This section of Scripture is a beautifully written Hebrew poem - the prophetic blessing of Jacob upon his 12 sons. As you study this ancient text, two things will become apparent:
1. Each son has a unique destiny related to his personal character and faith.
2. All 12 sons share one common overarching blessing based solely on God's redemptive grace.
In life, the tension between these two truths must be held in balance. The law of sowing and reaping is a fact, even for believers today. In general, there are consequences for sin and rewards for righteousness.
But above and beyond this law operates the grace of God in Christ. Grace has the power to forgive and to enable US to reap where only CHRIST has sown.
Listen to this message and hear how these two truths work together. And find your hope in the Messianic promises of God given to his people, which still await their ultimate fulfillment in the coming kingdom of the Christ!
