SEED OF DISCORD

 

How could Rebecca wife of Isaac and the sister of Laban sown seed of discord between two brothers who happened to be her own children?

Woman, Woman, Woman, you need to check yourself because this same attitude that was seen in Rebecca's life had  become common phenomenon amongst women nowadays. (Having soft spot for one child above others.)

How could it have been Rebecca (their Mother) that plotted the whole act and later sold such idea to Jacob her loved son?

Jacob did not initially had that idea because the scripture showed that he (Jacob) was afraid (Gen.27: 6-11 NIV “Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Look, I overheard your father say to your brother Esau, ⁷ ‘Bring me some game and prepare me some tasty food to eat, so that I may give you my blessing in the presence of the Lord before I die.’ ⁸ Now, my son, listen carefully and do what I tell you: ⁹ Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so I can prepare some tasty food for your father, just the way he likes it. ¹⁰ Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may give you his blessing before he dies.”

¹¹ Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “But my brother Esau is a hairy man while I have smooth skin. ¹² What if my father touches me? I would appear to be tricking him and would bring down a curse on myself rather than a blessing.”)

Through this act of hers, Rebecca created enmity between the two sons, which later took Jacob into hiding away from his senior brother Esau for over 20yrs and thereby caused his mother not see him till her death. Hmm, what a life?

Are you doing the same thing right now Woman/Man?

If, I wish to let you know that such act normally results into negativity and which does not last long.

Take Heed and REPENT NOW……….
