Fiveamprayer, we have to determine who we are listening to?  The word of Almighty God or the lies of satan.  We have in scripture that the heavenly angels have been given charge over us to protect us--yet satan in the wilderness twists this scripture in the temptation of Yeshua to test the Lord God.  That is how he operates with some sibilance of truth mixed in with the lie.  Unfortunately many will be deceived into believing the lie.  In this book of Genesis we see the two sons of Abraham one by Sarah and the other by Hagar which are the fountain-heads of two great nations that are battling one another from the very beginning even until today.  This open hostility was not the first time we will see seed at war with seed.  The brothers Cain and Abel are the first that come from the same womb, yet one is influenced to murder by the lies of the enemy.  The offering that Cain brought was not acceptable by Adonai because it was a bloodless offering unlike the offering that Abel brought.  From the time of Genesis 3:15, the serpent has been trying to undermine and reverse what Yahweh had placed on him.  In his desire to be elevated, he contrives many plots and moves to influence those who would prosper his plan.  All to no avail.  That which the Almighty God, the Ancient of Days has set forth from His mouth will stand and not return void.  So there is no worry, in the end we win!!  But will we fall prey to the lies and not go out and search for the truth?!  Yahweh will allow us to find it--when we seek Him with out whole heart.  With a single intention of knowing Him better to go from merely hearing about Him to knowing Him personally for yourself. 
The other seeds we find against each other are in the womb of Rebecca--Esau and Jacob.  This was even evidenced by the time of their birth that Jacob came out grasping Esau's heel.  Often Jacobs name is translated as trickster and supplanter.  The word hand in Hebrew is yad and the word heel is akav which is hand on the heel.  It is thought that Jacob had his hand on Esau's heel to keep the heel from crushing his head.  Esau the firstborn who according to custom and culture was to receive the inheritance, did not regard it.  That according to plan it was passed to Jacob.  Fiveamprayer there is a seed that follows all that the Lord God Almighty has given them to.  On the opposite side there is the other seed that follows differing instructions to their downfall.  We are the seed of Abraham by faith.  The only seed of Abraham that was to receive the promise, the covenant that Elohim gave before he had any children.  To listen to this message again, click here.
