Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Genesis 32:7-12

7In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels.
8He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.”
9Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’
10I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps.
11Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children with me.
12But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’”
— Genesis 32:7-12
