ESAU CRIED FOR IT

Esau was ordained for greatness in generations . By reason of his position as the firstborn, his name was designed for eternity honour - a reference name for posterity. " The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Esau should have been the order of the day. 

God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers —the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob —has sent me to you.’ “This is my name forever, the name you shall call me from generation to generation. Exodus 3:15

 if he had made the right choice, taken the right decision and of course the right action to enter the prophecy for His glorious destiny, he would have been celebrated generation to generation.

He was supposed to be a part of the name of Yahweh forever " the God of Abraham, Isaac and probably Esau because the birthright blessings would had made him an eternal excellence but he was not because of a momentarily weakness, an unguarded moment of wrong priority, a time when the right value was not placed on Kingdom priority.

"Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished. He said to Jacob, “Quick, let me have some of that red stew! I’m famished!” (That is why he was also called Edom.) Jacob replied, “First sell me your birthright. ” “Look, I am about to die,” Esau said. “What good is the birthright to me?” But Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left. So Esau despised his birthright.......

"When Esau heard his father’s words, he burst out with a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless me—me too, my father!” But he said, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.” Esau said, “Isn’t he rightly named Jacob? This is the second time he has taken advantage of me: He took my birthright, and now he’s taken my blessing!” Then he asked, “Haven’t you reserved any blessing for me?” Isaac answered Esau, “I have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants, and I have sustained him with grace
