Genesis 33:1 - 4

1 Jacob looked up and there was Esau, coming with his four hundred men; so he divided the children among Leah, Rachel and the two maidservants. 2 He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph in the rear. 3 He himself went on ahead and bowed down to the ground seven times as he approached his brother. 4 But Esau ran to meet Jacob and embraced him; he threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. And they wept. (Genesis 33:1-4)

God created humans. He lets us use whatever we need for both our body and soul. People try to get what they need in the world, thinking it is a blessing. The blessing given by the Lord is for humans to use the world and enjoy it as long as they live.

If the blessing under the world is used for the desires of sinful nature, it will decay into curses under sin. But if we use what the Lord has given for His glory, it will be eternal glory and richness for the time of our soul.

Worldly people aren't conscious that they are spiritual beings. They think that they just live once and die. So they don't think about their soul problem first. People are not conscious that they will live a limited life and also will live forever spiritually. There is no spiritual element in worldly culture which the flesh likes to enjoy. If someone uses it for gratifying the desires of sinful nature, they will be miserable that they didn't live for the time of their soul. The true blessing is for your soul to live richly forever in heaven. Jacob enjoyed his wealth with what he had in the world, but when realized that what he had was not true blessing at the Jabok river, he was miserable. (Genesis 32-33)

All he had and his own life were suddenly useless to save his life. In the world what is a 'blessing'? Jesus Christ wants to correct man's wrong knowledge-There is no eternal blessing in the world, only Jesus Christ is the eternal blessing. (John 14:6; Mark 9:23)

Our faith lets the Lord work through our impossibilities. (Mark 4:35-41). What Jesus did on the earth was to solve the impossibilities man that could not overcome. Only Jesus is the savior and Lord who solves our problems which are impossible to man.

Dear brothers and sisters, what problems do you have? Jacob realized his limitation. So he prayed to God, whose help is spiritual and the best blessings which are invisible. Jesus Christ came to help whoever comes to Him with problems.

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Stop your suffering immediately by Jesus. People cannot live without the Lord both in their earthly life and the time of soul after death.

The greatest problem of humans is sin  that the world cannot solve. God knew that so He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ to the world to be nailed on the cross to pay the wages of our sin. If you believe this, we will be saved from our sin. It is the only way for Jesus Christ to work to forgive our sin.

Dear saints, Do you complain that you are born? The painful time will end soon. If you have any problems spiritually or physically that you regard as your destiny or fate, solve it with Jesus. So many of those who met Jesus were free from suffering both body and soul. Dear brothers and sisters, let us be free from any impossibilities we have with Jesus who wants to help us. (Mark 16:17-18; John 14:13-14)
