    It Just Isn't Fair Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jul 5, 2010
     | 7,808 views

    From this episode in Joseph's life, we learn that God is always with us, God can help us grow through our suffering, and we learn that there is a better day coming.

    Introduction: A. Let’s begin with a statement that I think that all of us can agree on – “Life just isn’t fair!” 1. Can we all agree on that? 2. Do any of us need proof that life isn’t fair? 3. Look at this cartoon – “Life is unfair…for proof ...read more

    When you face an uncertain future, be certain that God is in control and that He cares for you; be certain that He will not forget the dream He has for you, nor will He forget you.

    There is a little church in Galena, Kansas, where it is customary for people celebrating birthdays to come to the front of the sanctuary. There, they give a special offering while the congregation sings “Happy Birthday.” On the other hand, if you’re a little shy, you can give ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 40 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 17, 2011
     | 5,141 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. What happened in Genesis 39? So Joseph winds up in jail for a crime that he did not commit. This seems to be cruel and ...read more

    GOD can connect you with anyone, anywhere within 24 hrs. HE knows where you live & HE is fully aware of every human being on this planet.

    We often think of heroes as those who run to the fight... but often heroes are those who engage in "organized retreats".

    Sermon 3 in the Joseph series as inspired by the writings of Chuck Swindoll

    Victim…that’s a word that we hear a lot these days isn’t it? If anyone ever experienced being a victim it would have had to have been Joseph. Let’s quickly recap his story thus far… First he receives unfair treatment from his brothers, then he gets thrown into a situation of being a slave, next ...read more

    The Baker, Butler, And The Peace Maker

    . There is hardly a more precise picture of the work of Christ on the cross, than is found here in this body of scripture. We can best glean the truths from these verses by focusing on the prisoners’ failure, their friend, and their future.

    The Baker, Butler and the Peace Maker Text: Gen. 40 Introduction: Joseph had been rejected by his brothers, sold into slavery in Egypt, falsely accused and sentence to the prison. It was while in prison that Joseph meets two prisoners of the Pharaoh. Joseph was assigned to them and during their ...read more

    Two men, two destinies Genesis 40 Two Cape Bretoners were lost in the woods and one of them said, “I heard that the best way to get someone’s attention is to shoot three times into the air. So, the other guy shot three times in the air and then they waited for about a ...read more

    God speaks to Christians through the voice of the Holy Spirit instead of dreams or visions.

    Last week we talked about dreams. We mentioned the dreams of Jacob, Abimelech, Joseph, the butler and the baker. All of these dreams involved some object or person. For example, Jacob dreamed of a ladder that reached from the earth up into heaven. He saw angels descending and ascending the ...read more

     | 5,268 views

    Sometimes we let our life-circumstances shift our focus away from God’s commands. Circumstances aren’t the prerequisite to letting God's Light shine. We can’t let others’ choices become an excuse for us, as-to-why we don’t let God’s light shine.

    If you have ever been abandoned and disappointed by other people, if you have ever felt forgotten by God, Genesis 40 has a word for you.

    (A few years ago, I called the IRS. I was really anxious to have them correct a mistake they’d made. They were saying I only had one daughter, when I knew perfectly well that I had two. In fact, the daughter they said didn’t exist was the one that was costing me the most money. All ...read more

    Waiting is difficult but it teaches us lessons that we cannot learn any other way. After he interpreted the dreams of Pharaoh's officials, Joseph thought that his time in prison would soon end. But God had more to teach him as he waits another two years

    Three weeks ago I suffered a ruptured biceps tendon. It did not hurt much at the time, but it required surgery and now a six week recovery. I have learned much during this time.
