Yes, he always called God his God. this made him feel closer and in a closer relationship with God.
God changed Jacob's name twice. First, he changed his name from Jacob to Israel, which means "He struggles with God" after Jacob wrestled with an angel. Later, God also referred to Jacob as "God Almighty" or "Abraham's God" in Genesis 35:11.
Jacob obeyed God after he wrestled with God, but he was always stubborn and went his own way but God set him straight. God helped Jacob by setting him straight and making his kids into a great nation. Read Genesis chapter 27,28 and 19 and maybe 30 to be safe.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

A:There is no mention in the Bible of Jacob wrestling with an angel. In Genesis chapter 32, Jacob wrestled all night with a stranger, until it was time for the sun to come up and it was time for the stranger to leave. The stranger, who was clearly a god, told Jacob that henceforth his name would no longer be Jacob, but instead be Israel, for he had wrestled with God. This ancient tradition was inserted into the story of Jacob and Esau shortly after a dispute between the brothers. Jacob was left alone and wrestled with a man all night until the break of day, when the man said he must leave (Genesis 32:24ff). Even though his leg was dislocated, Jacob refused to let his opponent go unless he blessed Jacob. That the 'man' was a god is amply demonstrated - Jacob asked for his blessing, he had the prerogative of changing Jacob's name, Jacob's new name was Israel (generally assumed to mean "wrestled with God') and Jacob called the place Peniel ('the face of God') because he had seen God face to face. If the man who wrestled with Jacob was a god, then Jacob was also a god in the very early tradition behind this passage, as demonstrated by the fact that he was such an even match for his opponent. And if the opponent was a god, he was also a sun god - daybreak signalled the end of the contest, he had to leave Jacob before the sun could rise, then the sun rose upon Jacob. This was the daily struggle in which the sun god defeats the moon god at dawn. This tells us that Jacob was indeed the moon god in early Hebrew times.
The same God as Abraham, Issac and Jacob.
Jacob is by far. My god, he is frickin sexy too.
Certainly Jacob is recorded as wrestling with a god, but there is no suggestion in the account that has come down to us that Jacob was in sin. Jacob was a very even match for his divine adversary, so the question is whether this god was the Supreme God or another god whom the early Hebrews worshipped. In this ancient tradition inserted into the life story of Jacob, he was left alone and wrestled with a man all night until the break of day, when the man said he must leave (Genesis 32:24ff). Even though his leg was dislocated, Jacob refused to let his opponent go unless he blessed Jacob. That the 'man' was a god is amply demonstrated - Jacob asked for his blessing, and he had the prerogative of changing Jacob's name. The new name he gave Jacob was Israel (generally assumed to mean "wrestled with God') and Jacob called the place Peniel ('the face of God') because he had seen God face to face. If the man who wrestled with Jacob was a god, then Jacob was also a god in the very early tradition behind this account, as demonstrated by the fact that he was such an even match for his opponent. And if the opponent was a god, he was also a sun god - daybreak signalled the end of the contest, he had to leave Jacob before the sun could rise, then the sun rose upon Jacob. There is evidence in the Bible itself that Jacob was originally a moon god, so this could have once been a story of the daily struggle in which the sun god defeats the moon god at dawn, but later evolved into a rather puzzling story of a human encounter with God.
God chose Jacob over Esau based on His divine will and purpose, not because of anything Jacob or Esau had done. This decision was part of God's larger plan to fulfill His promises to Abraham and Isaac, and to establish the lineage through which Jesus Christ would eventually be born.
In an ancient tradition inserted into the life story of Jacob, he was left alone and wrestled with a man all night until the break of day, Even though his leg was dislocated, Jacob refused to let his opponent go unless he blessed Jacob.

And if the opponent was a god, he was also a sun god - daybreak signalled the end of the contest, he had to leave Jacob before the sun could rise, then the sun rose upon Jacob. This was not an encounter with the God of modern Judaic-Christian belief, a God whom we can never look upon and who is so powerful that wrestling with and losing to a mortal ought to be inconceivable. It was nevertheless an encounter with a god. There is substantial evidence in the Bible itself that Jacob was originally a moon god before the story evolved into one of a human Patriarch, so I believe this was the daily struggle in which the sun god defeats the moon god at dawn.
Jacob, like his father and grandfather, was a superlative servant of God all the days of his life. His righteousness cannot be overestimated. See also the Related Link.More about Abraham Isaac and Jacob
