So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” ~ Genesis 32:24-26
The struggle may be long, it might be hard, but don’t let go. God does not show favoritism; if He blessed Jacob because he would not let go, then God will bless you as well if you don’t let go. So hold on, don’t let your struggle end in defeat, but rather, let it end with a blessing from God. Wrestle with God. Hold on to Him. God will not disappoint you. He will never let you down.
Heavenly Father from whom all blessings flow, let today be the day for a blessing for Your people. Let the long hard struggle of Your people end in blessings. Let them taste and see that the LORD is good, that they may know You care about and love them very much. Gather them around You as a mother hen gathers her chicks. Give them spiritual protection and strength to continue in the spiritual war before us. In Jesus name, I pray, amen.
