Despite the Deceit (Genesis 27:18-29)
Feb 2, 2025 • Josh Lot
In this sermon on Genesis 27:18-29, Josh explores how God works despite human deception, using the story of Jacob stealing Esau's blessing as a framework. The sermon examines how we often try to manipulate circumstances to receive God's blessing, much like Jacob wearing Esau's clothes to deceive Isaac. However, the deeper message reveals that through Christ, we don't need to pretend to be something we're not - we are already heirs to God's promises through faith. The sermon challenges Christians to live authentically rather than merely wearing the outward appearance of faith, emphasizing that true security in Christ frees us from the need for deception and enables us to show genuine mercy to others.
