    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

    Generational Conflict is not new. We learn from the Joseph story that Humility from the Old will encourage the young to accomplish great things, and Respect from the young will provide honor that is due to their seniors.

    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

    Life has a tendency to dash our dreams and imprison our hopes. We can face different types of traps: Metal bars? Mental bars? Joseph had a dream? Now what? The well? Slave market? Auction? Potiphar? Prison? Forgotten? Nothing could stop God's plan.

    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

    When Joseph finally met his brothers again, he was able to say that, what THEY had meant for evil, God had meant for good.

    GOD SENT ME HERE. Genesis 45:1-15. The Old Testament Joseph is very much a Type of Christ. Favoured by his father (cf.

    The inspiring theme "African American Labor," a reflection not only on historical events but also on the resilience and ingenuity of our people. Just like Joseph, our journey has spanned from bondage to blessing, shaped by faith, struggle, and an indomitable spirit.

    "Joseph said to his brothers, 'I am Joseph! Is my father still living?' But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence. Then Joseph said to his brothers, 'Come close to me. When they had done so, he said, "I am your brother Joseph, ...read more
