Jacob, though very prosperous, went through so much in his life that he cried out in Genesis 42:36, “All these things are against me.” This is an issue that is seldom addressed in the body of Christ.

Prayer: “Lord help us to endure and continue to trust you in all we may be going through. Help us not to quit or become fainthearted but to remain faithful to you. Thank you Jesus for seeing me through to victory! In Jesus name, amen.”
