Genesis 45: All in God’s Plan

Last updated on: March 2, 2012 at 4:09 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.” -Genesis 45:8 Joseph realized God was involved in his life, even the difficult parts. From being sold into slavery by his own family to falsely accused by his master to prison, Joseph saw God’s hand at work even in the worst of times. God does the same today. Even in life’s most... Read more

29 As he looked about and saw his brother Benjamin, his own mother’s son, he asked, “Is this your youngest brother, the one you told me about?” And he said, “God be gracious to you, my son.” 30 Deeply moved at the sight of his brother, Joseph hurried out and looked for a place to weep. He went into his private room and wept there. -Genesis 43:29-30 Joseph’s brothers returned to Egypt, this time with Joseph’s younger brother Benjamin. At... Read more

Last updated on: February 28, 2012 at 12:08 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

Now Joseph was governor over the land. He was the one who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph’s brothers came and bowed themselves before him with their faces to the ground. 7 Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he treated them like strangers and spoke roughly to them. “Where do you come from?” he said. They said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.” 8 And Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did... Read more

15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.” 16 “I cannot do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.” -Genesis 41:15-16 Pharaoh’s troubling dream led Joseph’s overnight transformation. Yet the wonderful note is made of Joseph’s deep humility at this stage of his life. After several years of... Read more

27 When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb. 28 As she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it on his wrist and said, “This one came out first.” 29 But when he drew back his hand, his brother came out, and she said, “So this is how you have broken out!” And he was named Perez. 30 Then... Read more

“Meanwhile, the Midianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard.” -Genesis 37:36 God’s plans are definitely not like our plans.

6 Esau took his wives and sons and daughters and all the members of his household, as well as his livestock and all his other animals and all the goods he had acquired in Canaan, and moved to a land some distance from his brother Jacob. 7 Their possessions were too great for them to remain together; the land where they were staying could not support them both because of their livestock. 8 So Esau (that is, Edom) settled in... Read more
