SELLING OUT TOO CHEAP 1

Genesis 25:28-34 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob. (29) And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: (30) And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. (31) And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. (32) And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? (33) And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. (34) Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. In these verses we find that Esau sold something that was very important for a meal that was just enough to quench his appetite for a moment. Once it was gone he could never get it back. I personally feel that he sold out way too cheap. The next few devotionals will be about people who sold out too cheap. I believe that many today are selling out too cheaply. They give up things they can never get back just to satisfy the appetite for the moment.
