Wrestling with God Week 1

Written By Kylee Breems

Questions

  • Pray and invite God into this time with Him.

  • Read Genesis 25:19-21. 

  • Do you pray over the people in your life? If not, how can you start incorporating them into your prayer life? 

  • Read Genesis 25:22-26. 

  • Even before they were born, Jacob was trying to take what wasn’t his from his older brother, Esau. What are things in your life that you’re grabbing for that aren’t yours? How can you change your perspective from one of jealousy to one of gratitude? 

  • Read Genesis 25:27–34. 

  • What are you willing to trade for temporary satisfaction? How does this challenge your priorities in life? 

  • How often do you make decisions based on short-term reward rather than thinking of the long-term?


Spiritual Practice
Prayer: Spend time in prayer with God. Tell Him that you want to stop trading your future. Cry out for His help. Ask Him to give you the strength it takes to admit what you’re struggling with and to ask for help.
