Battle of Jealousy
Topic: Living Life

And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan. These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours. And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him. (Genesis 37:1-4 KJV)

Have you been compared yourself with the other people? We all may have been jealous to something or someone. Like Esau and Jacob, we sometimes to create argument with one another by just being jealous. Even though it’s an emotional stress, we have no reason to jealous about in life.

In Genesis 37, we see that Joseph’s brothers hated him because their father, Jacob (Israel), only favored his youngest son, Joseph. Israel’s pass memory still has corrupted him. He cannot let go why his father made him the second class and not to Esau. The battle begins within the family and not from the two foreign countries. Since Cain killed his brother, we have so divided up with lands. Why? We learned that the other foreign countries hated us.

Let’s look to Islamic religion for a moment. Although the word “Islam” means peace, we cannot have a peace with them until we’d surrender our Christianity heritage. They decide to fight against Christians because we are helping our brethrens, Jewish nation—Israel. Because Satan hates to see us to helping our Jewish brethrens, he is trying to use the Islamic nations to try to wipe the lands of Israel and United State from the global map.

Jealousy is a sin and it can be destroyed our relationships with our people. We cannot let God be jealous by astray from Him. The Bible says that He is a jealous God. This means that there is no room for other gods to join with Him to govern the universe.

As we read through Genesis 37, his brothers hated him even more, because Joseph blabbered his visions to them to show-off. We should try to untie with each other through the love of Jesus Christ rather than to tearing apart.
