Family Bond Paper™

Aired January 24, 2011. Have you ever felt betrayed, or found guilty of some wrong doing? Yet, you were really innocent.  In Chp. 44 we read that Joseph was betrayed by his brothers. Now, to teach them a lesson he placed a silver cup in his youngest brother's sack.  A sack that he had requested for the family.  Benjamin had not been a part of the family secret.  The Egyptians and Hebrews lived separately.  If they had to gather for any reason the Egyptians would sit apart from the Hebrews.  Chp. 44 44:18 Notice Lord is not capitalized or upper cased.  You will only find an upper case "L" when making reference to God (Allah, Yahweh, or Jesus). Chp. 45 45:5 Do you suppose this is what Jesus says to faith believers? 45:21 Joseph is now the governor of Egypt and everything in it.  He respects his boss, and his position.  We must be like Joseph to understand our place or identity on the job.  This will allow us to build trust/loyalty...

Aired 12/31/2010. Introduction Esau and Jacob's generational lines: Jacob had a favorite son, and there were issues involving the Jealousy spirit. Notice that Chp. 37 is similar to the topics of Satan when he was in the Garden of Eden, and instructed Eve to eat of the apple. Chp. 36 36:15 the dream of Joseph Chp. 37 37:5  Many believers often recite Joseph's dream to express why people should keep their dream, or ambitions to one's self.  Maybe the lesson of Joseph's dream is to have enough self-confidence. 37:9  Joseph dreamed again, and told it again to his brothers.  Apparently, his brothers were wise enough to keep their emotions in tact and only murmured amongst themselves. Lastly, the Egyptian Pharoah was aquainted with witchcraft and magicians.  Their powers were almost equivalent to God's powers.  Yet, true believers can always identify God's powers.  Did you happen to notice the word Lord was mentioned in upper and lower case "L"...
