Sermon: When the Tables Turn (Genesis 29-31)

In Genesis 29-31, we witness a powerful theme: what we sow, we reap (Galatians 6:7). Jacob, the deceiver, is deceived. Rachel and Leah’s rivalry exposes the dangers of seeking approval from man instead of God. Through it all, God remains faithful, working even through human weakness to fulfill His purposes.

• Jacob’s marriages & deception by Laban
• Leah’s longing for love & Rachel’s struggle with envy
• God's providence in Jacob’s prosperity & return to Canaan
• The consequences of doing things our way instead of God’s way

Are you trusting in God’s plan, or striving in your own strength? Let’s dive deep into these truths together.
