' GOLDEN TEXT—God is our refuge and strength, a very present help In trouble,— Psalm *8:1. •'O God, our help In ages past OuT'hope for years to come, Our shelterfrom the stormy blast, And our eternal home," —Isaac Watts, How true it is that "God is our refuge an^ strength, a very present .help in tri able." Jacob found, ft so, even though his trouble came upon him because o f his own misdeeds, God .had prospered him at Haran, but in due time he was led by cir­ cumstance and by direct guidance to return to his own land (Gen, 31;l-3) .'Hindrances arose, but Jacob pressed on. As he came toward home, however, he recalled the sin which had caused him to flee. He remembered now how he had de­ frauded Esau and this I. Quilt’ Brought Fear (w . 2-8). , It always does. The sinful act of 20 years before now faced Jacob. He had left- it behind and had all but forgotten it. He had hoped that the years would cover it, but th«?y did not—and they never do, "B e sure, your sin will find you out” (Num, 32:23)—perhaps not this 'week or'this, year, or next; but-un­ til it is dealt with and forgiven it is there to rise up and plague you sooner or.later. ' s Jacob’s fear was increased by hearing that Esau came out to meet him with 400 men. He tried by his. own devices to meet the situation, but ultimately realized!that his. pre­ dicament had reached the point where only God could help him. . How like us, trying everything else until we realize its futility, and then turning to God, How* delightfully simplified life becomes when we turn to God first. Yet we are glad that Jacob’s IT. Fear Brought Prayer (vv. 9- 1 2 ) . It was real prayer, too, although, as W. H. Griffith Thomas suggests, it is strange ■that after his blessed personal experience with God he ad­ dressed. Him only as the God of hib fathers and : ot his own God (v. 9). Then; too, his faith seemed a bit weak, for it was coupled with great fear (v. 11). , We are told that fear is not a proper motive for turning men to God. Perhaps it .is not the highest motive,, but both in Scripture and in experience we find it to be true that fear often leads men,to God jn real repentance and ' faith. If the goodness and grace of God do not touch' man’s heart, it is assuredly far better that he should he saved through fear than to be eternally lost. ■Jacob, however, needed a further experience of dependence upon God before he could be brought back in peace into the .land. He was led to send everyone away so that he was alone when the Lord dealt with him and . III. Prayer Brought Blessing (vv. 27-29). . Jacob, who had by deceit taken the promise from Esau instead of awaiting God’s time to give it to him, was now about to attempt an­ other skillful scheme which would have won over Esau and sent Jacob into his land glorying in his own. ability. In spite of all God’s deal­ ings with him, he was still Jacob the supplanter. So God had to deal’ with him. We sometimes think of the grace of God only as that which brings us blessing and joy, but often God is being most gracious and consider­ ate of our .real need by sending op­ position and hardship. The divine visitor let Jacob strug­ gle all night, giving him a chance to submit of his own will; but when it was evident that he would not, he was shown that his own strength would not do, for he was made lame (V. 25). ' The very thing which made Jacob sure of his own strength became his weakest point at the touch of God. He was not the last one to learn that lesson. The comment of P . B, -Meyer on this entire scene is most helpful: "Note .that Jacob did not lay hold of this visitor, but the visitor lay hold o f him. This is not a picture o f a man coming to God, to wrestle with God in prayer, but a record of God coming to man, to break the spirit of stubbornness and self-sufficiency which a particular man has for too long a tirrle habitually manifested. All night these two wrestled, the one from heaven and the one of earth, and when, at the dawn of day, Jacob saw that he could not prevail against the man, in his ex- ’ haustion and Weariness he suddenly felt the touch of the Stranger’s hand on'his thigh. Immediately his thigh i was put of jPint, rendering him ab­ solutely helplessi But now Jacob 1 realized that the one with whom he ] had wrestled all night was a divine person; and, whereas early in the night he was held in the grip of the other, now he refused to releare his grasp of the visitor until he re­ ceived a blessing from him.” • Pipe, Valves, and Fittings for ] Water, gas atu) steam, Hand and jj i Electric Pumps far ail purposes, |j Beks.
