    When we are in the pit do we remember what the Lord has spoken? God had spoken to Joseph and then he was thrown into a pit. Joseph stayed faithful to God through it all.

    Joseph Remembered What God Had Spoken Genesis 42:6-20 6 And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph’s brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth. 7 And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, ...read more

    True healing in our relationships begins when, in reliance upon God, we recognize our own sin with a remorse that leads to full repentance.

    Sometime ago, an ad appeared in a Kansas newspaper, which read: “We will oil your sewing machine and adjust the tension in your home for only $1. (Leadership, Fall 1986, p.46). Wouldn’t that be nice, getting a quick fix for the tension in our homes or in any of our relationships? As we all ...read more

    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.

    Many times, we get hurt and we wanted to take revenge. But God reminds us through the story of Joseph that we have been placed by God in that position of authority for a greater purpose and that we must always manifest a humble heart.

    THE TEST OF POWER AND AUTHORITY Last week, we talked about the promotion of Joseph to the second highest in command of Egypt. He had been lifted up from the dark dungeon of despair to the palace of great responsibility, authority and power. It was a long process of waiting patiently and ...read more

    When an opportunity for revenge arrived on Joseph's doorstep, we see in him a level of faith and confidence in the sovereignty of God that can inspire us all to greater faith in God.

    We have been studying the life of an Old Testament character by the name of Joseph. Joseph’s story is filled with such emotion. He encountered all kinds of turmoil. And yet, Joseph navigated every situation with absolute faith in God. Joseph’s story reminds us that… Sometimes God may seem ...read more
