The purpose of Chronicles is to bring hope in the future Messiah who will come from David’s line. While the history of God’s people is marred, it does not lead to despair. Chronicles helps us to look to the King of Kings, trust in His word, seek Him with all our heart, and let Him fight our battles.  

I’m sure you’ve heard the old expression, “What goes up must come down.” But in /God’s economy that expression doesn’t necessarily apply, because whenever God comes down things go up and the keep going up. As we come to chapter 3 of Exodus, life couldn’t have been lower for Moses and Israel. Moses was in the wilderness of Midian thinking he was living out his last few years as a lowly shepherd. The Israelites were laboring hard as lowly slaves […]

As we head today into our study of Exodus, we will see three people taking a stand for the Lord: Moses, Jochebed, and Miriam. The days in which we live are every bit as dark as those of the Israelites shortly before the Exodus, and the lines are being drawn clearly in the sand between good and evil. That means we are going to be faced with the choice of cowering to evil or taking a stand for Christ. Hopefully, […]

In this last chapter of Genesis which we will be looking at today, Joseph’s brothers are going to send messengers to him to beg him not to kill them– because they believe that’s exactly what he intends to do. Why do they believe that? Because they don’t trust him, and the reason they don’t trust him is that they don’t love him. As we examine Joseph’s brother’s folly today, we can learn why trust and love must work together in […]

As we come to Genesis 49, the clock is about to strike midnight in Jacob’s life. But before he dies he wants to bless all his sons with a prophecy about their lives and that of their future descendants. Right in the middle of giving his blessings, Jacob pauses and says, “I have waited for your salvation, oh LORD!” We will take a look the significance of that statement in our study today. George

In today’s study in Genesis 48, Jacob is going to pass down the very best of his inheritance to his son Joseph and his grandsons Ephraim and Manasseh. The best part of his inheritance was his relationship with the Lord. Jacob wanted them to know the Lord as he knew the Lord: As his companion in life; as the shepherd of his soul; and as the angel who redeemed him from all evil. Not only was that inheritance passed down […]
