This verse teaches us  to persevere and never give up, especially when we are seeking to know God

“When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, ‘Let me go, for it is daybreak.’ But Jacob replied, ‘I will not let you go unless you bless me’” (Genesis 32:25-26).

This verse teaches us that our identity is in Christ, not what others think or say
