Jacob’s Great VictoryPart 1

“And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me” (Genesis 32:24-26).

There are times in our life, when like Jacob, we are left alone with the Lord. These are often times when the Lord wants to tell us something in secret or teach us some special lesson. In this incident in the life of Jacob we find him alone and wrestling with “a man.” Note that it was not only for a few minutes, but it took until the break of day. Jacob had put his whole strength into this fight with all his natural capabilities and human knowledge of wrestling. And make no mistake, he showed the man that he was a strong fighter. When the man said, “Let Me go,” Jacob recognized him as the Lord and asked for a blessing. However, the blessing could not come without touching the hollow of his thigh. So it is in our life. The Lord must allow something to show us our own weakness, before we will rely wholly on His power.
