Rebekah and Jacob tricked Isaac into giving Jacob his blessing. Esau vowed revenge so Rebekah told Jacob to go to her brother Laban.
"Rebekah acted on that God dishonoring proverb that is not even in the Bible ‘The Lord helps those who help themselves,’ the truth is, the Lord helps those who have come to the end of themselves. If Rebekah really had confidence in the Divine promise she would have followed the path of duty, assured that in due time God would Himself bring His word to pass."
(A.W. Pink)
