00:10:56.360
 no scheme of man

00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:58.060
 can ever pluck me

00:10:58.060 --> 00:10:59.840
 from his hand

00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:01.519
 till he returns

00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:02.460
 or calls me home.

00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:04.440
 Here in the power of Christ

00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:05.160
 we stand.

00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:06.700
 That is a song of confidence,

00:11:06.900 --> 00:11:07.300
 isn't it?

00:11:08.300 --> 00:11:09.019
 And before that,

00:11:09.139 --> 00:11:09.620
 we sang,

00:11:09.940 --> 00:11:10.540
 when I fear

00:11:10.540 --> 00:11:11.800
 my faith will fail,

00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:14.139
 Christ will hold me fast.

00:11:14.139 --> 00:11:16.220
 When the tempter

00:11:16.220 --> 00:11:17.080
 would prevail,

00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:20.080
 he will hold me fast.

00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:21.080
 I wonder if you caught

00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:21.939
 the message

00:11:21.939 --> 00:11:22.899
 of the songs

00:11:22.899 --> 00:11:24.019
 that we sang together

00:11:24.019 --> 00:11:24.919
 this morning.

00:11:25.059 --> 00:11:26.059
 And maybe a better question

00:11:26.059 --> 00:11:26.419
 would be,

00:11:26.500 --> 00:11:27.919
 I wonder if you

00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:29.000
 believe it.

00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:31.439
 There is a

00:11:31.439 --> 00:11:32.980
 deep confidence

00:11:32.980 --> 00:11:33.740
 in the heart

00:11:33.740 --> 00:11:34.699
 of a believer,

00:11:35.059 --> 00:11:36.039
 in the heart of a Christian

00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:37.379
 that allows us

00:11:37.379 --> 00:11:38.259
 to sing

00:11:38.259 --> 00:11:39.679
 songs like that,

00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:41.100
 sing words like that,

00:11:41.179 --> 00:11:41.799
 and actually

00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:42.960
 mean them

00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:44.039
 and believe them

00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:45.339
 with all of our heart

00:11:45.339 --> 00:11:46.039
 that truly

00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:47.319
 no power of hell

00:11:47.319 --> 00:11:48.159
 can overcome you

00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:48.939
 if you're in Christ.

00:11:50.099 --> 00:11:51.620
 No scheme of man

00:11:51.620 --> 00:11:53.219
 can overcome you

00:11:53.219 --> 00:11:54.679
 if you are in Christ.

00:11:55.659 --> 00:11:56.599
 And even our own

00:11:56.599 --> 00:11:57.959
 fumbling and bumbling

00:11:57.959 --> 00:11:59.039
 along the way

00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:00.959
 cannot disqualify

00:12:00.959 --> 00:12:02.719
 you if you are in Christ.

00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:05.360
 He will hold you fast.

00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:06.379
 Here's the main message

00:12:06.379 --> 00:12:07.199
 from our passage

00:12:07.199 --> 00:12:07.740
 this morning.

00:12:07.839 --> 00:12:08.539
 I know it's lengthy

00:12:08.539 --> 00:12:09.860
 and so we'll get right to it.

00:12:10.179 --> 00:12:11.259
 And it's the root

00:12:11.259 --> 00:12:13.100
 of all Christian confidence.

00:12:13.220 --> 00:12:13.620
 Here it is.

00:12:15.340 --> 00:12:16.960
 God is so

00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:18.419
 powerfully

00:12:18.419 --> 00:12:19.659
 for you

00:12:19.659 --> 00:12:20.379
 in Christ

00:12:20.379 --> 00:12:23.120
 that no one

00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:24.039
 and nothing

00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.039
 can derail

00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:27.360
 his plans

00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:29.100
 to bless you

00:12:29.100 --> 00:12:31.179
 and to protect you

00:12:31.179 --> 00:12:32.860
 both in this life

00:12:32.860 --> 00:12:34.019
 and in the life to come.

00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:36.399
 I'll say that again.

00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:37.819
 God is so

00:12:37.819 --> 00:12:39.000
 powerfully

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:40.019
 for you

00:12:40.019 --> 00:12:40.799
 in Christ

00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:42.000
 that nothing

00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:43.100
 and no one

00:12:43.100 --> 00:12:43.799
 can overcome

00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:44.819
 his plans

00:12:44.819 --> 00:12:46.759
 to bless you

00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:47.620
 and to protect you

00:12:47.620 --> 00:12:48.600
 both in this life

00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:49.759
 and in the life

00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:50.980
 to come.

00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:51.620
 Or we can say it

00:12:51.620 --> 00:12:52.399
 in the words of Paul

00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:53.360
 if God is for us

00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:54.720
 who can be against us?

00:12:56.139 --> 00:12:57.500
 If God has given us

00:12:57.500 --> 00:12:58.360
 his own son

00:12:58.360 --> 00:12:59.459
 how will he not also

00:12:59.459 --> 00:13:00.000
 with him

00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:01.460
 give us all things?

00:13:02.840 --> 00:13:04.519
 This is Christian confidence.

00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:05.819
 And I realize

00:13:05.819 --> 00:13:07.139
 we're a far way off

00:13:07.139 --> 00:13:07.740
 a long way off

00:13:07.740 --> 00:13:08.740
 from the coming of Christ

00:13:08.740 --> 00:13:09.620
 here in our passage

00:13:09.620 --> 00:13:10.460
 in the Old Testament

00:13:10.460 --> 00:13:11.179
 and Genesis

00:13:11.179 --> 00:13:12.199
 but even so

00:13:12.199 --> 00:13:13.139
 this morning

00:13:13.139 --> 00:13:13.679
 what we see

00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:14.319
 is that Jacob

00:13:14.319 --> 00:13:15.399
 gets a taste

00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:16.799
 of this deep commitment

00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:17.620
 of God

00:13:17.620 --> 00:13:18.579
 towards his people.

00:13:19.659 --> 00:13:20.639
 And what we've seen

00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:21.500
 over the past

00:13:21.500 --> 00:13:22.139
 several weeks

00:13:22.139 --> 00:13:22.819
 is that God

00:13:22.819 --> 00:13:23.759
 has given Jacob

00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:24.720
 his promises.

00:13:25.819 --> 00:13:26.480
 God has committed

00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:28.039
 to be for Jacob

00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:29.720
 and although Jacob

00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:30.340
 is fumbling

00:13:30.340 --> 00:13:30.860
 and bumbling

00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:31.840
 his way through

00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:32.600
 even so

00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:33.240
 what we see

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:33.860
 is that God

00:13:33.860 --> 00:13:35.060
 remains faithful

00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:36.519
 to his promises

00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:37.480
 and at every step

00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:37.960
 the Lord

00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:39.200
 holds him fast.

00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:40.580
 At every step

00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:40.940
 the Lord

00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:42.060
 continues to provide

00:13:42.060 --> 00:13:43.040
 for Jacob

00:13:43.040 --> 00:13:44.000
 and bless Jacob.

00:13:44.060 --> 00:13:44.720
 At every step

00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:45.100
 the Lord

00:13:45.100 --> 00:13:46.860
 continues to secure

00:13:46.860 --> 00:13:48.399
 and to protect Jacob

00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:49.320
 every step

00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:50.399
 of the way.

00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:51.240
 So let's take a look

00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:51.759
 and what we see

00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:52.300
 this morning

00:13:52.300 --> 00:13:54.259
 are two ways

00:13:54.259 --> 00:13:54.620
 that God

00:13:54.620 --> 00:13:55.519
 blesses his people.

00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:57.240
 This will be our outline

00:13:57.240 --> 00:13:57.980
 if you're taking notes.

00:13:58.100 --> 00:13:58.680
 Two ways

00:13:58.680 --> 00:13:59.279
 that God

00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:00.040
 blesses

00:14:00.040 --> 00:14:01.080
 his people.

00:14:01.220 --> 00:14:01.740
 Number one

00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:02.560
 first God

00:14:02.560 --> 00:14:03.680
 blesses his people

00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:04.779
 by providing

00:14:04.779 --> 00:14:06.299
 for his people.

00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:08.100
 God blesses

00:14:08.100 --> 00:14:08.600
 his people

00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:10.259
 by providing

00:14:10.259 --> 00:14:11.779
 and we see

00:14:11.779 --> 00:14:12.779
 this provision

00:14:12.779 --> 00:14:14.340
 in two directions

00:14:14.340 --> 00:14:14.840
 don't we?

00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:15.620
 God provides

00:14:15.620 --> 00:14:16.620
 to his people

00:14:16.620 --> 00:14:17.080
 we'll see that

00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:17.680
 in just a moment

00:14:17.680 --> 00:14:19.220
 but we also see

00:14:19.220 --> 00:14:20.279
 that God provides

00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:21.120
 to others

00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:22.899
 through his people

00:14:22.899 --> 00:14:24.620
 and we see

00:14:24.620 --> 00:14:25.159
 that provision

00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:26.360
 through Jacob

00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:26.740
 don't we?

00:14:26.779 --> 00:14:27.220
 Here at the start

00:14:27.220 --> 00:14:27.779
 of the passage

00:14:27.779 --> 00:14:28.139
 look there

00:14:28.139 --> 00:14:28.840
 starting in verse

00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:29.840
 25

00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:30.560
 as we come

00:14:30.560 --> 00:14:31.600
 to this section

00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:32.139
 of Genesis

00:14:32.139 --> 00:14:33.440
 Jacob has served

00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:34.139
 Laban for about

00:14:34.139 --> 00:14:35.540
 20 years now

00:14:35.540 --> 00:14:37.139
 and understandably

00:14:37.139 --> 00:14:37.899
 he is ready

00:14:37.899 --> 00:14:38.639
 to leave

00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:39.200
 right?

00:14:39.280 --> 00:14:39.759
 You ever spend

00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:40.840
 enough time

00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:41.580
 with your in-laws

00:14:41.580 --> 00:14:42.200
 and your family

00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:43.139
 and all of a sudden

00:14:43.139 --> 00:14:44.200
 the time comes

00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:44.879
 it's time to go

00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:45.200
 right?

00:14:45.940 --> 00:14:46.680
 And so he says

00:14:46.680 --> 00:14:47.180
 to Laban

00:14:47.180 --> 00:14:48.280
 send me away

00:14:48.280 --> 00:14:48.820
 that I may go

00:14:48.820 --> 00:14:49.540
 to my own home

00:14:49.540 --> 00:14:50.340
 and my own country

00:14:50.340 --> 00:14:51.379
 give me my wives

00:14:51.379 --> 00:14:51.680
 give me

00:14:51.680 --> 00:14:52.680
 give me my children

00:14:52.680 --> 00:14:53.940
 for whom I've served you

00:14:53.940 --> 00:14:55.060
 that I may go

00:14:55.060 --> 00:14:55.940
 for you know

00:14:55.940 --> 00:14:56.580
 the service

00:14:56.580 --> 00:14:57.740
 that I have given you

00:14:57.740 --> 00:14:58.879
 it is time to go

00:14:58.879 --> 00:14:59.360
 but look at what

00:14:59.360 --> 00:14:59.940
 Laban says

00:14:59.940 --> 00:15:01.899
 Laban responds

00:15:01.899 --> 00:15:02.259
 and he says

00:15:02.259 --> 00:15:03.120
 not so fast

00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:05.180
 in fact I have learned

00:15:05.180 --> 00:15:06.120
 by divination

00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:07.340
 that the Lord

00:15:07.340 --> 00:15:08.340
 has blessed me

00:15:08.340 --> 00:15:10.500
 because of you

00:15:10.500 --> 00:15:11.759
 so name your wages

00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:13.299
 and I will give it

00:15:13.299 --> 00:15:14.139
 now if I'm Jacob

00:15:14.139 --> 00:15:14.600
 right?

00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:15.879
 I've heard that line

00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:16.980
 before hasn't he?

00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:18.500
 When did he hear

00:15:18.500 --> 00:15:19.200
 that line before?

00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:20.700
 If you remember

00:15:20.700 --> 00:15:21.659
 from last time

00:15:21.659 --> 00:15:22.700
 the first time

00:15:22.700 --> 00:15:23.740
 that Laban said

00:15:23.740 --> 00:15:24.200
 give me

00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:24.940
 name your wages

00:15:24.940 --> 00:15:25.519
 and I'll give it

00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:26.060
 what was it?

00:15:26.059 --> 00:15:27.919
 It was when Jacob

00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:29.019
 said I will work

00:15:29.019 --> 00:15:29.979
 for seven years

00:15:29.979 --> 00:15:30.679
 for your daughter

00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:31.239
 Rachel

00:15:31.239 --> 00:15:31.939
 and did Laban

00:15:31.939 --> 00:15:32.559
 keep his end

00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:33.379
 of the agreement?

00:15:34.099 --> 00:15:35.199
 By no means

00:15:35.199 --> 00:15:37.059
 he agreed to the agreement

00:15:37.059 --> 00:15:37.979
 and he gave him

00:15:37.979 --> 00:15:38.979
 instead Leah

00:15:38.979 --> 00:15:39.799
 right?

00:15:40.659 --> 00:15:41.439
 So Jacob works

00:15:41.439 --> 00:15:42.379
 for 20 years

00:15:42.379 --> 00:15:42.979
 for Laban

00:15:42.979 --> 00:15:43.819
 and now at the end

00:15:43.819 --> 00:15:44.399
 of it Laban

00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:45.979
 is still unwilling

00:15:45.979 --> 00:15:47.659
 to let Jacob go

00:15:47.659 --> 00:15:48.759
 and we see clearly

00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:49.779
 why don't we?

00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:51.319
 The Lord

00:15:51.319 --> 00:15:52.500
 is blessing

00:15:52.500 --> 00:15:53.500
 Laban

00:15:53.500 --> 00:15:54.940
 because

00:15:54.940 --> 00:15:56.360
 of Jacob

00:15:56.360 --> 00:15:58.700
 Jacob's presence

00:15:58.700 --> 00:15:59.559
 there with Laban

00:15:59.559 --> 00:16:00.320
 is a blessing

00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:00.960
 to him

00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:01.919
 20 years

00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:02.639
 of blessing

00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:03.299
 20 years

00:16:03.299 --> 00:16:04.460
 of prosperity

00:16:04.460 --> 00:16:05.200
 20 years

00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:06.259
 of abundance

00:16:06.259 --> 00:16:07.039
 and Laban

00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:07.500
 is now

00:16:07.500 --> 00:16:08.360
 20 years

00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:09.440
 better off

00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:09.919
 than he was

00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:10.600
 before Jacob

00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:11.379
 came around

00:16:11.379 --> 00:16:12.240
 and church

00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:12.679
 we shouldn't

00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:13.419
 be surprised

00:16:13.419 --> 00:16:14.059
 at this

00:16:14.059 --> 00:16:14.740
 because God

00:16:14.740 --> 00:16:15.700
 is committed

00:16:15.700 --> 00:16:16.759
 to do this

00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:17.740
 through his people

00:16:17.740 --> 00:16:18.200
 isn't he?

00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:19.700
 God

00:16:19.700 --> 00:16:20.539
 is often

00:16:20.539 --> 00:16:21.220
 committed

00:16:21.220 --> 00:16:22.100
 to provide

00:16:22.100 --> 00:16:22.960
 for others

00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:23.600
 and bless

00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:24.080
 others

00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:25.540
 through his people

00:16:25.540 --> 00:16:25.980
 I mean you think

00:16:25.980 --> 00:16:26.519
 about the promise

00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:27.120
 that he made

00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:28.259
 to Abraham

00:16:28.259 --> 00:16:29.000
 what does he say?

00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:29.940
 He says

00:16:29.940 --> 00:16:31.300
 I will bless you

00:16:31.300 --> 00:16:32.940
 and in you

00:16:32.940 --> 00:16:34.259
 all the nations

00:16:34.259 --> 00:16:35.040
 of the world

00:16:35.040 --> 00:16:36.820
 will be blessed

00:16:36.820 --> 00:16:37.279
 and of course

00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:37.960
 that's a promise

00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:38.620
 that's fulfilled

00:16:38.620 --> 00:16:39.379
 ultimately

00:16:39.379 --> 00:16:40.860
 in Christ Jesus

00:16:40.860 --> 00:16:42.600
 Christ is the blessing

00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:43.340
 to the nations

00:16:43.340 --> 00:16:44.779
 but it's also

00:16:44.779 --> 00:16:45.340
 a promise

00:16:45.340 --> 00:16:46.120
 it's a pattern

00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:46.940
 that's extended

00:16:46.940 --> 00:16:47.899
 through the body

00:16:47.899 --> 00:16:48.860
 of Christ

00:16:48.860 --> 00:16:50.220
 God often

00:16:50.220 --> 00:16:51.340
 blesses others

00:16:51.340 --> 00:16:52.100
 through

00:16:52.100 --> 00:16:53.480
 his people

00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:54.600
 so for example

00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:56.919
 Christian employees

00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:59.259
 you ought to be

00:16:59.259 --> 00:16:59.740
 a blessing

00:16:59.740 --> 00:17:00.700
 to your employers

00:17:00.700 --> 00:17:03.419
 you ought not

00:17:03.419 --> 00:17:04.019
 join in

00:17:04.019 --> 00:17:04.620
 with the grumbling

00:17:04.620 --> 00:17:05.360
 and complaining

00:17:05.360 --> 00:17:06.539
 that often takes

00:17:06.539 --> 00:17:07.259
 place at the water

00:17:07.259 --> 00:17:07.640
 cooler

00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:09.000
 you ought not

00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:10.299
 be thinking

00:17:10.299 --> 00:17:10.839
 about ways

00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:11.980
 to cut corners

00:17:11.980 --> 00:17:13.039
 off of your work

00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.599
 and do the

00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:14.819
 minimum required

00:17:14.819 --> 00:17:15.299
 effort

00:17:15.299 --> 00:17:15.599
 no

00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:16.779
 Christians ought

00:17:16.779 --> 00:17:17.380
 to be the hardest

00:17:17.380 --> 00:17:18.339
 working employees

00:17:18.339 --> 00:17:19.259
 in the workplace

00:17:19.259 --> 00:17:21.240
 and your bosses

00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:22.299
 whether they're

00:17:22.299 --> 00:17:23.259
 excellent bosses

00:17:23.259 --> 00:17:24.319
 or lousy bosses

00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:25.000
 like Laban

00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:25.559
 your bosses

00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:26.159
 ought to

00:17:26.159 --> 00:17:26.959
 prosper

00:17:26.959 --> 00:17:27.859
 and be blessed

00:17:27.859 --> 00:17:28.759
 because of

00:17:28.759 --> 00:17:29.459
 your presence

00:17:29.459 --> 00:17:30.500
 there in the workplace

00:17:30.500 --> 00:17:30.500


00:17:31.980 --> 00:17:33.099
 Christian athletes

00:17:33.099 --> 00:17:33.639
 ought to be

00:17:33.639 --> 00:17:34.019
 the hardest

00:17:34.019 --> 00:17:34.819
 working athletes

00:17:34.819 --> 00:17:35.359
 on the team

00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:35.919
 they might not

00:17:35.919 --> 00:17:36.480
 be the best

00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:37.639
 players on the team

00:17:37.639 --> 00:17:38.419
 that's not the point

00:17:38.419 --> 00:17:40.379
 but by their attitude

00:17:40.379 --> 00:17:41.319
 by the respect

00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:42.119
 that they show

00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:43.159
 by the effort

00:17:43.159 --> 00:17:44.039
 that they give

00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:45.240
 they work hard

00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:46.259
 they bless

00:17:46.259 --> 00:17:47.099
 their coaches

00:17:47.099 --> 00:17:47.619
 they bless

00:17:47.619 --> 00:17:48.199
 their teammates

00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:49.360
 Christian neighbors

00:17:49.360 --> 00:17:51.039
 your presence

00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:51.700
 there amongst

00:17:51.700 --> 00:17:53.000
 your neighborhood

00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:53.660
 that ought to be

00:17:53.660 --> 00:17:54.160
 a blessing

00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:55.200
 to them

00:17:55.200 --> 00:17:55.580
 as you

00:17:55.580 --> 00:17:56.720
 have them over

00:17:56.720 --> 00:17:57.200
 for dinner

00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:58.100
 as you care

00:17:58.100 --> 00:17:58.860
 for their needs

00:17:58.860 --> 00:17:59.360
 as you care

00:17:59.360 --> 00:18:00.380
 for your own

00:18:00.380 --> 00:18:02.319
 God often

00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:03.259
 blesses others

00:18:03.259 --> 00:18:04.340
 by way

00:18:04.340 --> 00:18:05.120
 of blessing

00:18:05.120 --> 00:18:06.160
 his people

00:18:06.160 --> 00:18:06.720
 but we need

00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:07.240
 to back up

00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:07.740
 and understand

00:18:07.740 --> 00:18:08.340
 why

00:18:08.340 --> 00:18:10.640
 why is God

00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:11.400
 committed to do

00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:11.880
 this through

00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:12.360
 his people

00:18:12.360 --> 00:18:13.180
 why does God

00:18:13.180 --> 00:18:14.380
 intend to bless

00:18:14.380 --> 00:18:15.319
 others through

00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:16.059
 us

00:18:16.059 --> 00:18:16.480
 and it's not

00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:16.879
 just so that

00:18:16.879 --> 00:18:17.559
 we can do

00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:18.200
 some good

00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:18.500
 right

00:18:18.500 --> 00:18:18.859
 in fact

00:18:18.859 --> 00:18:19.399
 I'm sure

00:18:19.399 --> 00:18:20.259
 you realize

00:18:20.259 --> 00:18:21.099
 that anybody

00:18:21.099 --> 00:18:21.599
 can do

00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:21.859
 anything

00:18:21.859 --> 00:18:22.179
 that we've

00:18:22.179 --> 00:18:22.599
 just mentioned

00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:24.039
 there are

00:18:24.039 --> 00:18:25.179
 plenty of

00:18:25.179 --> 00:18:26.579
 excellent employees

00:18:26.579 --> 00:18:27.159
 that are not

00:18:27.159 --> 00:18:27.659
 believers

00:18:27.659 --> 00:18:28.059
 right

00:18:28.059 --> 00:18:29.700
 excellent athletes

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:30.740
 excellent neighbors

00:18:30.740 --> 00:18:31.519
 people who are

00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:32.619
 kind and generous

00:18:32.619 --> 00:18:33.500
 who do not

00:18:33.500 --> 00:18:34.460
 believe in Christ

00:18:34.460 --> 00:18:34.939
 but what's the

00:18:34.939 --> 00:18:35.359
 difference

00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:37.119
 the Christian

00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:38.639
 does all

00:18:38.639 --> 00:18:39.700
 of these things

00:18:39.700 --> 00:18:40.819
 for one

00:18:40.819 --> 00:18:41.700
 overarching

00:18:41.700 --> 00:18:42.660
 reason

00:18:42.660 --> 00:18:43.140
 it's because

00:18:43.140 --> 00:18:44.059
 in doing so

00:18:44.059 --> 00:18:45.799
 in blessing

00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:46.779
 others in this

00:18:46.779 --> 00:18:47.059
 way

00:18:47.059 --> 00:18:48.039
 we seek

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:48.660
 to bring

00:18:48.660 --> 00:18:49.319
 glory

00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:50.420
 to God

00:18:50.420 --> 00:18:52.600
 we pray

00:18:52.600 --> 00:18:53.900
 that as God

00:18:53.900 --> 00:18:54.559
 blesses others

00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:55.400
 through us

00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:55.860
 we pray

00:18:55.860 --> 00:18:56.620
 that God

00:18:56.620 --> 00:18:57.319
 might provide

00:18:57.319 --> 00:18:58.180
 a platform

00:18:58.180 --> 00:18:58.900
 for us

00:18:58.900 --> 00:18:59.400
 to open

00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:00.240
 our mouths

00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:01.059
 and share

00:19:01.059 --> 00:19:01.759
 what God

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:02.259
 has done

00:19:02.259 --> 00:19:03.240
 for us

00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:05.180
 God blesses

00:19:05.180 --> 00:19:05.420
 others

00:19:05.420 --> 00:19:06.440
 through us

00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:07.319
 in many ways

00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:08.100
 so that he

00:19:08.100 --> 00:19:08.600
 might bless

00:19:08.600 --> 00:19:08.860
 others

00:19:08.859 --> 00:19:09.479
 through us

00:19:09.479 --> 00:19:10.279
 in the most

00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:11.500
 important way

00:19:11.500 --> 00:19:12.740
 which is that

00:19:12.740 --> 00:19:13.500
 they might hear

00:19:13.500 --> 00:19:14.059
 the good news

00:19:14.059 --> 00:19:14.699
 of the gospel

00:19:14.699 --> 00:19:15.619
 of Jesus Christ

00:19:15.619 --> 00:19:16.839
 and believe

00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:17.399
 and so

00:19:17.399 --> 00:19:18.799
 when you're asked

00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:19.539
 well why do you

00:19:19.539 --> 00:19:20.339
 work the way

00:19:20.339 --> 00:19:21.099
 you do

00:19:21.099 --> 00:19:21.699
 it's because

00:19:21.699 --> 00:19:22.219
 I'm working

00:19:22.219 --> 00:19:22.839
 for the glory

00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:23.419
 of God

00:19:23.419 --> 00:19:24.899
 and why do you

00:19:24.899 --> 00:19:25.559
 why do you put

00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:26.659
 in the extra effort

00:19:26.659 --> 00:19:27.740
 when others slack off

00:19:27.740 --> 00:19:28.139
 well it's because

00:19:28.139 --> 00:19:29.199
 I want to honor him

00:19:29.199 --> 00:19:30.599
 with my effort

00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:31.399
 I want to give him

00:19:31.399 --> 00:19:32.179
 my best

00:19:32.179 --> 00:19:32.879
 why do you care

00:19:32.879 --> 00:19:33.299
 for me

00:19:33.299 --> 00:19:33.939
 the way that you

00:19:33.939 --> 00:19:34.559
 care for me

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.000
 why do you

00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:35.659
 why do you put

00:19:35.659 --> 00:19:36.259
 my needs

00:19:36.259 --> 00:19:37.259
 even above your own

00:19:37.259 --> 00:19:38.419
 well it's because

00:19:38.420 --> 00:19:39.640
 God has so

00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:40.539
 cared for me

00:19:40.539 --> 00:19:41.500
 in Christ

00:19:41.500 --> 00:19:42.840
 that his love

00:19:42.840 --> 00:19:43.360
 for me

00:19:43.360 --> 00:19:44.320
 overflows in

00:19:44.320 --> 00:19:44.779
 my love

00:19:44.779 --> 00:19:45.420
 for you

00:19:45.420 --> 00:19:47.460
 and we're called

00:19:47.460 --> 00:19:48.039
 to let our light

00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:49.180
 shine before others

00:19:49.180 --> 00:19:49.820
 so that they may

00:19:49.820 --> 00:19:50.759
 see your good

00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:51.500
 deeds

00:19:51.500 --> 00:19:52.140
 but don't stop

00:19:52.140 --> 00:19:52.460
 there

00:19:52.460 --> 00:19:54.039
 and give glory

00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:55.259
 to your father

00:19:55.259 --> 00:19:56.640
 who is in heaven

00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:57.259
 so we see

00:19:57.259 --> 00:19:57.900
 God is

00:19:57.900 --> 00:19:59.140
 committed to

00:19:59.140 --> 00:20:00.360
 use his people

00:20:00.360 --> 00:20:01.019
 to bless others

00:20:01.019 --> 00:20:01.660
 around them

00:20:01.660 --> 00:20:03.000
 in order that

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:04.500
 opportunity

00:20:04.500 --> 00:20:05.480
 may be given

00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:06.720
 to share

00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:08.259
 the good news

00:20:08.259 --> 00:20:09.019
 of the gospel

00:20:09.019 --> 00:20:11.359
 so Jacob says

00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:12.839
 Laban you know

00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:13.839
 how I've served you

00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:14.940
 and you know

00:20:14.940 --> 00:20:15.720
 how your livestock

00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:16.819
 has fared with me

00:20:16.819 --> 00:20:17.480
 you had little

00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:18.240
 before I came

00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:18.660
 and look what

00:20:18.660 --> 00:20:19.279
 you have now

00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:19.960
 it's increased

00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:20.759
 abundantly

00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:21.619
 and the Lord

00:20:21.619 --> 00:20:22.660
 has blessed you

00:20:22.660 --> 00:20:23.980
 wherever I turned

00:20:23.980 --> 00:20:25.579
 but now when

00:20:25.579 --> 00:20:26.180
 shall I provide

00:20:26.180 --> 00:20:26.779
 for my own

00:20:26.779 --> 00:20:27.480
 household

00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:28.339
 also

00:20:28.339 --> 00:20:29.099
 it's time

00:20:29.099 --> 00:20:29.720
 for me

00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:30.440
 to go

00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:31.200
 but again

00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:31.839
 Laban

00:20:31.839 --> 00:20:33.139
 pushes back

00:20:33.139 --> 00:20:34.699
 so here in

00:20:34.699 --> 00:20:35.299
 verse 31

00:20:35.299 --> 00:20:36.220
 Jacob offers up

00:20:36.220 --> 00:20:36.939
 this idea

00:20:36.939 --> 00:20:37.339
 he says

00:20:37.339 --> 00:20:37.519
 you know

00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:38.419
 don't give me

00:20:38.419 --> 00:20:38.899
 anything

00:20:38.899 --> 00:20:39.279
 here's what

00:20:39.279 --> 00:20:39.639
 we'll do

00:20:39.639 --> 00:20:41.759
 let me pass

00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:42.279
 through all your

00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:42.659
 flock

00:20:42.659 --> 00:20:43.220
 and I will

00:20:43.220 --> 00:20:44.259
 remove from it

00:20:44.259 --> 00:20:45.039
 every speckled

00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:45.539
 and spotted

00:20:45.539 --> 00:20:45.959
 sheep

00:20:45.959 --> 00:20:46.720
 and every black

00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:47.099
 lamb

00:20:47.099 --> 00:20:47.599
 and same with

00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:47.959
 the goats

00:20:47.959 --> 00:20:48.439
 speckled

00:20:48.439 --> 00:20:48.959
 and spotted

00:20:48.959 --> 00:20:49.500
 and mottled

00:20:49.500 --> 00:20:51.139
 amongst the goats

00:20:51.139 --> 00:20:51.619
 that's going to

00:20:51.619 --> 00:20:52.379
 be my wages

00:20:52.379 --> 00:20:53.259
 that way

00:20:53.259 --> 00:20:53.779
 when you come

00:20:53.779 --> 00:20:54.240
 back and you

00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:54.639
 check

00:20:54.639 --> 00:20:55.039
 you'll be able

00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:55.480
 to see

00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:56.199
 and make sure

00:20:56.199 --> 00:20:57.259
 that I haven't

00:20:57.259 --> 00:20:58.439
 stolen anything

00:20:58.439 --> 00:20:59.179
 it's all

00:20:59.179 --> 00:21:00.179
 all the speckled

00:21:00.179 --> 00:21:00.619
 and spotted

00:21:00.619 --> 00:21:01.039
 and black

00:21:01.039 --> 00:21:01.459
 and mottled

00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:02.640
 and all of

00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:02.920
 that's going

00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:03.299
 to be mine

00:21:03.299 --> 00:21:03.539
 what do you

00:21:03.539 --> 00:21:03.740
 think

00:21:03.740 --> 00:21:04.920
 and it's

00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:05.279
 interesting

00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:05.700
 how this

00:21:05.700 --> 00:21:06.000
 goes

00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:06.400
 because it's

00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:06.620
 kind of

00:21:06.620 --> 00:21:07.079
 a mirror

00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:07.740
 image

00:21:07.740 --> 00:21:08.440
 to what

00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:08.860
 we saw

00:21:08.860 --> 00:21:09.640
 last week

00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:10.019
 in chapter

00:21:10.019 --> 00:21:10.680
 29

00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:11.259
 so once

00:21:11.259 --> 00:21:11.720
 again

00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:12.420
 just like

00:21:12.420 --> 00:21:13.059
 in chapter

00:21:13.059 --> 00:21:13.500
 29

00:21:13.500 --> 00:21:14.960
 once again

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:15.600
 this sounds

00:21:15.600 --> 00:21:15.940
 like an

00:21:15.940 --> 00:21:16.720
 incredible deal

00:21:16.720 --> 00:21:17.259
 to Laban

00:21:17.259 --> 00:21:17.920
 and so just

00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:18.660
 like he did

00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:19.460
 when Jacob

00:21:19.460 --> 00:21:19.920
 offered up

00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:20.519
 seven years

00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:20.940
 of labor

00:21:20.940 --> 00:21:22.880
 for Laban

00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:25.539
 for Rachel

00:21:25.539 --> 00:21:27.120
 Laban

00:21:27.120 --> 00:21:27.539
 agreed

00:21:27.539 --> 00:21:28.299
 immediately

00:21:28.299 --> 00:21:28.680
 right

00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:30.220
 and once

00:21:30.220 --> 00:21:30.779
 again

00:21:30.779 --> 00:21:31.519
 just like

00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:31.879
 Laban

00:21:31.879 --> 00:21:32.200
 did

00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:33.539
 initially

00:21:33.539 --> 00:21:34.480
 he right

00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:34.720
 away

00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:35.200
 gets to

00:21:35.200 --> 00:21:35.539
 work

00:21:35.539 --> 00:21:36.220
 hatching

00:21:36.220 --> 00:21:36.879
 a plan

00:21:36.879 --> 00:21:37.500
 to trick

00:21:37.500 --> 00:21:38.319
 Jacob

00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:38.879
 he goes

00:21:38.879 --> 00:21:39.220
 and he

00:21:39.220 --> 00:21:39.940
 removes

00:21:39.940 --> 00:21:40.579
 all the

00:21:40.579 --> 00:21:41.119
 male goats

00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:41.399
 that are

00:21:41.399 --> 00:21:41.879
 striped

00:21:41.879 --> 00:21:42.440
 and spotted

00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:43.160
 and he

00:21:43.160 --> 00:21:43.440
 removes

00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:44.000
 all the

00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:44.740
 female goats

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:45.019
 that are

00:21:45.019 --> 00:21:45.460
 speckled

00:21:45.460 --> 00:21:46.000
 and spotted

00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:46.819
 and everybody

00:21:46.819 --> 00:21:47.240
 that had

00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:47.899
 white on it

00:21:47.899 --> 00:21:48.379
 every lamb

00:21:48.379 --> 00:21:48.660
 that was

00:21:48.660 --> 00:21:48.980
 black

00:21:48.980 --> 00:21:49.339
 he put

00:21:49.339 --> 00:21:49.599
 them in

00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:49.920
 charge

00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:50.180
 of his

00:21:50.180 --> 00:21:50.539
 sons

00:21:50.539 --> 00:21:51.139
 he puts

00:21:51.139 --> 00:21:51.579
 a three

00:21:51.579 --> 00:21:52.440
 day distance

00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:52.839
 in between

00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:53.359
 himself

00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:54.039
 and Jacob

00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:54.399
 and he

00:21:54.399 --> 00:21:54.879
 leaves

00:21:54.879 --> 00:21:55.299
 Jacob

00:21:55.299 --> 00:21:55.759
 there to

00:21:55.759 --> 00:21:56.139
 pasture

00:21:56.139 --> 00:21:56.639
 the rest

00:21:56.639 --> 00:21:56.960
 of the

00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:57.240
 flock

00:21:57.240 --> 00:21:58.019
 he is

00:21:58.019 --> 00:21:58.940
 again

00:21:58.940 --> 00:22:00.299
 setting up

00:22:00.299 --> 00:22:00.660
 Jacob

00:22:00.660 --> 00:22:01.240
 for failure

00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:01.759
 isn't he

00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:03.980
 but once

00:22:03.980 --> 00:22:04.420
 again

00:22:04.420 --> 00:22:06.319
 just as the

00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:07.000
 Lord turned

00:22:07.000 --> 00:22:07.720
 all of

00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:08.240
 Laban's

00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:08.720
 deceit

00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:09.140
 into this

00:22:09.140 --> 00:22:09.660
 incredible

00:22:09.660 --> 00:22:10.099
 blessing

00:22:10.099 --> 00:22:10.700
 for Jacob

00:22:10.700 --> 00:22:11.920
 eleven sons

00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:13.259
 one daughter

00:22:13.259 --> 00:22:14.859
 and so now

00:22:14.859 --> 00:22:15.759
 we see once

00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:16.660
 again God's

00:22:16.660 --> 00:22:17.220
 commitment

00:22:17.220 --> 00:22:18.359
 to bless

00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:19.220
 Jacob

00:22:19.220 --> 00:22:19.940
 even in

00:22:19.940 --> 00:22:21.120
 unexplainable

00:22:21.120 --> 00:22:22.000
 and incredible

00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:22.400
 ways

00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:22.900
 doesn't he

00:22:22.900 --> 00:22:24.339
 look there

00:22:24.339 --> 00:22:25.059
 verse 37

00:22:25.059 --> 00:22:26.480
 and here

00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:26.779
 we see

00:22:26.779 --> 00:22:27.119
 God's

00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:27.519
 provision

00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:28.299
 to

00:22:28.299 --> 00:22:29.079
 God's

00:22:29.079 --> 00:22:29.419
 people

00:22:29.419 --> 00:22:31.240
 verse 37

00:22:31.240 --> 00:22:32.079
 says that

00:22:32.079 --> 00:22:32.419
 Jacob

00:22:32.419 --> 00:22:33.000
 he takes

00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:33.319
 these

00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:34.220
 sticks

00:22:34.220 --> 00:22:34.980
 of poplar

00:22:34.980 --> 00:22:35.579
 and almond

00:22:35.579 --> 00:22:36.119
 and plain

00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:36.599
 trees

00:22:36.599 --> 00:22:37.459
 and he

00:22:37.459 --> 00:22:37.859
 peels

00:22:37.859 --> 00:22:38.399
 these white

00:22:38.399 --> 00:22:38.919
 streaks

00:22:38.919 --> 00:22:39.500
 in them

00:22:39.500 --> 00:22:39.839
 and he

00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:40.679
 sets up

00:22:40.679 --> 00:22:41.240
 these sticks

00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:41.639
 he puts

00:22:41.639 --> 00:22:41.959
 them in

00:22:41.959 --> 00:22:42.419
 the ground

00:22:42.419 --> 00:22:42.939
 in front

00:22:42.939 --> 00:22:43.199
 of the

00:22:43.199 --> 00:22:43.619
 flocks

00:22:43.619 --> 00:22:44.339
 where they

00:22:44.339 --> 00:22:44.619
 go to

00:22:44.619 --> 00:22:44.899
 get their

00:22:44.899 --> 00:22:45.299
 water

00:22:45.299 --> 00:22:45.819
 and they

00:22:45.819 --> 00:22:46.379
 breed

00:22:46.379 --> 00:22:46.839
 in front

00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:47.220
 of these

00:22:47.220 --> 00:22:47.679
 sticks

00:22:47.679 --> 00:22:47.980
 and what

00:22:47.980 --> 00:22:48.419
 happens

00:22:48.419 --> 00:22:49.559
 they produce

00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:50.259
 offspring

00:22:50.259 --> 00:22:50.919
 that are

00:22:50.919 --> 00:22:52.000
 striped

00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:53.319
 and speckled

00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:53.839
 and spotted

00:22:53.839 --> 00:22:54.179
 and then

00:22:54.179 --> 00:22:54.819
 I guess

00:22:54.819 --> 00:22:55.480
 he sees

00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:55.859
 well this

00:22:55.859 --> 00:22:56.500
 is working

00:22:56.500 --> 00:22:57.759
 so now

00:22:57.759 --> 00:22:58.919
 he strategically

00:22:58.919 --> 00:22:59.480
 he starts

00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:00.059
 to breed

00:23:00.059 --> 00:23:01.240
 the stronger

00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:01.659
 of the

00:23:01.659 --> 00:23:01.959
 flock

00:23:01.959 --> 00:23:02.299
 in this

00:23:02.299 --> 00:23:02.579
 way

00:23:02.579 --> 00:23:03.039
 he'd do

00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:03.419
 this little

00:23:03.419 --> 00:23:03.799
 trick

00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:04.119
 with the

00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:04.379
 sticks

00:23:04.379 --> 00:23:05.220
 he'd peel

00:23:05.220 --> 00:23:05.399
 them

00:23:05.399 --> 00:23:06.119
 and he'd

00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:06.500
 set them

00:23:06.500 --> 00:23:06.799
 out

00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:07.480
 and at

00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:07.759
 the end

00:23:07.759 --> 00:23:08.059
 of all

00:23:08.059 --> 00:23:08.379
 of this

00:23:08.379 --> 00:23:08.639
 it says

00:23:08.639 --> 00:23:09.000
 Jacob

00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:09.559
 has this

00:23:09.559 --> 00:23:10.319
 abundance

00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:11.740
 of strong

00:23:11.740 --> 00:23:12.419
 and healthy

00:23:12.419 --> 00:23:13.099
 flocks

00:23:13.099 --> 00:23:14.919
 in verse 43

00:23:14.919 --> 00:23:15.359
 it says

00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:15.959
 thus the man

00:23:15.959 --> 00:23:16.799
 increased greatly

00:23:16.799 --> 00:23:17.599
 and had large

00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:18.199
 flocks

00:23:18.199 --> 00:23:19.659
 female servants

00:23:19.659 --> 00:23:20.500
 and male servants

00:23:20.500 --> 00:23:21.099
 and camels

00:23:21.099 --> 00:23:22.139
 and donkeys

00:23:22.139 --> 00:23:22.599
 he is

00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:24.240
 overwhelmingly

00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:25.000
 blessed

00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:25.359
 by the

00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:25.579
 Lord

00:23:25.579 --> 00:23:26.000
 isn't he

00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:28.119
 how do

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:28.839
 you explain

00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:29.359
 this

00:23:29.359 --> 00:23:31.599
 I would

00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:31.859
 love for

00:23:31.859 --> 00:23:32.279
 somebody to

00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:32.559
 raise their

00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:32.859
 hand and

00:23:32.859 --> 00:23:33.379
 explain this

00:23:33.379 --> 00:23:33.659
 to me

00:23:33.659 --> 00:23:34.099
 naturally

00:23:34.099 --> 00:23:36.039
 I don't

00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:36.279
 know if you

00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:36.699
 realize this

00:23:36.699 --> 00:23:36.939
 or not

00:23:36.939 --> 00:23:37.339
 this is

00:23:37.339 --> 00:23:37.759
 not how

00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:38.599
 this happens

00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:40.859
 just peeling

00:23:40.859 --> 00:23:41.539
 some sticks

00:23:41.539 --> 00:23:42.019
 and sticking

00:23:42.019 --> 00:23:42.319
 them in the

00:23:42.319 --> 00:23:42.719
 ground

00:23:42.719 --> 00:23:44.399
 that doesn't

00:23:44.399 --> 00:23:45.079
 determine

00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:46.159
 genetically

00:23:46.159 --> 00:23:47.019
 how the baby

00:23:47.019 --> 00:23:47.359
 is going to

00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:47.740
 come out

00:23:47.740 --> 00:23:48.159
 does it

00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:50.180
 there is

00:23:50.180 --> 00:23:50.700
 no

00:23:50.700 --> 00:23:51.779
 natural

00:23:51.779 --> 00:23:52.840
 scientific

00:23:52.840 --> 00:23:53.620
 explanation

00:23:53.620 --> 00:23:54.340
 for any

00:23:54.340 --> 00:23:54.840
 of this

00:23:54.840 --> 00:23:55.279
 is there

00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:57.040
 and so

00:23:57.040 --> 00:23:59.180
 naturalists

00:23:59.180 --> 00:24:01.279
 skeptics

00:24:01.279 --> 00:24:02.440
 will look

00:24:02.440 --> 00:24:03.220
 at passages

00:24:03.220 --> 00:24:03.779
 like this

00:24:03.779 --> 00:24:04.160
 look at this

00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:04.600
 phenomenon

00:24:04.600 --> 00:24:05.000
 and they'll

00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:05.140
 say

00:24:05.140 --> 00:24:05.900
 well see

00:24:05.900 --> 00:24:07.800
 the bible

00:24:07.800 --> 00:24:08.360
 can't be

00:24:08.360 --> 00:24:08.900
 trusted

00:24:08.900 --> 00:24:09.279
 this is

00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:09.740
 ridiculous

00:24:09.740 --> 00:24:10.220
 right

00:24:10.220 --> 00:24:11.800
 this isn't

00:24:11.800 --> 00:24:12.279
 how this

00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:12.600
 works

00:24:12.600 --> 00:24:12.960
 don't you

00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:13.240
 know

00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:13.660
 that sticking

00:24:13.660 --> 00:24:14.140
 some sticks

00:24:14.140 --> 00:24:14.380
 in the

00:24:14.380 --> 00:24:14.660
 ground

00:24:14.660 --> 00:24:15.040
 doesn't have

00:24:15.040 --> 00:24:15.640
 anything to do

00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:16.340
 without the

00:24:16.340 --> 00:24:16.880
 babies are

00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:17.540
 bred

00:24:17.540 --> 00:24:17.920
 and they're

00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:18.360
 right

00:24:18.360 --> 00:24:19.280
 this is

00:24:19.280 --> 00:24:19.980
 not how

00:24:19.980 --> 00:24:20.740
 this works

00:24:20.740 --> 00:24:21.400
 this cannot

00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:23.040
 be naturally

00:24:23.040 --> 00:24:24.180
 explained

00:24:24.180 --> 00:24:24.880
 but that's

00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:25.660
 exactly where

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:26.259
 they go wrong

00:24:26.259 --> 00:24:27.120
 isn't it

00:24:27.120 --> 00:24:28.880
 where they go

00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:29.560
 wrong from

00:24:29.560 --> 00:24:30.280
 the start

00:24:30.280 --> 00:24:31.140
 is by assuming

00:24:31.140 --> 00:24:32.140
 that everything

00:24:32.140 --> 00:24:32.920
 that happens

00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:33.660
 must be

00:24:33.660 --> 00:24:34.380
 naturally

00:24:34.380 --> 00:24:35.160
 explained

00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:36.640
 and if

00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:37.040
 everything

00:24:37.040 --> 00:24:37.980
 must be

00:24:37.980 --> 00:24:38.600
 explained

00:24:38.600 --> 00:24:39.480
 by natural

00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:40.360
 and observable

00:24:40.360 --> 00:24:41.440
 scientific process

00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:42.060
 well then

00:24:42.060 --> 00:24:42.580
 from the very

00:24:42.580 --> 00:24:43.100
 beginning

00:24:43.100 --> 00:24:44.040
 you have

00:24:44.040 --> 00:24:45.220
 ruled out

00:24:45.220 --> 00:24:45.640
 an

00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:46.680
 extraordinary

00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:47.940
 supernatural

00:24:47.940 --> 00:24:49.299
 sovereign

00:24:49.299 --> 00:24:50.400
 all powerful

00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:50.960
 God

00:24:50.960 --> 00:24:51.680
 that can do

00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:52.019
 as he

00:24:52.019 --> 00:24:52.640
 pleases

00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:53.120
 within his

00:24:53.120 --> 00:24:53.620
 creation

00:24:53.620 --> 00:24:54.140
 haven't you

00:24:54.140 --> 00:24:56.100
 this is why

00:24:56.100 --> 00:24:56.460
 the bible

00:24:56.460 --> 00:24:57.079
 starts

00:24:57.079 --> 00:24:57.640
 where it

00:24:57.640 --> 00:24:58.380
 starts

00:24:58.380 --> 00:24:58.819
 it doesn't

00:24:58.819 --> 00:24:59.339
 start

00:24:59.339 --> 00:24:59.799
 in the

00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:00.319
 natural

00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:00.680
 does it

00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:00.920
 how does

00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:01.299
 it start

00:25:01.299 --> 00:25:01.920
 Genesis 1

00:25:01.920 --> 00:25:02.200
 1

00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:02.960
 in the

00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:03.380
 beginning

00:25:03.380 --> 00:25:05.220
 God

00:25:05.220 --> 00:25:06.240
 created

00:25:06.240 --> 00:25:07.200
 the heavens

00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:08.079
 and the

00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:08.480
 earth

00:25:08.480 --> 00:25:09.759
 God

00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:10.000
 is

00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:10.680
 sovereign

00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:11.220
 ruler

00:25:11.220 --> 00:25:12.120
 of all

00:25:12.120 --> 00:25:12.680
 of heaven

00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:13.519
 and earth

00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:13.740
 and if

00:25:13.740 --> 00:25:13.860
 you're

00:25:13.860 --> 00:25:14.319
 thrown off

00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:14.860
 by this

00:25:14.859 --> 00:25:15.379
 just give me

00:25:15.379 --> 00:25:15.659
 a couple

00:25:15.659 --> 00:25:15.939
 weeks

00:25:15.939 --> 00:25:16.179
 till we

00:25:16.179 --> 00:25:16.399
 get to

00:25:16.399 --> 00:25:16.719
 Easter

00:25:16.719 --> 00:25:16.979
 I'll

00:25:16.979 --> 00:25:17.240
 tell you

00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:17.459
 about a

00:25:17.459 --> 00:25:17.619
 guy

00:25:17.619 --> 00:25:17.919
 that got

00:25:17.919 --> 00:25:18.159
 up from

00:25:18.159 --> 00:25:18.639
 the dead

00:25:18.639 --> 00:25:21.639
 this is

00:25:21.639 --> 00:25:22.359
 not natural

00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:22.879
 provision

00:25:22.879 --> 00:25:23.500
 that's exactly

00:25:23.500 --> 00:25:24.059
 the point

00:25:24.059 --> 00:25:24.740
 this is

00:25:24.740 --> 00:25:25.740
 supernatural

00:25:25.740 --> 00:25:27.619
 divine

00:25:27.619 --> 00:25:28.500
 intervention

00:25:28.500 --> 00:25:29.619
 a work

00:25:29.619 --> 00:25:30.459
 of God

00:25:30.459 --> 00:25:31.359
 on behalf

00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:31.899
 of his

00:25:31.899 --> 00:25:32.399
 servant

00:25:32.399 --> 00:25:33.419
 to provide

00:25:33.419 --> 00:25:35.019
 for him

00:25:35.019 --> 00:25:35.379
 in fact

00:25:35.379 --> 00:25:35.819
 we see

00:25:35.819 --> 00:25:36.839
 Jacob's

00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:37.159
 explanation

00:25:37.159 --> 00:25:37.759
 later in

00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:38.399
 chapter 31

00:25:38.399 --> 00:25:38.779
 he says

00:25:38.779 --> 00:25:39.059
 the Lord

00:25:39.059 --> 00:25:39.459
 told him

00:25:39.459 --> 00:25:39.939
 in a dream

00:25:39.939 --> 00:25:40.459
 to do

00:25:40.459 --> 00:25:41.259
 all of this

00:25:41.259 --> 00:25:42.000
 and clearly

00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:43.480
 this is

00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:44.079
 the provision

00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:44.700
 of the

00:25:44.700 --> 00:25:45.039
 Lord

00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:46.559
 the Bible

00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:46.819
 is not

00:25:46.819 --> 00:25:47.319
 trying to

00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:48.279
 explain this

00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:48.660
 and present

00:25:48.660 --> 00:25:49.259
 this as a

00:25:49.259 --> 00:25:49.759
 natural

00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:50.420
 and normal

00:25:50.420 --> 00:25:51.019
 phenomenon

00:25:51.019 --> 00:25:51.539
 the Bible

00:25:51.539 --> 00:25:52.059
 is telling

00:25:52.059 --> 00:25:52.259
 us

00:25:52.259 --> 00:25:52.720
 God

00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:53.180
 is at

00:25:53.180 --> 00:25:53.619
 work

00:25:53.619 --> 00:25:54.319
 blessing

00:25:54.319 --> 00:25:54.960
 and providing

00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:55.420
 for his

00:25:55.420 --> 00:25:55.980
 servant

00:25:55.980 --> 00:25:58.200
 sometimes

00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:00.279
 God

00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:01.460
 will just

00:26:01.460 --> 00:26:02.660
 show up

00:26:02.660 --> 00:26:03.339

00:26:03.339 --> 00:26:03.859
 this sort

00:26:03.859 --> 00:26:04.160
 of thing

00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:04.519
 even in

00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:04.839
 our own

00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:05.180
 lives

00:26:05.180 --> 00:26:05.539
 won't he

00:26:05.539 --> 00:26:07.519

00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:08.059
 the time

00:26:08.059 --> 00:26:08.480
 and not

00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:09.019
 not if

00:26:09.019 --> 00:26:09.240
 you just

00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:09.700
 have enough

00:26:09.700 --> 00:26:10.099
 faith

00:26:10.099 --> 00:26:10.279
 I mean

00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:10.539
 this is

00:26:10.539 --> 00:26:10.980
 not some

00:26:10.980 --> 00:26:11.579
 prosperity

00:26:11.579 --> 00:26:12.220
 guarantee

00:26:12.220 --> 00:26:13.200
 some prosperity

00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:13.740
 promise

00:26:13.740 --> 00:26:14.019
 but

00:26:14.019 --> 00:26:15.120
 but sometimes

00:26:15.120 --> 00:26:15.960
 friend

00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:16.620
 God

00:26:16.620 --> 00:26:17.599
 is pleased

00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:18.740

 in direct

00:26:21.460 --> 00:26:21.940
 and even

00:26:21.940 --> 00:26:22.860
 unexplainable

00:26:22.860 --> 00:26:23.319
 ways

00:26:25.380 --> 00:26:27.980
 I remember

00:26:27.980 --> 00:26:29.339
 one time

00:26:29.339 --> 00:26:29.640
 when I was

00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:30.259

 and we

00:26:30.860 --> 00:26:31.259

00:26:31.259 --> 00:26:31.680
 were broke

00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:38.680
 I was

00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:38.920
 working

00:26:38.920 --> 00:26:39.180
 a few

00:26:39.180 --> 00:26:39.720
 jobs

00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:40.579
 on top

00:26:40.579 --> 00:26:40.819

00:26:46.339 --> 00:26:47.240
 were driving

00:26:47.240 --> 00:26:48.339
 and talking

00:26:48.339 --> 00:26:49.500
 about how

00:26:49.500 --> 00:26:50.379

00:26:50.379 --> 00:26:51.079

00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:51.539
 to bridge

00:26:51.539 --> 00:26:52.000
 the gap

 each month

00:27:36.879 --> 00:27:37.039
 that

00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:37.460
 naturally

00:27:37.460 --> 00:27:39.579
 you don't

00:27:39.579 --> 00:27:41.200
 God

00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:42.299
 is pleased

00:27:42.299 --> 00:27:43.619
 to glorify

00:27:43.619 --> 00:27:44.460
 himself by

00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:46.140
 his people

00:27:46.140 --> 00:27:47.059
 often and

00:27:47.059 --> 00:27:48.920
 unexplainable

00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:49.619
 and surprising

00:27:49.619 --> 00:27:50.519
 ways and

00:27:50.519 --> 00:27:51.000
 sometimes

00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:52.379
 sometimes it

00:27:52.379 --> 00:27:53.480
 happens in

00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:54.059
 these surprising

00:27:54.059 --> 00:27:54.720
 ways but we

00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:55.119
 should also

00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:55.900
 know even

00:27:55.900 --> 00:27:56.599
 in the more

 ordinary ways

 the ordinary

00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:04.960
 explainable

00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:06.119
 ways God

00:28:06.119 --> 00:28:07.000
 is always

00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:07.839
 the one

00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:08.779
 who provides

00:28:16.339 --> 00:28:16.980
 importantly than

00:29:06.800 --> 00:29:07.580
 has taken

00:29:07.580 --> 00:29:08.259
 all that

00:29:08.259 --> 00:29:08.660
 was our

00:29:08.660 --> 00:29:09.340
 father's

00:29:09.340 --> 00:29:10.160
 and from

00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:10.940
 our father's

00:29:10.940 --> 00:29:11.680
 stuff he's

00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:12.100
 gained all

00:29:12.100 --> 00:29:12.620
 that wealth

00:29:12.620 --> 00:29:12.920
 that he

00:29:12.920 --> 00:29:13.220
 has

00:29:13.220 --> 00:29:14.080
 they are

00:29:14.080 --> 00:29:14.820
 falsely

00:29:14.820 --> 00:29:15.440
 accusing

00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:15.960
 Jacob

00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:17.280
 they are

00:29:17.280 --> 00:29:17.780
 falsely

00:29:17.780 --> 00:29:18.440
 accusing him

00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:19.600
 of weaseling

00:29:19.600 --> 00:29:20.200
 his way

00:29:20.200 --> 00:29:20.780
 and stealing

00:29:20.780 --> 00:29:21.360
 all of their

00:29:21.360 --> 00:29:22.080
 father's wealth

00:29:22.080 --> 00:29:22.460
 and of course

00:29:22.460 --> 00:29:22.980
 the truth

00:29:22.980 --> 00:29:23.800
 is their

00:29:23.800 --> 00:29:24.840
 father he's

00:29:24.840 --> 00:29:25.220
 the one who's

00:29:25.220 --> 00:29:25.700
 been trying to

00:29:25.700 --> 00:29:26.120
 steal from

00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:26.539
 Jacob

00:29:26.539 --> 00:29:27.719
 but here

00:29:27.719 --> 00:29:28.219
 they are

00:29:28.219 --> 00:29:29.239
 wrongfully

00:29:29.239 --> 00:29:29.979
 accusing

00:29:29.979 --> 00:29:30.659
 falsely

00:29:30.659 --> 00:29:31.119
 accusing

00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:32.099
 Jacob

00:29:32.099 --> 00:29:32.899
 and we

00:29:32.899 --> 00:29:33.399
 should realize

00:29:33.399 --> 00:29:34.159
 that is one

00:29:34.159 --> 00:29:35.059
 danger that

00:29:35.059 --> 00:29:36.219
 we face

00:29:36.219 --> 00:29:36.719
 as God's

00:29:36.719 --> 00:29:37.039
 people

00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:39.399
 God protects

00:29:39.399 --> 00:29:40.059
 his people

00:29:40.059 --> 00:29:40.599
 from the

00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:41.439
 accusations

00:29:41.439 --> 00:29:42.799
 of the

00:29:42.799 --> 00:29:43.139
 enemy

00:29:43.139 --> 00:29:45.299
 Revelation

00:29:45.299 --> 00:29:46.000
 chapter 12

00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:46.799
 says that we

00:29:46.799 --> 00:29:47.500
 have an

00:29:47.500 --> 00:29:48.039
 enemy

00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:48.799
 Christian

00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:50.279
 an enemy

00:29:50.279 --> 00:29:51.459
 who accuses

00:29:51.459 --> 00:29:52.459
 our brothers

00:29:52.459 --> 00:29:53.279
 and sisters

00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:54.000
 who accuses

00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:55.240
 us day

00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:56.440
 and night

00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:58.119
 the only

00:29:58.119 --> 00:29:58.619
 difference

00:29:58.619 --> 00:29:59.059
 here is

00:29:59.059 --> 00:29:59.420
 that when

00:29:59.420 --> 00:29:59.839
 Satan

00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:01.000
 accuses

00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:01.259
 us

00:30:01.259 --> 00:30:01.660
 before

00:30:01.660 --> 00:30:02.160
 God

00:30:02.160 --> 00:30:02.819
 and when

00:30:02.819 --> 00:30:03.039
 Satan

00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:03.740
 tells the

00:30:03.740 --> 00:30:03.960
 Lord

00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:04.700
 how sinful

00:30:04.700 --> 00:30:05.559
 we are

00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:06.240
 and when

00:30:06.240 --> 00:30:06.440
 Satan

00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:06.920
 tells the

00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:07.240
 Lord how

00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:07.500
 we have

00:30:07.500 --> 00:30:07.720
 not

00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:08.180
 honored

00:30:08.180 --> 00:30:08.579
 God

00:30:08.579 --> 00:30:08.900
 with our

00:30:08.900 --> 00:30:09.380
 words

00:30:09.380 --> 00:30:10.279
 and we've

00:30:10.279 --> 00:30:10.700
 not honored

00:30:10.700 --> 00:30:11.000
 him with

00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:11.599
 our deeds

00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:11.900
 and we've

00:30:11.900 --> 00:30:12.319
 not honored

00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:12.680
 him with

00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:13.619
 our thoughts

00:30:13.619 --> 00:30:13.980
 and we've

00:30:13.980 --> 00:30:14.460
 not honored

00:30:14.460 --> 00:30:14.819
 him with

00:30:14.819 --> 00:30:15.380
 our lives

00:30:15.380 --> 00:30:15.759
 you know

00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:15.980
 what the

00:30:15.980 --> 00:30:16.259
 difference

00:30:16.259 --> 00:30:16.599
 is

00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:17.700
 he is

00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:18.700
 absolutely

00:30:18.700 --> 00:30:19.579
 right

00:30:19.579 --> 00:30:21.339
 we are

00:30:21.339 --> 00:30:22.199
 not wrongfully

00:30:22.199 --> 00:30:22.799
 accused

00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:24.099
 we are

00:30:24.099 --> 00:30:24.519
 rightly

00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:25.599
 accused

00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:27.139
 and we

00:30:27.139 --> 00:30:27.779
 as sinners

00:30:27.779 --> 00:30:28.599
 have no

00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:29.399
 case to

00:30:29.399 --> 00:30:29.879
 make in

00:30:29.879 --> 00:30:30.500
 that argument

00:30:30.500 --> 00:30:31.519
 except for

00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:32.099
 this one

00:30:32.099 --> 00:30:32.899
 little fact

00:30:32.899 --> 00:30:35.899
 that God

00:30:35.899 --> 00:30:36.599
 himself has

00:30:36.599 --> 00:30:37.779
 stepped in

00:30:37.779 --> 00:30:38.839
 to cover

00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:39.679
 sinners like

00:30:39.679 --> 00:30:40.359
 us with

00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:41.000
 the perfect

00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:41.759
 righteousness

00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:42.419
 of his

00:30:42.419 --> 00:30:42.879
 own

00:30:42.879 --> 00:30:43.519
 son

00:30:43.519 --> 00:30:43.980
 Jesus

00:30:43.980 --> 00:30:44.500
 Christ

00:30:44.500 --> 00:30:47.159
 what is

00:30:47.159 --> 00:30:47.759
 our argument

00:30:47.759 --> 00:30:49.379
 when we

00:30:49.379 --> 00:30:50.000
 stand before

00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:50.339
 the living

00:30:50.339 --> 00:30:50.740
 God

00:30:50.740 --> 00:30:51.519
 and the

00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:51.839
 verdict

00:30:51.839 --> 00:30:52.259
 comes

00:30:52.259 --> 00:30:52.700
 down

00:30:52.700 --> 00:30:53.700
 we don't

00:30:53.700 --> 00:30:53.980
 look at

00:30:53.980 --> 00:30:54.379
 our own

00:30:54.379 --> 00:30:54.859
 record

00:30:54.859 --> 00:30:55.079
 of

00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:55.500
 righteousness

00:30:55.500 --> 00:30:56.240
 we have

00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:56.759
 no record

00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:56.940
 of

00:30:56.940 --> 00:30:57.400
 righteousness

00:30:57.400 --> 00:30:58.740
 our only

00:30:58.740 --> 00:30:59.220
 hope

00:30:59.220 --> 00:31:00.059
 and our

00:31:00.059 --> 00:31:00.920
 only plea

00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:01.799
 is the

00:31:01.799 --> 00:31:02.539
 blood of

00:31:02.539 --> 00:31:02.980
 Jesus

00:31:02.980 --> 00:31:03.680
 that washes

00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:04.019
 away

00:31:04.019 --> 00:31:04.680
 every sin

00:31:04.680 --> 00:31:06.819
 God

00:31:06.819 --> 00:31:07.359
 himself

00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:07.759
 has

00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:08.799
 justified

00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:09.220
 his

00:31:09.220 --> 00:31:09.599
 people

00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:09.940
 he

00:31:09.940 --> 00:31:10.500
 himself

00:31:10.500 --> 00:31:10.759
 has

00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:11.519
 declared

00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:11.799
 his

00:31:11.799 --> 00:31:12.160
 people

00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:12.700
 righteous

00:31:12.700 --> 00:31:13.660
 not on

00:31:13.660 --> 00:31:14.039
 our own

00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:14.319
 merit

00:31:14.319 --> 00:31:14.879
 but because

00:31:14.879 --> 00:31:15.220
 of the

00:31:15.220 --> 00:31:15.680
 perfect

00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:16.400
 righteousness

00:31:16.400 --> 00:31:16.859
 of

00:31:16.859 --> 00:31:17.299
 Christ

00:31:17.299 --> 00:31:17.960
 credit

00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:18.460
 to us

00:31:18.460 --> 00:31:18.680
 by

00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:19.119
 faith

00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:20.759
 so we

00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:20.940
 say

00:31:20.940 --> 00:31:21.259
 again

00:31:21.259 --> 00:31:21.440
 with

00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:21.720
 Paul

00:31:21.720 --> 00:31:21.899
 if

00:31:21.899 --> 00:31:22.139
 God

00:31:22.139 --> 00:31:22.359
 has

00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:23.259
 justified

00:31:23.259 --> 00:31:23.599
 us

00:31:23.599 --> 00:31:23.859
 who

00:31:23.859 --> 00:31:24.099
 is

00:31:24.099 --> 00:31:24.240
 there

00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:24.440
 to

00:31:24.440 --> 00:31:24.899
 condemn

00:31:24.899 --> 00:31:25.559
 us

00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:27.480
 Charles

00:31:27.480 --> 00:31:27.960
 Spurgeon

00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:28.359
 says

00:31:28.359 --> 00:31:29.299
 that

00:31:29.299 --> 00:31:29.779
 dragon

00:31:29.779 --> 00:31:30.399
 voice

00:31:30.399 --> 00:31:31.000
 revelation

00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:31.539
 12

00:31:31.539 --> 00:31:32.379
 is

00:31:32.379 --> 00:31:33.039
 silenced

00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:33.419
 by the

00:31:33.419 --> 00:31:33.720
 blood

00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:34.000
 of the

00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:34.259
 lamb

00:31:34.259 --> 00:31:34.680
 nothing

00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:35.379
 else

00:31:35.379 --> 00:31:35.799
 can

00:31:35.799 --> 00:31:36.279
 ever

00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:36.859
 silence

00:31:36.859 --> 00:31:37.019
 the

00:31:37.019 --> 00:31:37.559
 accuser's

00:31:37.559 --> 00:31:37.859
 cruel

00:31:37.859 --> 00:31:38.299
 voice

00:31:38.299 --> 00:31:38.859
 but the

00:31:38.859 --> 00:31:39.339
 voice

00:31:39.339 --> 00:31:39.899
 of

00:31:39.899 --> 00:31:40.200
 the

00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:40.659
 blood

00:31:40.659 --> 00:31:42.519
 keep

00:31:42.519 --> 00:31:42.740
 reading

00:31:42.740 --> 00:31:43.000
 we see

00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:43.220
 another

00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:43.579
 danger

00:31:43.579 --> 00:31:44.000
 here

00:31:44.000 --> 00:31:44.200
 and it's

00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:44.339
 the

00:31:44.339 --> 00:31:44.839
 attacks

00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:45.319
 of the

00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:45.579
 enemy

00:31:45.579 --> 00:31:46.819
 the

00:31:46.819 --> 00:31:47.359
 attacks

00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:48.419
 of the

00:31:48.679 --> 00:31:48.960
 we see

00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:49.339
 God

00:31:49.339 --> 00:31:49.819
 protects

00:31:49.819 --> 00:31:50.019
 his

00:31:50.019 --> 00:31:50.399
 people

00:31:50.399 --> 00:31:50.759
 from

 the

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:51.759
 attacks

00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:52.899
 of the

00:31:52.899 --> 00:31:53.179
 enemy

00:31:53.179 --> 00:31:53.639
 it says

00:31:53.639 --> 00:31:53.859
 that

00:31:53.859 --> 00:31:54.519
 Jacob

00:31:54.519 --> 00:31:54.740
 could

00:31:54.740 --> 00:31:55.000
 tell

00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:55.240
 that

00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:55.539
 Laban

00:31:55.539 --> 00:31:55.779
 didn't

00:31:55.779 --> 00:31:56.079
 treat

00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:56.379
 him

00:31:56.379 --> 00:31:56.539
 with

00:31:56.539 --> 00:31:57.019
 favor

00:31:57.019 --> 00:31:57.319
 like

00:31:57.319 --> 00:31:57.460
 he

00:31:57.460 --> 00:31:57.619
 did

00:31:57.619 --> 00:31:57.899
 before

00:31:57.899 --> 00:31:58.159
 you know

00:31:58.159 --> 00:31:58.379
 how you

00:31:58.480 --> 00:31:58.899
 just tell

00:31:58.899 --> 00:31:59.339
 right

00:31:59.339 --> 00:32:00.720
 the vibe

00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:00.980
 has

00:32:00.980 --> 00:32:01.539
 shifted

00:32:01.539 --> 00:32:02.519
 you don't

00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:02.740
 even have

 you just

00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:04.039
 know

00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:04.439
 there's

00:32:04.439 --> 00:32:05.039
 something

00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:05.379
 something

00:32:05.379 --> 00:32:05.659
 has

00:32:05.659 --> 00:32:06.279
 happened

00:32:06.279 --> 00:32:06.679
 here

!

00:32:15.579 --> 00:32:16.439
 listen

00:32:16.439 --> 00:32:16.639
 to what

00:32:16.639 --> 00:32:17.119
 he says

00:32:17.119 --> 00:32:18.460
 he says

00:32:18.460 --> 00:32:18.859
 but the

00:32:18.859 --> 00:32:19.220
 God

00:32:19.220 --> 00:32:19.539
 of my

00:32:23.139 --> 00:32:23.339
 that

00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:23.559
 I've

00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:23.839
 served

00:32:23.839 --> 00:32:24.039
 him

00:32:24.859 --> 00:32:24.980
 and

00:32:24.980 --> 00:32:25.099
 yet

00:32:25.099 --> 00:32:25.220
 your

00:32:25.220 --> 00:32:25.559
 father

00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:25.759
 has

00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:26.059
 cheated

00:32:26.059 --> 00:32:26.359
 me

00:32:26.359 --> 00:32:26.579
 and

00:32:26.579 --> 00:32:27.199
 changed

00:32:27.199 --> 00:32:27.399
 my

 wages

00:32:27.699 --> 00:32:28.079
 ten

00:32:28.079 --> 00:32:28.480
 times

00:32:28.480 --> 00:32:28.679
 but

00:32:28.679 --> 00:32:28.839
 look

00:32:28.839 --> 00:32:28.939
 at

00:32:28.939 --> 00:32:29.279
 this

00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:30.319
 but

00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:30.919
 God

00:32:30.919 --> 00:32:31.199
 did

00:32:31.199 --> 00:32:31.480
 not

00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:31.960
 permit

00:32:32.439 --> 00:32:33.159
 to

00:32:33.159 --> 00:32:33.460
 harm

00:32:33.460 --> 00:32:33.779
 me

00:32:33.779 --> 00:32:34.740
 if

 he

00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:35.099
 said

00:32:35.099 --> 00:32:35.500
 spotted

00:32:35.500 --> 00:32:35.659
 I

00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:36.220
 spotted

00:32:36.220 --> 00:32:36.399

00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:38.599
 9

00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:39.259

00:32:39.259 --> 00:32:39.699
 God

00:32:39.699 --> 00:32:39.960
 has

00:35:55.819 --> 00:35:58.360
 God

00:35:58.360 --> 00:35:59.000

00:36:00.059 --> 00:36:00.460

00:36:00.460 --> 00:36:00.960

00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:01.319
 we ought

00:36:01.319 --> 00:36:01.860

00:36:02.599 --> 00:36:04.440
 why

00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:06.159
 often

00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:06.579
 pray

 he's

00:40:44.839 --> 00:40:45.259
 clueless

00:40:45.259 --> 00:40:45.439
 isn't

00:40:45.439 --> 00:40:45.619
 he

00:40:45.619 --> 00:40:47.219
 and

00:40:47.219 --> 00:40:47.339
 then

00:40:47.339 --> 00:40:47.500
 it

00:40:47.500 --> 00:40:47.959
 all

00:40:47.959 --> 00:40:48.419
 starts

00:40:48.419 --> 00:40:48.639
 to

00:40:48.639 --> 00:40:49.000
 come

00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:49.419
 out

00:40:49.419 --> 00:40:49.899
 20

00:40:49.899 --> 00:40:50.479
 years

00:40:50.479 --> 00:40:50.679
 of

00:40:50.679 --> 00:40:51.039
 drama

00:40:51.039 --> 00:40:51.199
 and

00:40:51.199 --> 00:40:51.339
 I'll

00:40:51.339 --> 00:40:51.819
 paraphrase

00:40:51.819 --> 00:40:52.099
 here

00:40:52.099 --> 00:40:53.259
 20

00:40:53.259 --> 00:40:53.559
 years

00:40:53.559 --> 00:40:53.759
 I've

00:40:53.759 --> 00:40:53.879
 been

00:40:53.879 --> 00:40:54.099
 with

00:40:54.099 --> 00:40:54.359
 you

00:40:54.359 --> 00:40:55.759
 your

00:40:55.759 --> 00:40:56.259
 you's

00:40:56.259 --> 00:40:56.379
 and

00:40:56.379 --> 00:40:56.559
 your

00:40:56.559 --> 00:40:57.179
 goats

00:40:57.179 --> 00:40:57.459
 haven't

00:40:57.459 --> 00:40:58.059
 miscarried

00:40:58.059 --> 00:40:58.219
 I

00:40:58.219 --> 00:40:58.459
 haven't

00:40:58.459 --> 00:40:58.639
 eaten

00:40:58.639 --> 00:40:58.879
 any

00:40:58.879 --> 00:40:59.059
 of

00:40:59.059 --> 00:40:59.539
 your

00:40:59.539 --> 00:41:00.000
 food

00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:00.459
 I've

00:41:00.459 --> 00:41:00.779
 taken

00:41:00.779 --> 00:41:00.979
 the

00:41:00.979 --> 00:41:01.299
 loss

00:41:01.299 --> 00:41:01.479
 when

00:41:01.479 --> 00:41:01.679
 things

00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:01.879
 went

00:41:01.879 --> 00:41:02.279
 poorly

00:41:02.279 --> 00:41:02.479
 I

00:41:02.479 --> 00:41:02.759
 worked

00:41:02.759 --> 00:41:02.899
 in

00:41:02.899 --> 00:41:03.039
 the

00:41:03.039 --> 00:41:03.339
 cold

00:41:03.339 --> 00:41:04.519
 I

00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:04.899
 barely

00:41:04.899 --> 00:41:05.399
 slept

00:41:05.399 --> 00:41:05.599
 for

00:41:05.599 --> 00:41:05.939
 20

00:41:05.939 --> 00:41:06.399
 years

00:41:06.399 --> 00:41:06.919
 you

00:41:06.919 --> 00:41:07.239
 keep

00:41:07.239 --> 00:41:07.579
 changing

00:41:07.579 --> 00:41:07.859
 my

00:41:12.739 --> 00:41:13.159
 and

00:41:13.159 --> 00:41:13.319
 if

00:41:13.319 --> 00:41:13.599
 God

00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:13.739
 had

00:41:13.739 --> 00:41:13.939
 not

00:41:13.939 --> 00:41:14.119
 been

00:41:14.119 --> 00:41:14.379
 with

00:41:14.379 --> 00:41:14.719
 me

00:41:14.719 --> 00:41:16.139
 the

00:41:16.139 --> 00:41:16.339
 God

00:41:16.339 --> 00:41:16.439
 of

00:41:16.439 --> 00:41:16.579
 my

00:41:16.579 --> 00:41:16.959
 father

00:41:16.959 --> 00:41:17.339
 the

00:41:17.339 --> 00:41:17.579
 God

00:41:17.579 --> 00:41:17.699
 of

00:41:17.699 --> 00:41:18.079
 Abraham

00:41:18.079 --> 00:41:18.399
 the

00:41:18.399 --> 00:41:18.679
 fear

00:41:18.679 --> 00:41:18.859
 of

00:41:18.859 --> 00:41:19.199
 Isaac

00:41:19.199 --> 00:41:19.479
 if

00:41:19.479 --> 00:41:19.619
 he

00:41:19.619 --> 00:41:19.779
 had

00:41:19.779 --> 00:41:19.939
 not

00:41:19.939 --> 00:41:20.079
 been

00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:20.199
 on

00:41:20.199 --> 00:41:20.379
 my

00:41:20.379 --> 00:41:20.759
 side

00:41:20.759 --> 00:41:21.439
 surely

00:41:21.439 --> 00:41:21.979
 now

00:41:21.979 --> 00:41:22.419
 you

00:41:22.419 --> 00:41:22.559
 would

00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:22.679
 have

00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:22.839
 sent

00:41:22.839 --> 00:41:23.000
 me

00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:23.239
 away

00:41:23.239 --> 00:41:23.500
 empty

00:41:23.500 --> 00:41:23.799
 handed

00:41:23.799 --> 00:41:24.319
 but

00:41:24.319 --> 00:41:24.979
 God

00:41:24.979 --> 00:41:25.659
 saw

00:41:25.659 --> 00:41:26.419
 my

00:41:26.419 --> 00:41:27.199
 affliction

00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:28.379
 God

00:41:28.379 --> 00:41:28.899
 saw

00:41:28.899 --> 00:41:29.119
 the

00:41:29.119 --> 00:41:29.439
 labor

00:41:29.439 --> 00:41:29.659
 of

00:41:29.659 --> 00:41:29.879
 my

00:41:29.879 --> 00:41:30.259
 hands

00:41:30.259 --> 00:41:31.019
 God

00:41:31.019 --> 00:41:31.679
 rebuked

00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:32.000
 you

00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:32.659
 last

00:41:32.659 --> 00:41:32.959
 night

00:41:32.959 --> 00:41:33.259
 you

00:41:33.259 --> 00:41:33.439
 see

00:41:33.439 --> 00:41:33.799
 Jacob's

00:41:33.799 --> 00:41:34.179
 perspective

00:41:34.179 --> 00:41:34.519
 on this

00:41:34.519 --> 00:41:34.659
 whole

00:41:34.659 --> 00:41:34.939
 thing

00:41:34.939 --> 00:41:36.739
 Jacob

00:41:36.739 --> 00:41:37.599
 sees

00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:38.279
 rightly

00:41:38.279 --> 00:41:38.299
!

00:41:38.779 --> 00:41:38.919
 and he

00:41:38.919 --> 00:41:39.599
 explains

00:41:39.599 --> 00:41:39.859
 to

00:41:39.859 --> 00:41:40.279
 Laban

00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:41.019
 the truth

00:41:41.019 --> 00:41:41.280
 of the

00:41:41.280 --> 00:41:41.560
 matter

00:41:41.560 --> 00:41:42.000
 that

00:41:42.000 --> 00:41:42.700
 God

00:41:42.700 --> 00:41:43.019
 is

00:41:43.019 --> 00:41:43.600
 with

00:41:43.600 --> 00:41:44.200
 Jacob

00:41:44.200 --> 00:41:45.500
 God

00:41:45.500 --> 00:41:45.760
 is

00:41:45.760 --> 00:41:46.700
 for

00:41:46.700 --> 00:41:47.420
 Jacob

00:41:47.420 --> 00:41:48.300
 and

00:41:48.300 --> 00:41:48.460
 if

00:41:48.460 --> 00:41:48.760
 God

00:41:48.760 --> 00:41:48.960
 is

00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:49.560
 for

00:41:49.560 --> 00:41:50.060
 him

00:41:50.060 --> 00:41:50.820
 then

00:41:50.820 --> 00:41:51.300
 whatever

00:41:51.300 --> 00:41:51.740
 Laban

00:41:51.740 --> 00:41:52.019
 has

00:41:52.019 --> 00:41:52.200
 to

00:41:52.200 --> 00:41:52.560
 do

00:41:52.560 --> 00:41:53.080
 it

00:41:53.080 --> 00:41:53.320
 will

00:41:53.320 --> 00:41:53.580
 not

00:41:53.580 --> 00:41:54.000
 overcome

00:41:54.000 --> 00:41:54.600
 God's

00:41:54.600 --> 00:41:54.980
 commitment

00:41:54.980 --> 00:41:55.460
 to

00:41:55.460 --> 00:41:56.080
 prosper

00:41:56.080 --> 00:41:56.580
 Jacob

00:41:56.580 --> 00:41:56.800
 will

00:41:56.800 --> 00:41:56.960
 it

00:41:56.960 --> 00:41:58.140
 if

00:41:58.140 --> 00:41:58.460
 God

00:41:58.460 --> 00:41:58.660
 is

00:41:58.660 --> 00:41:59.220
 for

00:41:59.220 --> 00:41:59.980
 Jacob

00:41:59.980 --> 00:42:01.140
 Jacob

00:42:01.140 --> 00:42:01.340
 is

00:42:01.340 --> 00:42:01.960
 invincible

00:42:01.960 --> 00:42:02.800
 until

00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:03.120
 God's

00:42:03.120 --> 00:42:03.420
 purposes

00:42:03.420 --> 00:42:03.640
 are

00:42:03.640 --> 00:42:03.900
 done

00:42:03.900 --> 00:42:05.019
 if

00:42:05.019 --> 00:42:05.260
 God

00:42:05.260 --> 00:42:05.400
 is

00:42:05.400 --> 00:42:05.740
 for

00:42:05.740 --> 00:42:06.360
 Jacob

00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:07.200
 then

00:42:07.200 --> 00:42:07.500
 Jacob

00:42:07.500 --> 00:42:07.720
 has

00:42:07.720 --> 00:42:08.360
 everything

00:42:08.360 --> 00:42:08.720
 he

00:42:08.720 --> 00:42:09.180
 needs

00:42:09.180 --> 00:42:09.380
 whether

00:42:09.380 --> 00:42:09.560
 he

00:42:09.560 --> 00:42:09.720
 has

00:42:09.720 --> 00:42:10.019
 little

00:42:10.019 --> 00:42:10.199
 or

00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:10.480
 has

00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:10.960
 much

00:42:10.960 --> 00:42:11.900
 if

00:42:11.900 --> 00:42:12.159
 God

00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:12.320
 is

00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:12.699
 for

00:42:12.699 --> 00:42:13.360
 Jacob

00:42:13.360 --> 00:42:14.579
 nothing

00:42:14.579 --> 00:42:14.840
 no

00:42:14.840 --> 00:42:15.380
 scheme

00:42:15.380 --> 00:42:15.679
 of

00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:16.119
 Laban

00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:16.320
 can

00:42:16.320 --> 00:42:16.739
 ever

00:42:16.739 --> 00:42:17.699
 overcome

00:42:17.699 --> 00:42:18.880
 Jacob

00:42:18.880 --> 00:42:21.519
 early

00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:21.860
 the next

00:42:21.860 --> 00:42:22.259
 morning

00:42:22.259 --> 00:42:23.320
 Laban

00:42:23.320 --> 00:42:23.739
 rises

00:42:23.739 --> 00:42:23.960
 he

00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:24.219
 kisses

00:42:24.219 --> 00:42:24.420
 his

00:42:24.420 --> 00:42:24.920
 grandchildren

00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:25.159
 his

00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:25.420
 daughters

00:42:25.420 --> 00:42:25.759
 goodbye

00:42:25.759 --> 00:42:26.099
 they

00:42:26.099 --> 00:42:26.739
 they

00:42:26.739 --> 00:42:26.940
 make

00:42:26.940 --> 00:42:27.300
 peace

00:42:27.300 --> 00:42:27.440
 they

00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:27.659
 make

00:42:27.659 --> 00:42:27.820
 a

00:42:27.820 --> 00:42:28.099
 covenant

00:42:28.099 --> 00:42:28.519
 here

00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:28.739
 they

00:42:28.739 --> 00:42:29.139
 they

00:42:29.139 --> 00:42:29.480
 wind

00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:29.739
 up

00:42:29.739 --> 00:42:29.820
 in

00:42:29.820 --> 00:42:29.920
 a

00:42:29.920 --> 00:42:30.340
 position

00:42:30.340 --> 00:42:30.639
 of

00:42:30.639 --> 00:42:30.900
 an

00:42:30.900 --> 00:42:31.360
 agreement

00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:31.639
 to

00:42:31.639 --> 00:42:32.019
 separate

00:42:32.019 --> 00:42:32.360
 and

00:42:32.360 --> 00:42:32.539
 go

00:42:32.539 --> 00:42:32.759
 their

00:42:32.759 --> 00:42:33.019
 own

00:42:33.019 --> 00:42:33.380
 way

00:42:33.380 --> 00:42:34.639
 there
