Genesis 28, Jacob takes a nap, has a dream/vision about angels going up and down a ladder, God speaks some promises to him and then he wakes up.  After waking up, he says “If God will be with me, and keep me in this way that I am going, and give me bread to eat and clothing to put on, so that I come back to my father’s house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God.”

Jacob doesn’t seem to really get it.  He seems lost.  He has deceived or manipulated his brother twice.  He has the blessing of his father, but it appears to mean nothing to him besides the monetary gain.  Now he meets with God and he gives an if/then statement.  I am very glad that God held up His end of the deal so that Jacob ended up making Him his God.  Otherwise, things might not have ended up so well.
