Life’s Greatest Battle
Based on Genesis 32: 22-31 Jacob wrestles with God
God’s angel comes to Jacob on the night before he meets with Esau and wrestles with him. Jacob struggles mightily and wins the match. God blesses him. Life is a series of struggles and battles to overcome. But not every battle will lead us to Life. We have to pick the right battle and fight the good fight.
