Falling into a nightmare of reality


This is for those that didn't make it last Wednesday night.

Will You Stand Firm?
In Genesis 39 Joseph the son of Jacob has just begun a journey into the unknown, all on his own. No parents, no friends. We remember that his brothers hated him mostly because of the love their father had for Joseph. They took they anger out on him by selling him to a band of slave traders.

Joseph finally wakes up from this bad dream of his brothers throwing him into a pit and then selling him (like he was one the many sheep that his father owned), to find himself in another bad dream. He woke in the pagan empire of Egypt.

Joseph was sold and bought again by the captain of the Pharaohs Guard. His name was Potiphar. In chapter 39 verse 2 its says - "And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was prosperous." God wants to bless our lives but we need to first be obedient to Him. Joseph as we will see was obedient to the heavenly Father.

Catch the continuation of the decisions that Joseph had to face in Egypt. Remember he was a teenager when he was first sold.
