need

Jacob Rebuilt1. A desperate need (32:3-8)2. A prayer & a plan (32:9-20)

Lesson #2Prayer and planning are not

mutually exclusive

James 4:13-15 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”
