What You See Is What You Get
Pastor Mike Hendon

• Everyone operates by a system of CORE VALUES and a CORE BELIEF system. • It is the basis of decisions, direction, and destination. • Many things have changed in the last 50 years in our country. Technology has brought about epic change.

• Along with many changes the question is what are our core values and beliefs and are they impacting culture or is culture impacting us?

• Genesis 28 • Then Isaac called Jacob and blessed him, and charged him, and said to him: “You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan. 2 Arise, go to Padan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother’s father; and take yourself a wife from there of the daughters of Laban your mother’s brother.

• “May God Almighty bless you, • And make you fruitful and multiply you, • That you may be an assembly of peoples; And give you the blessing of Abraham, • To you and your descendants with you, • That you may inherit the land • In which you are a stranger, • Which God gave to Abraham.”

• See all of this may seem narrow and limiting yet it is for a purpose. It is about core values and beliefs. • Jacob had some poor core values and even his belief system was subject. • He was a liar, a cheater, a manipulator, selfish, and proud.

• So God puts him in PROCESS • He goes to Laban, a relative, and meets Rachel whom he loves. He works 7 years—but gets tricked. • He gives another 7 years for Rachel and Laban is trying to keep him because he is blessing Laban’s house.

• After 14 years of lying and distrust Jacob decides it is time to go. • He asks for whatever is his but Laban tries to work more deceit. • Name your wages yet he knew he would be cheated. • They struck a deal. • This is not a lesson in agriculture but reproduction

• How God’s sheep reproduce • Watering Hole- the place of reflection
– Gazing and Meditating

• We were created I God’s IMAGE!

• Did you ever notice how we reproduce from a negative many times. • We spend most of our lives reacting to what we don’t want to be instead of RESPONDING to God’s call on our lives.
