Title: God's Way 34.HWP
Rachel, who was troubled because she could not have a son, finally gave birth to a son.
1, God humbled Rachel
Rachel had a physical beauty compared to Leah.
(Ge 29:17-17) Leah lacks eyesight, and Rachel is beautiful and beautiful.
Also, because of that reason, she faltered in Jacob's love. So Rachel must have had human superiority and pride. If she had had a son before Leah, her pride would have reached its peak, and it would have been difficult for her to receive God's favor.
God humbled her that she was childless while Ernie and her servants bore 10 sons.
God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble.
(1 Peter 5:5-5) In the same way, young men, submit to your elders, and all of you, gird yourself with humility toward one another.
God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
(James 4:10-10) Humble before the Lord, and the Lord will exalt you.
2. God Breaks Human Ways
Rachel quarreled with her husband over a ruthless matter because she did not remember God's providence
Because. As a result, she made her maid lie with Jacob and gave birth to a son (3-8), which was used as an aphrodisiac.
The human method (14-16) was mobilized to obtain the conjugation.
However, human methods did not work.
3. God Thinks of Rachel
Rachel conceived not because she had mandrakes, but because God had thought of her.
In other words, because God gave her the grace to open her womb, she was able to conceive.
God humbled her first and gave you a son who would not have worked for you in a human way.
that's what you did
The saints must not be in a hurry to wait for God's generation.
We must also be sure that the power of God to make the impossible possible is constantly being shown in the lives of believers today.
