Genesis 27:24 New International Version (NIV)
24 “Are you really my son Esau?” he asked.
“I am,” he replied.
Jacob got the blessing he wanted. He deceived his father, and it cost him. He never saw his mother again. His brother wanted to kill him. He got deceived by his uncle Laban. His family was in constant turmoil. Esau founded an enemy nation. He was exiled from his family. Jacob’s life would have been different had he waited for God to work, but he pushed to move things on his time frame. Jacob would have received the birthright and blessing anyway. Have you ever pushed your agenda and did not wait on God’s timing? Learn how to lean into God’s timing. When you do, God’s plan unfolds in the best way. God’s timing is the best timing.
