If we want to experience God's blessing and strength, total dependence on Him is a must. But outside of painful experience, we rarely discover this fact.
Jacob is a prime example. He has long been a victim of his own machinations. Jacob had a plan, even though he was upset to learn that his brother Esau, whom he had mistreated, was coming with 400 soldiers. He made an effort to ensure that, in the event of an attack, half of his family would live. Then, Jacob was engaged in a wrestling match with a "Man" (God in human form). Just before daybreak, the Man used a simple touch to dislocate Jacob's hip as proof of His deity.
Jacob was left with no choice but to cling to the Man and beg for His favor (Gen. 32:26; Hos. 12:4). This marked a turning moment in Jacob's life when he realized that only the Lord can provide blessings.
We must understand that relying on God is the only way to enjoy His favor and provision.
We will find God to be completely dependable if we completely rely on Him. Once we cease coming up with our own ideas and stop implementing our own plans,
Stop all your futile efforts because God will intervene in grace and strength!
