Your Name is Jacob.

God found Jacob in Shechem in trouble. God always finds his elect in trouble for “…man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.” (Job 14: 1) He instructed him to go up to Bethel. Bethel means House of God. Bethel is the place where Gods presence and the glory of his great name are made known. God’s first order of business with the sinner is to make him own up to his own name. God makes to Jacob four declarations that sum up the work of God in the hearts of all those drawn of God into his house.

First: he tells him his name: Thy name is Jacob: Jacob the finagler. Always trying to scheme and arrange things to his advantage. Jacob, the business man, who is always trying to make deals and covenants to get what he wanted. Every natural man is a Jacob who endeavors to accomplish salvation and blessings by the power of his flesh.

Secondly: God says, “Thy name shall not be called any more Jacob.” By an act of sovereign free grace, God has intervened in the life of his elect and redefines the way he is to be identified in this world.

Thirdly: The Lord tells him, “Israel shall be thy name.” In that day, that final day of glory and resurrection, you will be before the throne of my majesty and numbered with those given me of my Father all of who bear the name Israel.

Fourthly: God called him Israel. Right then and there still in his sins, still feeling his rebellion and knowing his ignorance. God calls his elect now what he called them in their final perfection. In spite of what he is God treats him as a prince and a son and blesses him over all the other sons of Adam.

May God be pleased by his grace to reveal these four great truths and make them the reality of our experience of grace.
