Bible Verse: Genesis29: 15-35
Five Questions:
1. Who is
this guy Jacob? Tell me all you can
about him.
2. So
Abraham’s son Jacob has fallen in love with a beautiful woman, Rachel. He has
been working for his relative Laban and for pay he asks for Laban’s daughter
Rachel as payment. How does that sound
to you?
3. Have you
ever wanted something so badly it consumed your life? Would you have work 14 years or even 7 years
to get what it was you wanted?
4.
Jacob gets “tricked” by Laban into marrying Leah, he was
angry but remained married to her and worked another 7 years to get Rachel. Do
you think he was wise and faithful or just stubborn?
5.
Jacob was the “trust” child of Abraham and Sarah. He knows God’s promise to his father to
create a whole people from him. He learns to trust God even though Laban tricks
him. Rachel his wife will also learn to
trust God. Do these stories help you learn
to trust God’s promises?
