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. This final scene reminds us that even our deepest wounds are not wasted when placed in God’s hands.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is a weekday podcast designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.
