Sunday: Facing the Past
Eventually, things moved in the right direction for Joseph, big time. He not only gets out of prison, but he is made prime minister of Egypt after interpreting Pharaoh’s dreams (Genesis 41:1-57). He is married and has two children of his own (Genesis 41:50-52). The storehouses of Egypt are full, and the predicted famine has begun. And then, one day, Joseph’s brothers turn up in Egypt.
Read the first encounter between Joseph and his brothers in Genesis 42:7-20. Why the elaborate plot? What was Joseph trying to do with this first meeting?

Joseph had the power and could have taken his revenge on his brothers without having to justify himself. But, rather than revenge, Joseph is concerned about the members of his family at home. He is worried about his father. Was he still alive, or had a dysfunctional family become a family without a patriarch? And what about his brother Benjamin? As his father’s delight and joy, Benjamin was now in the same position that Joseph had been. Had the brothers transferred their dangerous jealousy to Benjamin? Joseph is now in a position to look out for these vulnerable people in his family, and he does just that.
Practicing biblical principles in our relationships will not mean that we ever can or should accept abuse. Each one of us is precious in God’s sight. Jesus paid the ultimate price on the cross for each one of us.
Why does Jesus take abuse or neglect of others so personally? Read Matthew 25:41-46.
We have all been bought through Jesus’ blood, and legally we are all His. Anyone who is abusive is attacking Jesus’ property.
Sexual abuse and emotional or physical violence are never to be a part of family dynamics. This is not just private family business to be resolved internally. This will need outside help and intervention. If you or someone in your family is being abused, please get help from a trusted professional.
| What are some biblical principles that you need to apply to whatever difficult family relationships you are now experiencing? |
Amen!

Joseph Bates [What Can We Learn From Him About Putting God First?]
Do you know Joseph Bates, one of the founders of the Adventist faith? In this video, you’ll get acquainted with his life. Learn how putting God first helped him take the present truth to the world. Bates was a retired sea captain when he first heard William Miller preached about Christ’s second coming. He firmly believed it. As a man who would always put God first in everything, he gave his full support. He spent time, energy, and money. For instance, he sold his house to generate funds. However, things didn’t go as planned. Nevertheless, Bates determined to go on. Unfortunately, Christ did not return in 1844, as they had predicted. It shook Joseph and other Millerites’ faith more so that they had sacrificed their entire lives for this cause. They were even ridiculed to the point of being forced to rebuild their lives. In his private time, Bates reviewed the Scriptures. He found out that October 22, 1844, was the date Christ entered the heavenly sanctuary. It was to intercede with His Father on behalf of His faithful believers. One day, Bates didn’t have anything to eat. He pleaded with God, promising to be faithful no matter what. Surprisingly that day, he received an envelope containing enough money to sustain him. It came from someone God inspired to help. As Bates continued to study the Bible with his friends, he discovered the truth of the seventh-day Sabbath. He shared it with James and Ellen White, two among his fellow believers. Together, they founded the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which has grown to be a worldwide movement today. Indeed, Joseph Bates put God first even if people mocked him. His courage inspires us. Similarly, Jesus’ redeeming love at the cross compels us to put His kingdom first in our respective lives. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7IsXp28ZSg
