“But his bow remained steady, his strong arms stayed limber, because of the hand of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,” Genesis 49:24 (NIV)
Our verse today brings us the words spoken by Jacob about his sons – specifically about Joseph, although he said much more than just these words. Joseph had become a very important and powerful man in Egypt after being sold into slavery by his brothers and unjustly accused of sexual assault and thrown into prison. Jacob recognized that God should have the credit for Joseph's accomplishments. Jacob's words of blessing and his commendation were really words of praise to God and that was very fitting. God deserves and must have our praise for His work in our lives too. Lets recognize today how much He is helping us each day and give Him the credit.
