    Series: Recovering Stolen Identity & Reclaiming Misplaced Destiny: Part 4b: God Can Use Detours To Get You To Your Destiny (Taking A Tour Through My Detour)

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 6,392 views

    Detours come during Development, Disasters, Accidents, Protocol, Apprehension (Sifting, Dragnet), etc. God rarely takes us to our destiny in straight lines - He normally has some development that requires detours. Abraham's detour was 25 years, Jacob's was about 20 years, etc. And yours?

    The history of Joseph from Canaan to Egypt.

    AN UNSPOKEN PROVIDENCE. Genesis 37:1-4, Genesis 37:12-28. What are we to make of Joseph? A tell-tale teenager (Genesis 37:2)? A favourite son (Genesis 37:3)? A dreamer (Genesis 37:19)? Or perhaps a boaster (cf. Genesis 37:5-10)? Or even a prophet (cf. Genesis 37:11)? What is the ...read more

    It's Time To Get Up--Joseph Got Up Part 1

    Contributed by Rick Gillespie- Mobley on Jun 19, 2020
     | 5,553 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? How many times is enough”. Those are some of the questions that are being asked in our nation today. But ...read more

    Joseph In The Pit Series

    Contributed by Claude Alexander on Aug 24, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 20,581 views

    Joseph’s story, as told in the Bible, is a beautiful illustration of how God’s purpose can be found in our pain.

    Joseph in the Pit Genesis 37:12-36 His brothers had gone to pasture their father’s flocks at Shechem. Israel said to Joseph, “Your brothers, you know, are pasturing the flocks at Shechem. Get ready. I’m sending you to them.” “I’m ready,” Joseph replied. Then Israel said to him, “Go and see how ...read more

    GREEN WITH ENVY, RIPE FOR TROUBLE—Genesis 37 A few years ago, a shampoo commercial on TV featured a beautiful woman, with long flowing hair, saying, “Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful.” Why would anyone hate a person who is beautiful, or charming, or successful, or popular, or rich, or smart, ...read more

    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Feb 9, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 16,937 views

    Joseph's salient slavery in Genesis 37:2-36 teaches us that God used the evil deeds of Joseph's brothers as part of his plan to save his people.

    Scripture Today, I am beginning a new series of sermons that I am calling "Jacob's Descendants," based on Genesis 37-50. Most of this section of Genesis, however, deals with Joseph, Jacob's son, and it begins with his sale into slavery. Let's read about Joseph's sale into slavery in Genesis ...read more

    If we concern ourselves with only ourselves, and we have no or little concern for how our words or actions impact others, we might get what we deserve.

    Joseph, Asking to Be Hated (Genesis 37:1-36) 1. When it comes to appreciating how good we have it, sometimes we do not realize it until we lose it. One college student wrote home: 2.

     | 13,757 views

    In some ways it is rather amazing that Joseph, the son of Jacob, ever amounted to anything. It was obvious to his 10 older half-brothers that Joseph was “Daddy’s favorite.”

     | 8,684 views

    Joseph was thrown into a pit on two separate occasions. However, as a result of his faithfulness during those circumstances, he was delivered from the pain and drudgery of his pit experiences to go on and live in a palace!

    He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps. - King David(1) Do you ever feel like you’re in a deep, dark pit with no way out?

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 15, 2022
     | 1,530 views

    Joseph took this obstacle (being sold into slavery by his brothers) and turned it into an opportunity. He had every reason to be bitter and resentful. His attitude made all the difference.

    YOU CANNOT KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN Text: Genesis 37:1-4, 12-28 "Ida Eisenhower, mother of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, was asked in an interview if she was proud of her son. She answered, "Yes, I am very proud. Which son?" (Robert H. Spain. How To Stay alive As Long ...read more

    The Forgiveness Of Joseph

    Contributed by Kimberly Belken on Aug 30, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,523 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.

    Like last week, we have skipped ahead a few generations in Genesis to get to today’s reading. So to quickly summarize, Abraham, whose deep desire for a son we heard about in last week’s reading, fathered a son by the name of Isaac. Isaac was the father of two children, Esau and Jacob. Jacob or ...read more
