    True healing in our relationships begins when, in reliance upon God, we recognize our own sin with a remorse that leads to full repentance.

    Because the three G’s, grief, guilt, and grudge, will happen in our lives, are we clinging to the Big G, God, for answers?

    Are you grieving because you lost a loved one? Do you have guilt because you did something wrong? Do you have a grudge because someone hurt you?

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Purpose of Chapter: To show the leading of the Israelites into Egypt Title: The testing of character Text: Genesis 42 Main ...read more

     | 8,526 views

    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

    Why is the "man of God" such a blessing to a home?

    Joseph’s Dad was the guy named Jacob. There are 7 whole chapters in Genesis that talk about him.

     | 1,736 views

    Nobody in the family but Joseph knew what was going on, and how God had made the salvation of Jacob's family possible by the position God had lead him to possess. Joseph did not need faith at this point, for he had knowledge, but Jacob needed faith, and that is where he was weak.

    If the strong-willed child is the greatest challenge for parents, the strong-willed adult is the greatest challenge for God. The greatest obstacle to God's will being done on earth as it is in heaven is the strong stubborn self-will of man. All of the judgments of God through the Bible and ...read more
