Three Keys to Blessing

This sermon explores the pivotal transformation of Jacob in Genesis 32 as he prepares to reunite with his estranged brother, Esau. The author argues that Jacob’s life was defined by unhealthy striving and manipulation until he encountered a mysterious divine figure in a night-long wrestling match. This confrontation represents a preincarnate appearance of Jesus, who chose to fight with Jacob to bring him to a state of total submission and brokenness.
