God has earmarked a place for each of us, it your land, your space, and blessing.

When Jacob returned from the land of Mesopotamia, God appeared to him again and blessed him.

“I will give you the land which I gave to Abraham and to Isaac, and I will also give it to your descendants after you.” (Genesis 35:12)

God talks about giving to Jacob, the land he had given to Abraham and to Isaac. God also promises to pass on this land to the descendants of Jacob.

What about Esau?

Esau was the ancestor of the following Edomite tribes: Timna, Alvah, Jetheth, Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon, Kenaz, Teman, Mibzar, Magdiel, and Iram. The area where each of these tribes lived was known by the name of the tribe. (Genesis 36:40–43)

Esau also received his portion in the land of Edom, he was the ancestor to some Edomite tribes and area where each tribe lived was known by the name of tribe.

God provided land and space for Jacob and his descendants, and he also provided for Esau and his descendants.

In the same way, He will provide for each us : Our land, Our Space, and blessing.

You will receive your land, your space, and blessing, because God will provide. He did it for Israel and his descendants.

He(God) brought us(Israel) to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey. (Deuteronomy 26:9)

Who is Israel?

When Jacob returned from Mesopotamia, God appeared to him again and blessed him. God said to him, “Your name is Jacob, but from now on it will be Israel.” So God named him Israel. (Genesis 35:9–10)

Jacob is Israel, and God blessed him:

And God said to him, “I am Almighty God. Have many children. Nations will be descended from you, and you will be the ancestor of kings. (Genesis 35:11)

We must have no doubts, instead let us be in expectation, we shall locate our land, our space and blessings.

We shall all receive our portion of land, no one will be left out:

The Lord said to Moses, “Divide the land among the tribes, according to their size. Divide the land by drawing lots, and give a large share to a large tribe and a small one to a small tribe.” (Numbers 26:52–56)
