BACK TO BETHEL




Jacob ran away from his brother Esau
after supposedly stealing his blessing. He
left Beersheba with fright heading
towards Haran. On the way, there was an
encounter Jacob had that was to be a
memorable one. He got to a certain place
on his journey. He had to rest at the place
as it was getting to night time. He took a
stone for a pillow-this really showed the
poverty state of Jacob. He had a vision
that made him to realize God was in that
place originally called Luz.

He exclaimed:

“‘Surely, the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it.’ And he was afraid and said, ‘How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven!’” (Gen 28:16-17).
