—Genesis 28:10-22

Can you imagine having such a dream? Do you believe God speaks to people today through dreams? Jacob would have known his grandfather, Abraham. Their lives overlapped by fifteen years. He had heard the stories and likely even witnessed Abraham’s walking, talking relationship with God. So, Jacob believed. Here again is the very reason these patriarchs are in the Hall of Faith of Hebrews 11. They believed. They responded in faith. Because they did, God fulfilled His promise and all of us have been blessed. When God speaks to us, in whatever way He chooses, we must believe and follow through in faith so that others may be blessed.
