The Providential Mercy of God | Dr. Stephen Conley

Text:  Genesis 43   God's Providential Mercy Moves His People to Complete Surrender (Gen. 43:1-14) Jacob is forced to reckon with his fears and put his trust in God. Judah demonstrates sacrificial love for his family. We must respond to God's mercy with a surrendered trust in His providence.   God's Providential Mercy Places His People Under Abundant Grace (Gen. 43:15-34) Joseph's brothers are invited to Joseph's home and receive undeserved generosity at his table. As recipients of God's mercy, we can forgive those who sin against us (Eph. 4:31-32). Jesus invites sinners to repent and be reconciled at His table of grace (Luke 15:11-24).   Main Idea: God prepares the way for reconciliation through His providential mercy.
