About this episode

This sermon explores Jacob's lifelong struggle with God and the significance of wrestling with faith and trust.

Is it good to wrestle the Maker of Heaven and Earth? That is the question we are left asking as Jacob grapples with God in this passage. Indeed, Jacob has been wrestling with God his whole life. In this sermon we will discover that wrestling with God means trusting in him through unbelief. To find this, we will look at the character of Jacob, the attributes of God, and the three ways that Jacob has prevailed.
