Throughout this series, we have looked at the variety of difficult circumstances we find ourselves in that cause us to ask the question, “Where is God?” As we conclude this series, we will look at a less negative yet extremely common question: Where is God when life is going fine? Moses gave the Israelites a speech with three important truths to remember as they were about to enter the blessing of the promise land: God did (rescue them from slavery), God is doing (sustaining them), and God deserves (our obedience).

As we conclude this series, we will look at a few of the last scenes of his life all the way to his passing. Right before Jacob dies, he takes time to bless his children and tell them of God’s goodness. In fact. This is the very thing that Jacob is honored for in the New Testament. Jacob’s blessing to his sons shows us that in the ups and downs of our journey, we will be imperfect, but we can tell the story of the perfect God.

Some people talk about encountering God’s presence in power and it can cause us to wonder, “Is something wrong with me?” or “why don’t I feel God in THAT way?” Comparing our experiences with others can cause us to wonder, “Where is God when I don’t feel His presence?” During this conversation, students will be reminded that while there are times God communicates in tangible and powerful ways, He also invites us on a journey of having faith, even when He seems far.

As we continue the story of Jacob, we witness one of the most bizarre scenes in his whole story: When he wrestled with God. When we walk through the story, we will see what happens when this man encounters God: He is given a new identity and is changed forever; why? Because God chose weakness to allow Jacob to be victorious. In the same way, God became weak by dying on the cross to redefine us and change us forever.

During this next portion of Jacob’s life we find him on the run, fearful for his life and separate from the community. This is what sin does within our stories, it leads to division and separation within our relationships, both with people and God. When we feel like what we’ve done or what we’re going through has separated us from God’s presence, we need to turn our heads, look up, and remember that God is always with us.

As we begin our series on Jacob, we will explore the most well known part of his journey: when he deceives his father and steals the blessing from his brother. Based on this story, you’d be surprised that Jacob would be a recipient of God’s promises and a foundation of His blessing! But God uses broken people to do beautiful things.
