The angels of GOD ascending and descending upon the Son of Man

7/8/2014

 
And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran. And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to Heaven: and behold the angels of GOD ascending and descending on it. And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I AM the LORD GOD of Abraham thy father, and the GOD of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed; And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of. (Gen 28:10-15)

Jacob leaves because of the threat from Esau, and because his father sends him away to find a wife from his own family. On the way, Jacob has a dream where he sees a vision of the Lord, the ladder between Heaven and Earth, and the angels of Heaven going to and fro. The LORD renews the covenant and the promise to Jacob, and declares His presence and protection over Jacob, even to his return to this 'House of GOD'.

GOD keeps His promises, even when we fail Him. There are consequences along the way to our failure, but GOD is faithful and will never leave us or forsake us. He also will keep His promises to Israel, the Church has not replaced Israel, nor are the Jews no longer the people of the promise. GOD will complete all He has said He will do for His people.

Until that day, He has commanded His Church to be about His business; to minister to the hurting as He provides and equips, to disciple one another in love and in His Word, and to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to this lost and dying world. He has equipped us with all manner of Spiritual gifts according to His will, directed us to study that He may ingraft the Word in our hearts and minds, and sent us out as His witnesses with the Love of GOD, and the message of peace, to share the Gospel of grace with those we meet, that they may hear and believe, and believing have life in His Name.

For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. Turn away from your sIn and unrighteousness and trust what He has already done on that cruel Roman cross. Just as He provided for Jacob and kept His promises, He has provided forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, and is our Life. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life.

In Christ,
Jefferson Sweet
