    In the wrinkles of this tragedy, God is present and working. He’s working to bring about His good and see His plans realized. It may not be a pretty picture at this point. But that just goes to show how broken our world is - and how persistent God is.

    We live in a world where it is hard to find people who care. We live in a world where people are willing give money and even time to help people we don’t know. But at the same time, we often ignore people we do know who are in a spiritual pits.

    Usually, we are in pits of our own making. We find ourselves in a hole that we have fashioned for ourselves. What are the paths that lead to pits?

    INTRO: At the end of this chapter, Joseph is going to find himself in a pit. A literal, dark and lonely pit. At the same time, the brothers are going to find themselves in a pit as well.

    This sermon will consider how God uses vision to motivate and mobilise people into service for him.

    Why Me? Have you ever wondered why some people receive visions, or a call concerning what God wants them to do in life, while others may not.

     | 5,807 views

    Joseph found himself in a number of unjust situations because his brothers envied the privileges of his multicolored coat. We need the dreams of Jesus to overcome racism and prejudice.

    It’s Time To Get Up—Joseph Got Up Genesis 37:12-36 Matthew 18:21-35 How many of you have asked that question, “Lord how many times should I forgive? How many times should I put up with this?

    The Forgiveness Of Joseph

    Contributed by Kimberly Belken on Aug 30, 2020

     | 7,133 views

    Though Joseph's brothers intended to harm him, God intended to work through their actions for good. Ultimately this truth allowed Joseph to forgive his brothers. Forgiveness may sometimes be a decision we have to make but we can do so trusting that God will work good through it.
