Jacob: The Struggle for Blessing #2 - The Struggle for Blessing

Jacob's struggle for blessing leaves him running for his life. He sleeps with a stone for a pillow, with heaven seemingly closed, but God comes down and promises His presence and blessing. Jesus identifies Himself as Jacob's stairway, fulfilling every requirement and opening heaven through His death and resurrection. Because Jesus permanently links His people to God, they can trust His unseen work in their troubles, confess their sins, and know they are never alone.
