STORY Bible in a Year: Fleeing Laban Scripture Then the Lord said to Jacob, 'Go back to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be with you.' Genesis 31:3 When do you know it’s time to flee a toxic environment? Sometimes, it’s hard to tell because the place that’s bad for us can often be the most comfortable. Jacob had to listen closely to God. When the time came to flee, he listened and boldly stepped into the unknown. Despite fearing potential conflict with Laban and his brother, Esau, Jacob sets out with his family and possessions, chasing the promise of a better future.

GENESIS 31:21 Dear Lord, as the story in Genesis 31:17-55 unfolds let the truths of this story minister to my soul. Lord, today I will stand in a place of gratitude for every season that I go through, I will look for the good that You've hidden in each trial and tribulation. Like Jacob, even when I don’t feel honored nor appreciated by others, I will hold my integrity and do everything with excellence knowing that as I water the field that I'm entrusted with, I am actually preparing myself to step into the greatest harvest season of my life. Give me the wisdom and knowledge to travel and build with people of integrity and honesty. Thank You God for speaking on my behalf and for protecting me from others who would seek to harm and hinder me. I declare that I am covered and I decree that under Your protection Lord I am untouchable. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.🙏🏾Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jarvis-kingston--1517583/support.Repent and Get Baptized
