    Contributed by Elmer Towns on Jul 24, 2023
     | 1,493 views

    Hard times and trials do not mean loss of God’s favor. God’s favor means His presence, His guidance, His work through you, and your inner strength.

    A. INTRODUCTION: WHAT GOD’S FAVOR IS NOT 1. Even in prison. “The Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy and gave him favor” (Genesis 39:21). 2. Joseph’s road down: a.

    It’s not just about me, my family, my space, my time or my life but God wants you to be like Joseph, whose branches ran over a wall.

    Over a wall Genesis 39:22 "Joseph is a fruitful bough, A fruitful bough by a spring; `Its` branches run over a wall.” I like the words that Joseph is a fruitful bough, now watch this, ‘the branches run over a wall.

    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? Maybe God spoke to you about doing a particular task or ministry and you’ve been faithful to ...read more

    With the blows that Joseph received you would think he was down for the count. No matter wherever Joseph found himself he would make the best of a bad situation. Joseph would always prove faithful with the little and prove trustworthy to be faithful with much.

    When we think of people who made it to the top we might forget their failures. Abraham Lincoln, who is considered by many as the greatest and most loved president failed his way forward.

    Bouncing Back (Part One)

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on May 23, 2021
     | 7,986 views

    The term bouncing back comes from having suffered through something but not letting it stop you from continuing on. There are many great bounce back stories in the bible. Today we'll look at the example of Joseph, son of Jacob.

    BOUNCING BACK The term bouncing back comes from having suffered through something but not letting it stop you from continuing on.

    The Injustices Of Life

    Life can throw many hard things at us. We may even be tempted to let our hope in God fade. We want to scream, “Where is the justice?” As we move along a little further in Joseph's life God would want us to be encouraged that he will always see his children through.

    Today I want to talk about the injustices of life. Have you walked through a season when you couldn't seem to catch a break? Did you ever wonder if good days would ever return? Maybe you lost a job around the same time a loved one died. Or you were going through a painful divorce just as ...read more

    A poem once declared "I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are, because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star." The story of Joseph tells of God's desire to make "could-be" of all His followers.

    Practical insights from Joseph being tempted by Potiphar's wife: Eliminate self-pity, tell the truth to yourself, think about what you will gain or lose, make a commitment to win. Ultimately, the key is (3X) "The Lord was with Joseph."

    Adversity Can Lead To Success

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Feb 18, 2016
     | 4,838 views

    Joseph understood that he was not the author of his success. He worked hard and obeyed the Lord. God did the rest. God’s presence with Joseph was linked to his commitment to God. Similarly, God’s presence with us is linked to our commitment to Him.

    Have you ever heard the saying that “hell has no fury like a woman scorned?” Well, we have a perfect example of this in the reading we heard from Genesis 39:1-23 a few minutes ago. Even though Joseph was a slave in Egypt, he showed great faith and righteousness, and even though he was ...read more
