Con Man Conned

Genesis 29. I'm writing this on Monday night to let you know that I will be in a Sunday School conference in Macon, Georgia on Tuesday, when most of you will read this. I won't elaborate on Genesis 29 in great detail because 4:00 am will come too soon. But I do want to take the time to say "thank you" to all who read, and I hope that this "chapter by day" devotional has been of some help to you all. God bless each and everyone and be like the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily (Acts 17:11).

The Con Man Conned

Jacob who deceived his father was deceived by his father-in-law. This man known as the 'deceiver', the 'heel grabber', who passed himself off as the firstborn son, now receives Laban's firstborn daughter to be his wife. The con man is now conned. It's an inescapable law of life that that we eventually reap what we sow (Gal.6:7-8). As it has been said so many times, we can't sow bad seed and then pray for crop failure. We eventually reap what we sow. Let's sow good seed today. In fact, let's sow the seed of God's Word today. And then the harvest will be a good harvest!
