Scripture: Genesis 25:7-11, 19-34

“You contribute nothing to your salvation except the sin that made it necessary.” – Jonathan Edwards

+ God uses our prayer to fulfill His promises

+ God uses our weakness to fulfill his promises

+ God uses our opposition to fulfill his promises.

Philippians 3:18-21

“We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased.” – C.S. Lewis
