What does the Bible say about God's promises to Jacob?

Answered in 2 sources

God promised Jacob the land he was lying on and assured him of his presence, watching over him wherever he went.

In Genesis 28, God reveals Himself to Jacob in a dream, promising him the land on which he is lying, stating that his descendants will be numerous and that all peoples will be blessed through him. This promise underlines God's sovereign election and grace, as Jacob was chosen before he had done anything good or evil. This reassurance of God's unbreakable covenantal promise to Jacob, despite his circumstances, reflects the essence of divine favor and protection over the elect.
