WHEN OTHERS ARE PREFERRED ABOVE YOU. Genesis 29:31 And when the LORD saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb..... Have you ever been in a situation where your being sidelined irrespective of your gifts? Are others promoted while you are relegated even though you've worked hard and are well deserving? Well let's dive into the biblical family of Jacob. Jacob favoured Racheal, more than leah his first wife to the extent of taking the firstborn's birthright, which entitles a firstborn to a larger inheritance in Jewish law, from Reuben, his oldest and Leah's son, to Joseph, who was his second-youngest son and Rachel's son. He even used Leah and her Children which were born to him as human Shield when he wanted to see his brother Esau. What do you think Leah would have felt? God saw this partiality, and blessed Leah. Among Jacobs Children, 3 became very great and amongst these 3, two of them were Leah's Children; Levi who became the tribe of priests, and Judah who David was a descendant of, and also the Lion of the tribe of Judah (Jesus) is a descendant. The third was Joseph Rachel's son who also became very great. Are you sidelined, don't worry. God is keeping you and preparing you for something really bigger than what your anticipating. Genesis 29, 33:2, Rev 5:5, 1Chron5:1, Mat 1:1. |
