COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS Episode 10 March 2–8 | Genesis 24–33 “Let God Prevail”
Hey mamas Welcome to Week 10 of Come, Follow Me Moms, where we take the weekly Come, Follow Me lesson and pull out the meat and potatoes. I’m your host, Cassie Moore, mom of five (with twins on the way!) and I am so grateful you are here. This week’s reading covers Genesis 24–33 Grab your scriptures, your AirPods, and your favorite drink and let’s dig in. Because this week? There is family drama. Sibling rivalry. Marriage stress. Jealousy. Infertility. Favoritism. Deception. Bitterness. Running away. Twenty years of hard work. And then… wrestling with God. But there is also love. Forgiveness. Covenant. Healing. And God remembering His people. If you’ve ever thought: Why is family so hard? Why is marriage so refining? Why are my kids so different? Why does God allow this tension? Genesis 24–33 says: You are not alone. And the thread through all of it is this:
Let God prevail.
Section 1: Covenant Marriage Matters (Genesis 24) Abraham sends his servant on a ten-camel journey to find a wife for Isaac. Not just any wife. Not a Canaanite. A covenant wife. This wasn’t about romance. It was about covenant. Rebekah wasn’t chosen because she was beautiful. She was chosen because she was kind. She offered to water ten camels. A single camel can drink around 30 gallons of water. That is WORK. She was generous. Quick to serve. Hospitable. Faithful. Marriage in the scriptures is never casual. It is sacred. Eternal. Covenant-centered. Letting God prevail in your marriage looks like: Choosing love Speaking gently Remembering why you covenanted Praying together Staying when it’s hard Covenant brings power. You don’t build a strong marriage by accident. You build it on purpose.
Section 2: Birthright vs. Pottage (Genesis 25) Esau trades his birthright for a bowl of stew. He was hungry. He wanted relief. He wanted something immediate. But birthright meant: Double inheritance Spiritual leadership Covenant promises Sometimes motherhood feels like: “I’m tired.” “Just give me comfort.” “Just give me escape.” But eternal things matter more than temporary relief. Where might we be trading: Patience for yelling? Connection for scrolling? Covenant priorities for convenience? This isn’t about guilt. It’s about awareness. Let God prevail means choosing eternal over immediate.
Section 3: Favoritism & Family Damage (Genesis 27) Isaac favored Esau. Rebekah favored Jacob. And the family fractured. Even covenant families are messy. Jacob deceives. Esau is furious. Jacob runs. But here’s the powerful part: God does not abandon Jacob. Your mistakes do not cancel God’s promises over your family. He works through imperfect people. He works through imperfect moms. He works through imperfect marriages.
Section 4: Jacob’s Ladder (Genesis 28) Jacob is alone. Afraid. Running. He lays his head on a rock — and heaven opens. A ladder from earth to heaven. Angels ascending and descending. The Lord standing above it. And God says: “I am with thee… I will not leave thee.” This is temple language. This is covenant language. Sometimes your kitchen table becomes your Bethel. Your minivan becomes holy ground. Your quiet prayer becomes your ladder to heaven. Covenants bring power. They bring perspective. They remind us who we are.
Section 5: Leah, Rachel & Real Family Pain (Genesis 29–30) This section is raw. Leah was not chosen. Rachel was barren. There was jealousy. Comparison. Heartbreak. And yet, we read: “God remembered Rachel.” God remembers. He remembers: The mom who feels unseen The wife who feels overlooked The woman waiting for prayers to be answered The one in a long season of comparison He remembers you. God works with imperfect families. Not perfect ones. Real ones.
Section 6: Twenty Years (Genesis 31) Jacob works for Laban for twenty years. Twenty years of: Labor Waiting Raising children Being treated unfairly Quiet faithfulness Sometimes motherhood feels

Episode 43: God Knew You Before You Were Born | Come, Follow Me Moms | Jeremiah 1–4; 6–7; 16–18; 20 Have you ever felt like God was asking you to do something you weren't qualified to do? Or wondered if your children are actually listening to anything you're teaching them? 😂 Mama, this week's Come, Follow Me lesson is for YOU! We're diving into the book of Jeremiah, a prophet who was called by God before he was even born. Jeremiah was asked to preach repentance to people who didn't want to listen. He faced rejection, discouragement, and opposition, but the Lord reminded him that he was never alone. And guess what? We can learn SO much from Jeremiah about motherhood! In this episode, we're talking about:
Episode 42: Beauty for Ashes — Letting Jesus Christ Transform Our Motherhood | Isaiah 58–66 Come, Follow Me Moms | October 12–18, 2026 “The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion” Mama, what are you living without right now? Maybe it's sleep, peace, friendship, hope, or simply the energy to make it through another day. Maybe you're carrying grief, disappointment, or a burden nobody else knows about. This week's Come, Follow Me study in Isaiah 58–66 is a beautiful reminder that Jesus Christ doesn't just help us get through life. He has the power to transform us. He can bring beauty from ashes, light into darkness, joy in our mourning, and hope for our future. In this episode, we're diving into Isaiah's powerful prophecies about the Savior, what it means to put on Christ every day, and how we can invite His transforming power into our homes and motherhood. Because, mama, you don't have to have it all together to come unto Jesus Christ. ❤️ 🌸 In This Episode, We'll Talk About:
Episode 41: He Hath Borne Our Griefs & Carried Our Sorrows | Isaiah 50–57 + General Conference This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah and talking about some of my favorite messages from General Conference! Isaiah teaches us something every overwhelmed, exhausted, worried mama needs to hear: You were never meant to carry everything alone. Isaiah prophesied of Jesus Christ as “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He didn't just come to save us from our sins—He came to bear our griefs and carry our sorrows. He understands the worry, loneliness, exhaustion, heartbreak, mom guilt, and seasons when life looks completely different than we thought it would. Pasted markdown Sometimes we pray for God to take the hard thing away, but instead He says, “I'm going to walk through it with you.” In this episode we talk about:
Fear Not: You Have Not Been Forgotten | Isaiah 40–49 + General Conference Prep This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah 40–49 and preparing our hearts and our homes for General Conference. And moms, if there is one message I hope you take away from these chapters, it’s this: God knows you. God has not forgotten you. God will strengthen you. God will lead you. And when what you’re carrying feels too heavy—He will carry you. Isaiah begins with the word comfort, and these chapters are filled with reminders for anyone who feels tired, overwhelmed, afraid, lost, or unsure of what comes next. We talk about:
Come, Follow Me Moms | September 21–27 Isaiah 13–14; 22; 24–30; 35 “A Marvellous Work and a Wonder” What if the things that feel broken in your life aren’t actually finished? This week in Isaiah, we see warnings about pride, worldliness, and turning away from God—but we also see an incredible message of hope, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Isaiah describes broken walls, barren ground, heavy burdens, wandering people, and things that seem beyond repair. But that isn’t where the story ends. He also describes the wilderness blooming, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, sorrow disappearing, and God’s people being restored. In this episode, we’re talking about what all of that means for us as moms. We’ll dive into:
