This refers to Jacob's Wrestling with the angel and the angel putting Jacob's hip out of joint when he could not overcome him. (Genesis 32.24-31).

The spiritual meaning of this for us could be that when we wrestle with God in prayer for something, he gives us our desire but also humbles us in the process - Jacob got his blessing but went off limping on his thigh.
