Open Heavens of Unusual Miraculous Occurrences.
“And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto Laban’s cattle. And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods. But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s. And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
Genesis 31:40-43. KJV.”
A wise man summed up the world we lived in, he said; if every household has a tree that grow money in each compound, some people will still not be satisfied with their lot and will want to possess the ones in the other houses as well! What a world of greed!
Jacob served his father in-law for an astonishing twenty years of hard and oppressive years, yet, Laban is never interested in letting him go, that’s why the man did an unusual thing recorded once in the entire scripture, he gave his two daughters to one man to marry! This is meant to tie him down perpetually serving him for nothing!
But Jehovah paid Jacob back for the oppressive service, the agreement on the wages to be received ends up in Jacob’s favour, thereby, what Laban thought will tie him down actually work for his good. God thereby gave Jacob an unusual miracle.
Reflection: whatever favour or gifts you received that corrupted your virtues is meant to immobilize you.
