A Piece Of A Sermon..."Just Hold On To Jesus" (2068 hits)
For all my church folks out there, I got a piece of a sermon that’s burning way down on the inside of me, “Just Hold On To Jesus.” I thought about it as I drove home from church one Sunday afternoon in November 2009. I finally got up enough courage to share it. Well, here it is:
Inspirational! Hold on tight and don't let go!

[I need help with the scripture text. Any suggestions?]
Genesis 32:22-32 Key verse taken from Gen. 32:26) And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. Subject or Text: ..."Just Hold On To Jesus"
Genesis 32:22-32 22) And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok. 23) And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had. 24) And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. 25) And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. 26) And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. 27) And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. 28) And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. 29) And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there. 30) And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. 31) And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh. 32) Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew that shrank.
Thanks Misrael for the feedback and thanks Jen for the scripture reference. Yes, verse 26 is very powerful.
