Genesis 28 Bible

Jacob’s ladder
“When
he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set.
Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep.
He
had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top
reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. There
above it stood the Lord,
and he said: “I am the Lord,
the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and
your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your
descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will
spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All
peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. I
am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will
bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what
I have promised you.” Genesis 28:11-15.
Did
you count 8 promises??? I did.
In verse 11, the Lord waited for Jacob to get uncomfortable
and isolated before He spoke to him, then he revealed to Jacob a connection
between Heaven and Earth and finally made him a promise. Sound familiar?
