Jacob - Wrestling with God
Genesis 32:24-31
Skip Heitzig
| Genesis 32 (NKJV™) | |
| 24 | Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day. |
| 25 | Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. |
| 26 | And He said, "Let Me go, for the day breaks." But he said, "I will not let You go unless You bless me!" |
| 27 | So He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob." |
| 28 | And He said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed." |
| 29 | Then Jacob asked, saying, "Tell me Your name, I pray." And He said, "Why is it that you ask about My name?" And He blessed him there. |
| 30 | And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." |
| 31 | Just as he crossed over Penuel the sun rose on him, and he limped on his hip. |
