The Hand of God Covers Us

Sep 14, 2025    Jesse Schettler

In this exploration of Genesis 3, we uncover the truth about humanity's need for God's covering. The story of Adam and Eve's fall reveals how sin broke our relationship with God, bringing shame, fear, and separation. But even in our rebellion, we see God's incredible grace. He doesn't abandon us; instead, He provides coverings and continues to pursue us. This narrative reminds us that our fundamental problem isn't 'others,' but the sin within each of us. Yet, God's response is not anger, but love. He promises ultimate victory through the offspring of the woman, foreshadowing Christ's redemptive work. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to recognize our own need for God's covering and to embrace His unending grace in our lives.
