Joseph Forgives His Brothers - Genesis 42-50 God Meant It Unto Good

from Come Follow Me Kids · host Come Follow Me Kids

March 16–22: “God Meant It unto Good”Genesis 42–50It had been about 22 years since Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery. Joseph had suffered many trials, including false accusations and imprisonment. When he finally saw his brothers again, Joseph was the governor of all Egypt, second only to the pharaoh. He could easily have taken revenge on his brothers, and considering what they had done to Joseph, that might seem understandable. And yet Joseph forgave them. Not only that, but he helped them see divine purpose in his suffering. “God meant it unto good” (Genesis 50:20), he told them, because it put him in a position to save “all his father’s household” (Genesis 47:12) from famine.A Come Follow Me Podcast For Kids Primary Podcast Welcome to Come Follow Me Kids!
