Genesis 28 · Grade 2

God Is With You

Name Date

Read the Story

Jacob had to leave home. He walked a long way. When the sun went down, he lay down to sleep outside. He used a stone for a pillow.

Jacob had a dream. He saw a stairway that reached all the way to heaven. Angels were going up and down on it. The Lord stood above it and promised to be with Jacob and keep him wherever he went.

Jacob woke up and said, Surely Yahweh is in this place. He set up his stone pillow as a marker. He named the place Bethel, which means house of God.

Memory Verse

Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you until I have done that which I have spoken of to you.”

Genesis 28:15 (WEB)
