    Examining the life of Joseph, and the reasons God chose him to be born for greatness. For, like Joseph, we've each been born to carry out a great mission from God

    Do you believe God predestines people for greatness? As we go through our time this morning, I’d like for you to allow that question to simmer in your mind. Now, I don’t know about you, but when I look into the chronicles of history, I can see some folks that have definitely done ...read more

    Unfathomable Forgiveness, Irrevocable Invitation, Inconceivable Compassion This morning again I want to tie in all three readings with the lesson to see how each one portrays a characteristic of Jesus and our relationship to Him.

  • Forgiveness Is Not A Choice

    Forgiveness has eternal consequences. Perhaps that is why Jesus included it in his model prayer saying we are forgiven only when we forgive. Satan does not have to get us with every sin in the bible. All he needs is to get us with one.

    I want to start with something funny, so listen to this. One Sunday a Preacher’s message was about forgiveness. Hoping to have made an impact, towards the end of the sermon, he asked his congregation, “How many of you have been able to forgive those who offended ...read more

  • An Unexpected Tapestry

    Contributed by Donavon Hill on Oct 9, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,723 views

    From the story of Joseph, God used the very same threads the enemy had used to weave defeat into Joseph's life and wove what would become an unexpected tapestry. Look a little deeper into your own story and you'll see how God is doing the same for you.

    Please stand for the reading of the Word . . . Genesis 45 5 But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6 For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there ...read more

    This teaching looks at the life of Joseph and how circumstances did not prevent God from being with him and working through him.

    We’re going to look at Joseph, who was Jacob’s second youngest son. Remember how his father had given him the coat of many colors? It was a coat that set him apart from his brothers in terms of authority and rank in the family. Remember how his brothers were none too happy with him having that ...read more

  • Joseph: Reunited With His Family Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 13, 2022
     | 6,956 views

    Joseph was separated from his family at the age of 17 not because of war, but because of the wicked jealousy of his own brothers. In their jealousy they sold Joseph into slavery and presented his ornamented coat to their father. God used this for his purposes.

    A popular television feature is to find a situation where a family has been separated because of war or some tragedy. The show does research to find out where the missing family members are. Then they reunite the family on television. It certainly makes for a moving experience with tears and ...read more

    Most Christians want to experience overcoming power and triumph in every situation. How can we?

    I feel that most Christians want to experience “...overcoming power and triumph in each trying hour.” Victory over every circumstance. This principle is taught throughout the Bible. 1. Potter and the clay, Jeremiah 18:1-10 a. In the hands of the potter, verse 6. b. Made it again as seemed good to ...read more

    Joseph had to choose to forgive his brothers. He saw God's sovereignty in the betrayal, he saw the same nature was in him and he tested their hearts with his brother. He forgave and never brought up the subject again.

    All of us will go through the pit at some point. All of us will at some point go through hard times. We will go through the valley. But for every pit, for every valley, there IS a way out that leads to the very promise of God!

    Here are things to remember when you get in the pit. First, intolerance of your condition creates your future. Say that with me. Intolerance of your condition creates your future. The problem is some start looking for ways to get accustomed to the pit. You read books on how to adjust to darkness. ...read more
