Based on: Genesis 33:13-14 (CEB)

13 But Jacob said to him, “My master knows that the children aren’t strong and that I am responsible for the nursing flocks and cattle. If I push them hard for even one day, all of the flocks will die. 14 My master, go on ahead of your servant, but I’ve got to take it easy, going only as fast as the animals in front of me and the children are able to go, until I meet you in Seir.”

Excerpt: 

It is worth noting that each time that Jacob had an encounter with God he had stopped to rest. It was in his resting state that he received a vision of God. It was in his resting state that he received the promises of God. It was in his resting state that he received the blessing of God.
