Devotional Day 13
By Pastor Larry Stockstill
(Psalm 11:4)
But the Lord is in his holy Temple; the Lord still rules from heaven. He watches everything closely, examining everyone on earth.
Poor Jacob thought his trickery of his father had gone unnoticed. He forgot that God was watching everything, and everybody, including him. Someone said, "you may get by, but you won't get away!" Little did Jacob know that God would discipline him by preparing someone even trickier than he to enter his life. "My child, don't ignore it when the Lord disciplines you and don't be discouraged when he corrects you. For the Lord corrects those he loves...." (Proverbs 3:11-12)
For seven long years Jacob served Laban for his daughter Rachel. Then, on the wedding night Laban tricked Jacob into marrying Leah. It is interesting that Jacob deceived his father in a tent, and later he himself was deceived in a tent! God will discipline you with the exact process you used on someone else. God loved Jacob and knew that until he met a superior deceiver, He would be tricking, deceiving and supplanting for the rest of his life.
Do not despise the Lords work in your life. He loves you and his discipline will yield "a quite harvest of right living."
(Hebrews 12:11)
The Prayer Of Salvation:
Dear Lord Jesus, I ask for your forgiveness of my sins, known, unknown, thought, deed, and word. I believe You died & rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I accept You as my Lord & Savior.
(Romans 10:13)NIV
Everyone who
calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
(Romans 10:9)NIV
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
(Acts 2: 38-39)NASB
38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”
