  • July 13 – Genesis 44:1-13

    Again, deceit is used. Joseph set up this

    difficult situation.

    Is it possible that Joseph was trying to

    discover where his brothers’ hearts were? Were they sorrowful for all the wrong
    they had dealt Joseph in his younger years?

    Once confronted with the wrongdoing, “They tore

    their clothes, and every mans loaded his donkey; and they returned to the
    city.”

    If we could be even half as sorrowful for our

    wrong doings today.  What a different
    world we would be living in if our sin truly drove us to such sorrow.  Is there an action in your past that still grieves
    your heart? Are you sorry for a past wrong that you committed? Take it to Jesus
    today and pray for courage to ask forgiveness from those you wronged.

    I just can’t help but think of how very unkind

    these brothers had been to Joseph. I also marvel at the continued kindness
    Joseph showed them. It also amazes me that God had given the ability to Joseph
    to know who these men were. He was able to breathe a sigh of relief about Jacob
    and laid eyes on Benjamin. He was so overcome by great emotion. This just
    warmed my heart as well. How is this possible?

    Only through God and His most excellent plan

    was Joseph’s sorrow made good. 

    Are you struggling with forgiving a wrongdoing

    that you have endured for years? Is this pain so great that at times it becomes
    unbearable? Take it to God and lay it at His feet.

    Rejoice in what He did for Joseph and know He

    loves you just as He loved Joseph. Ask God for the ability and desire to
    forgive. His plan is perfect.

    Why do you think the brothers were

    frightened when they each found their bundle of money in their sacks?

    Reuben was anxious to follow the

    orders given by Joseph.  What did he
    suggest as an offering to his father to allow Benjamin to go with him to
    Egypt? 

    What does this show you about

    Rueben? 

    How did Jacob respond to the

    request? 

    Sometimes the loss of a loved one,

    friend, home or job can leave us in such sorrow that we may feel frozen and
    unable to carry on. 

    God is not a stranger to loss and

    death.  He sent his only Son to die and
    bear our sins. 

    Pray today that if you are gripped

    by grief of someone or something that God will heal your heart and you can once
    again experience joy.

  • # 73 – Are you willing to Fall

    Have you ever come across a

    child who tries to pull up to the couch, coffee table or sometimes a dog, like
    my grandson likes to do, falls, and then just sits there and never tries
    again?  No, they want to walk bad enough
    to keep trying.  How bad do you want to
    honor God?  Is it a burning desire? Sometimes
    that desire is what keeps us moving forward and keep trying beyond quitting
    points.  Beyond the falls, scrapes, and
    bruises.

  • July 10 – Genesis 42:1-25

    It appears that Reuben has carried

    the guilt for Joseph’s misfortune and feels the time of reckoning has
    come.  What emotions do you think Reuben
    and the brothers are experiencing? 

    Do you think Joseph’s tears are an

    expression of grief, sorrow, joy or gladness? 

    Do you find it interesting that he

    seems to seek no revenge? 

    Even though he binds and keeps

    Simeon imprisoned near him, he returned the brothers’ money and gives them
    provisions until they return with the youngest brother.

    Reread the scriptures and think of

    how you’d feel if you were one of the brothers. 

    The unfolding of these scriptures

    continues to show us God’s love demonstrated through Joseph.

    How God blessed Joseph during times

    of difficulty and plenty!

    God has not changed.   He continues to show his faithfulness to us

    daily. 

    How has God blessed you in the past

    and how does He continue to bless you today? 

    During this dreadful heat wave in

    Texas, I’m reminded that simply finding a parking space close to my destination
    is not a coincidence, but a God Wink saying, “here you go!  I love you more than you can ever imagine!”    

    Find the small ways and the big ways

    that God shows His love to you every single day and thank Him for His
    lovingkindness.

  • July 8 – Genesis 41:1-36

    In verse 33, Joseph advised Pharaoh,

    “therefore let Pharaoh select a discerning and wise man and set him over the
    land of Egypt.”  When Joseph advised Pharaoh
    to find a discerning and wise man to oversee the land, do you think his
    suggestion had any motive or was he simply sharing what God had shared with
    him? 

    Although we don’t know what Joseph

    had in mind, we can certainly see what God has planned in the coming verses.  His plan not only protects Joseph, and Joseph’s
    family, but God uses Joseph to do these things and much more.

    Have you ever helped someone and

    expected something in return?  Let us go
    forth with no agendas as we show God’s love and kindness helping those, He
    places in front of us.

  • # 72 - Are You Too Comfortable?

    Growth isn’t easy, but it is necessary.  If we aren’t growing, we are dying.  Maybe not physically, but if we aren’t using the brain, muscles, talents, that God has given us, we lose those talents.

  • July 7 – Genesis 40:1-23

    Joseph’s interpretation of the chief

    cupbearer and chief baker’s dreams were accurate.  He requested that he be remembered to Pharaoh
    to see if he could be freed.  The chief
    cupbearer did not remember Joseph when he resumed his position.  What disappointment Joseph must have endured. 

    Have you ever shown kindness to a

    relative, friend, or acquaintance only to be forgotten? 

    How did you feel? 

    Sometimes doing what is right is not

    easy or remembered. 

    I often told my children when

    growing up, “It is always right to do what is right?”  God sees your obedience and you are not
    forgotten by Him.

  • July 6 – Genesis 39:19-23

    What a beautiful story of God’s

    faithfulness and steadfast love. 
    Although imprisoned, Joseph was once again found to show leadership and
    God blessed him as he was put in charge of all prisoners. 

    Think of a time when life seemed difficult

    or even desperate to you. 

    Did you call out to God? 

    Did you remain faithful to God? 

    Praise God for his faithfulness in

    the situation and/or resolve and continue to trust Him as trials and
    tribulations come your way.  

    Thank Him for the good that will

    come out of that trial.
