Episode 1225: What Was Meant for Harm, God Meant for Good

from Pursuing God with Gene Appel · host Gene Appel

 After 22 years of betrayal, slavery, prison, and waiting, Joseph finally sees how every painful chapter fits into a bigger plan. When his brothers, the very ones who sold him, stand before him in fear, Joseph doesn’t choose revenge. He chooses perspective. What they meant for harm, God meant for good. In one powerful moment of forgiveness, the upper story becomes clear: God had been positioning Joseph to save lives, preserve a family, and protect the future of His promise.
