Jacob flees from Home

Greetings everyone
I'm very happy to post in this community for the very first time, Today being my very first time, I wish to share a little story about Jacob and Esau, I deeply know, this story is not new to us, but there is something in it, I want us to take note of. Join me as we delve into the story

After Esau discovered that he had lost his blessing, he was very angry. He said "soon my father will die, and then I will kill Jacob"
When Rebekah heard this, she said to Jacob, leave home and get out of Esau's sight before it is too late. Perhaps when he no longer sees you, he will forget his anger.

Jacob left home, beginning his long journey alone to Haran. One evening at sunset, he stopped to rest for the night. He took some stones for a pillow and lay down to sleep. That night he had a wonderful dream. He saw stairs leading up to heaven from the earth, and angels were coming down and going up on the stairs. At the top of the stairs, he saw the lord God standing. The Lord said to Jacob. "The land where you are shall be yours and your children's after you. I will make good care of you, and will bring you back again to this land.

In the morning, Jacob woke and said, The lord is in this place, and I did not know it. I thought I was all alone. This place is the house of God, it is the gate of heaven". Jacob made a pillar with the stones he had used for his pillow. He poured oil on it for a thanksgiving to God.

*Then Jacob journeyed on until at last he came to a well near the city of Haran. While waiting at the well, he met Rachel_his own cousin. He was so glad that he wept for joy.

At that moment Jacob to love Rachel. He longed to have her for his wife...
This message gives us a lesson that the angel of the lord encamped round about them that fear Him, and delivered them .* Jacob for once thought God has forsaken him and became very afraid and wanted to give up. but where it seems so difficult for the believer, that is where He make himself known to the believer and Redeemed Him.
No matter what happens in the journey of our life, we should bare in mind, God is forever with us and he Will keep charge over us..
The Ultimate thing is to Forever trust In him
I pray to the lord ...that may He protect you and guide you throughout your endeavors.
Shalom.....
