THE JOURNEY OF LIFE

"Now Jacob left Beersheba [never to see his mother again] and traveled toward Haran. Genesis 28:10 AMP

Esau had planned to kill his brother Jacob after mourning their father, but their mother heard Esau's plan and she immediately told Jacob to flee for his life to his uncle's place at Haran. Jacob is running for his life; he is scared, carrying deep pain inside, feeling guilty and remorseful for what he has done. 

Life is a journey and we are all in a journey. There are different journeys with different destinations but only one journey leads to the perfect destination. In this journey, God provides and He also takes care of you; just as He provided for Adam in the garden of Eden. God also protects you in the journey of life; He told Jacob in verse 15 "I am with you and will watch (keep) over you." In other words, God is saying do not fear the dangers the world has such as: attacks, sickness, disease, crime, wicked people, etc. He has promised to watch over you and certainly that is enough. 

He says "I will not leave you, this is a personal guarantee from God Himself. There maybe obstacles in your journey but be rest assured that you're not alone. Whatever you're going through right now should not stop you from where you're going to. Be totally assured and confident that when God is in control, nothing gets out of control. Enjoy every moment of the journey. 

Further Scripture Study: Hebrews 13:5 

Declare This: Dear Father, It's with great joy in my heart to know that You are with me throughout my journey of life. Thank You for Your covering, guidance and direction as I go through this adventure of life in Jesus name Amen.
