I love it! Secondly, I was reminded of a song When I needed a Saviour whilst reading this post. Poured oil of gladness on the wounds of my struggling, And You poured oil of healing on the depths of my soul. Thank-you for all the sacrifices you make to facilitate this group, lead by example and witness Jesus to others.
I am praying for you. Love Georg xx. I love that quote by Elisabeth Elliot. She is such an example of pushing through the hard and allowing God to use it to make us more like Christ. Thank you for this study, Courtney. I love the book of Genesis; it is my favorite. There is so much to learn from the stories of God worked personally through the lives of His people.
Joseph especially touches my heart. I can see how hard seasons in my life where I was mistreated God used that season to draw me closer to Him, and to work some things out of me. I have been following your blog for a while now…four years? Thank you for being faithful and open about your life and leading us to the Word!
Just today pain from the past year came up again and I have been struggling with the memories and hurt. Would I be willing to give it all to God Yes.
Could I. Thank you for speaking it up today! God intended it for good! What a timely message today and much needed. Thank you Courtney for showing how to be graceful when someone treats you unfairly.
Guess what? It was to save the lives of many people. And it is being done. But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God thought it out unto good, to bring to pass that which we see this day, to give life to many people. As for you, you planned evil against me, but God planned it for good, in order to do this—to keep many people alive—as it is today. As far as I am concerned, God turned into good what you meant for evil, for he brought me to this high position I have today so that I could save the lives of many people.
Do I act for God? But as for you, you intended to harm me, but God intended it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many lives. Even though you planned evil against me, Elohim planned good to come out of it. Even though you meant harm to me, God meant it for good, to achieve this present end, the survival of many people. As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to keep many people alive.
As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to preserve many people alive. You intended to do evil to me, but God decided to make it serve a good, to fulfill that which today has come true: to keep alive a numerous people. You meant to hurt me, but God turned your evil into good to save the lives of many people, which is being done. As for you, you meant to harm me, but God intended it for a good purpose, so he could preserve the lives of many people, as you can see this day.
You planned to harm me. But God planned it for good. He planned to do what is now being done. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not. Who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself. No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,. Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. And he left there and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and crowds gathered to him again. And again, as was his custom, he taught them. Then Joseph fell on his father's face and wept over him and kissed him.
And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel. Forty days were required for it, for that is how many are required for embalming. And the Egyptians wept for him seventy days.

Spiritual Truth. And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. It is good for me that I was afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes. His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers; and so they hated him and could not speak to him on friendly terms. When they saw him from a distance and before he came close to them, they plotted against him to put him to death.
Now do not be grieved or angry with yourselves, because you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
