Gen 28:16
And
Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the Lord is in this place;
and I knew it not.
Jacob was sleeping. The Lord appeared to him in a dream and let
him know that the land upon which he slept was promised to him. We, like Jacob, could be sleeping on things
that the Lord wants to give us. When
Jacob awakened he told himself that the Lord was in this place and he didn’t
know it. The Lord’s presence is not
always so spectacular. His power is not
always so demanding. Oftentimes the Lord
is in something and we are practically sleeping and not recognizing He is in
it. His promises and presence are not
always pushing their way into our perspective.
We, like Jacob, must awaken to His presence and the promises He has
already given us. Lord, show us the
places where you are and we have yet to recognize!
