Genesis 28: 20,21
"And Jacob vowed a vow, saying If God will be with me, and will
keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and
raiment to put on, So that I come again to my fathers house:
and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely
give the tenth unto thee."
God promised Jacob two things: He assured Jacob that he was the promise carrier of both the seed and the covenant of Abraham, He also assured him of his personal safety and blessing. Now anytime an offer is made one of two things must happen; Accept or Decline. Jacob Accepted these promises by faith and desired to commune with and to serve the Lord. Many see this as being the time of Jacob's conversion.
As believers in the works of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, we also have been promised several things of which we must; Accept or Decline: Redemption from sin, (Gal. 1:4; 1 John 2:1-2), Eternal Life, (John 6:47; 1 John 2:25), and a Comforter, (John 15:26; 16:7-8). If you have accepted this promises than you have also accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour. That means you have made a commitment to commune and to serve the Lord. If one declines, the penalty for sin is death, (Romans 6:23).
My friends Jacob is in the birth line of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, however he himself had to make the choice to accept or decline, after the Lord had came to him in a dream. (Gen 28:10-22). Through the Scriptures we know that he did. I pray that all who accepts God's promises, truly accepts them by faith, and commune and serve Our Lord Daily.
Amen!
