about

Gen. 32:26 … but Jacob said “I will not let you go unless you bless me ...” It seems to be a totally audacious demand – even to the modern casual reader of the Scripture but the blessing had been a divine promise even before his birth. His life had taken some pretty strange turns but the promised blessing was still very much a part of his motivation. But God was pleased to honor his tenacity, and eventually Jacob would become the patriarch of the twelve tribes of Israel. God is still looking for saints who will develop that “pit-bull mentality” in regards to all of His promises. God invites all of us to put Him to the test and see if He will not pour out a blessing that we will not be able to contain.

lyrics

Lord I won't let You go 'til You bless me - 'til Your promises all come true
' Doesn't matter to me just how long it may take I'm going to hang on to You
I've made some mistakes that I truly regret but I've left them all behind
At the end of the day when my struggles are done Your promise is still on my mind



I won't let You go when my strength is all gone and I'm facing the threat of defeat
When it seems like the only thing left to do is to turn away and retreat
But I haven't come this far by faith just to run away and hide
I'm going to keep holding on to You in spite of the tears that I've cried


I won't let You go when the pleasures of life try to draw me away from Your love
While the only thrill that I'm longing for is the peace that comes from above
But I know Your joy will be my strength for whatever I face today
And the path that's leading me on to You – for me it's the only Way


I won't let You go when the finish line comes into view not so far away
When I've fought the fight and I've finished the course that You set before me each day
When I lay my crown at Your nail-scarred feet in final surrender to You
I'll be satisfied just knowing I've done everything that You told me to do
