  The

  with
• 0:09
  God

  in

  all
• 0:09
  of
• 0:09
  his

  glory,
• 0:10
  creating
• 0:11
  the

  earth,
• 0:11
  and
• 0:12
  a
• 0:12
  Heavenly
• 0:12
  Father
• 0:12
  blessing
• 0:13
  his
• 0:13
  creation
• 0:13
  in

  the

  garden,
• 0:14
  and
• 0:14
  it's
• 0:14
  concluding
• 0:15
  with
• 0:15
  a
• 0:15
  beautiful
• 0:16
  picture
• 0:16
  of
• 0:16
  forgiveness.
• 0:17
  And
• 0:17
  an
• 0:17
  earthly
• 0:17
  father
• 0:18
  blessing
• 0:18
  his
• 0:18
  children.
• 0:19
  In
• 0:19
  yesterday's
• 0:19
  episode,
• 0:20
  I
• 0:20
  mentioned
• 0:21
  that
• 0:21
  the
• 0:21
  Lord
• 0:21
  has
• 0:21
  probably
• 0:22
  used
• 0:22
  a
• 0:22
  lack
• 0:23
  of
• 0:23
  blessing
• 0:23
  in
• 0:24
  some
• 0:24
  area
• 0:24
  in
• 0:24
  your
• 0:24
  life,
• 0:25
  or
• 0:25
  hurt
• 0:25
  to
• 0:26
  make
• 0:26
  you
• 0:26
  into
• 0:26
  the
• 0:26
  person
• 0:26
  you
• 0:27
  are
• 0:27
  today.
• 0:27
  I
• 0:27
  think
• 0:28
  we
• 0:28
  see
• 0:28
  that
• 0:28
  displayed
• 0:28
  in
• 0:29
  Jacob's
• 0:29
  life.
• 0:29
  He
• 0:29
  had
• 0:30
  a
• 0:30
  father
• 0:30
  with
• 0:30
  twin
• 0:31
  sons
• 0:31
  and
• 0:31
  he
• 0:31
  gave
• 0:32
  his
• 0:32
  entire
• 0:33
  blessing
• 0:33
  to
• 0:33
  one
• 0:33
  of
• 0:34
  them
• 0:34
  so
• 0:34
  that
• 0:34
  he
• 0:34
  really
• 0:35
  didn't
• 0:35
  have
• 0:35
  much
• 0:35
  to
• 0:35
  give
• 0:35
  to
• 0:35
  the
• 0:36
  second.
• 0:36
  Now
• 0:36
  Jacob
• 0:37
  is
• 0:37
  on
• 0:37
  his
• 0:37
  deathbed
• 0:38
  with
• 0:38
  12
• 0:39
  sons,
• 0:39
  and
• 0:39
  he's
• 0:39
  going
• 0:40
  to
• 0:40
  bless
• 0:40
  every
• 0:40
  one
• 0:41
  of
• 0:41
  them
• 0:41
  It
• 0:41
  seems
• 0:42
  he
• 0:42
  learned
• 0:42
  and
• 0:42
  grew
• 0:43
  from
• 0:43
  his
• 0:43
  father's
• 0:43
  example.
• 0:44
  We
• 0:44
  also
• 0:44
  talked
• 0:45
  about
• 0:45
  how
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  story
• 0:45
  of
• 0:45
  Joseph
• 0:46
  shows
• 0:46
  us
• 0:47
  that
• 0:47
  difficult
• 0:47
  circumstances
• 0:48
  do
• 0:48
  not
• 0:48
  mean
• 0:49
  that
• 0:49
  God
• 0:49
  has
• 0:49
  abandoned
• 0:49
  us.
• 0:50
  God's
• 0:50
  sovereignty
• 0:51
  sent
• 0:51
  Joseph
• 0:51
  ahead
• 0:52
  so
• 0:52
  that
• 0:52
  he
• 0:52
  could
• 0:52
  preserve
• 0:53
  his
• 0:53
  family
• 0:53
  in
• 0:53
  this
• 0:53
  famine.
• 0:54
  There
• 0:54
  are
• 0:54
  times
• 0:55
  I
• 0:55
  read
• 0:55
  it
• 0:55
  and
• 0:55
  think,
• 0:56
  but
• 0:56
  God,
• 0:56
  you
• 0:56
  could
• 0:57
  have
• 0:57
  stopped
• 0:57
  the
• 0:57
  famine.
• 0:58
  You
• 0:58
  could
• 0:58
  have
• 0:58
  blessed
• 0:58
  your
• 0:59
  people
• 0:59
  in
• 0:59
  Abraham's
• 1:00
  line.
• 1:00
  In
• 1:00
  the
• 1:00
  promised
• 1:00
  Land.
• 1:01
  But
• 1:01
  our
• 1:01
  God
• 1:01
  isn't
• 1:02
  a
• 1:02
  God
• 1:02
  that
• 1:02
  shies
• 1:02
  away
• 1:02
  from
• 1:03
  difficulty.
• 1:03
  He
• 1:03
  often
• 1:04
  puts
• 1:04
  his
• 1:04
  children
• 1:04
  right
• 1:05
  in
• 1:05
  the
• 1:05
  middle
• 1:05
  of
• 1:05
  it
• 1:06
  so
• 1:06
  that
• 1:06
  his
• 1:06
  glory
• 1:06
  and
• 1:07
  majesty
• 1:07
  will
• 1:07
  be
• 1:07
  on
• 1:07
  full
• 1:07
  display.
• 1:08
  Let's
• 1:08
  look
• 1:09
  at
• 1:09
  how
• 1:09
  Joseph
• 1:09
  and
• 1:09
  Jacob
• 1:10
  end
• 1:10
  their
• 1:10
  lives
• 1:11
  and
• 1:11
  what
• 1:11
  they
• 1:11
  have
• 1:11
  to
• 1:12
  say
• 1:12
  about
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  Lord
• 1:12
  and
• 1:13
  what
• 1:13
  he's
• 1:13
  done
• 1:13
  as
• 1:14
  he
• 1:14
  walked
• 1:14
  with
• 1:14
  them.
• 1:15
  Chapter
• 1:15
  46
• 1:15
  begins
• 1:16
  he
• 1:16
  offered
• 1:17
  sacrifices
• 1:17
  to
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  God
• 1:18
  of
• 1:18
  his
• 1:18
  father
• 1:18
  Isaac,
• 1:19
  and
• 1:19
  God
• 1:19
  spoke
• 1:20
  to
• 1:20
  Israel
• 1:20
  in
• 1:20
  Visions
• 1:21
  of
• 1:21
  the
• 1:21
  Night
• 1:21
  and
• 1:22
  said,
• 1:22
  Jacob,
• 1:23
  Jacob.
• 1:23
  and
• 1:24
  he
• 1:24
  said,
• 1:24
  here
• 1:24
  I
• 1:24
  am.
• 1:25
  Then
• 1:25
  he
• 1:25
  said,
• 1:26
  I
• 1:26
  am
• 1:26
  God,
• 1:27
  the
• 1:27
  God
• 1:27
  of
• 1:27
  your
• 1:27
  father.
• 1:28
  Do
• 1:28
  not
• 1:28
  be
• 1:28
  afraid
• 1:29
  to
• 1:29
  go
• 1:29
  down
• 1:29
  to
• 1:29
  Egypt
• 1:30
  for
• 1:30
  there
• 1:30
  I
• 1:30
  will
• 1:31
  make
• 1:31
  you
• 1:31
  into
• 1:31
  a
• 1:31
  great
• 1:31
  nation.
• 1:32
  I
• 1:32
  myself
• 1:33
  will
• 1:33
  go
• 1:33
  down
• 1:33
  with
• 1:34
  you
• 1:34
  to
• 1:34
  Egypt
• 1:35
  and
• 1:35
  I
• 1:35
  will
• 1:35
  also
• 1:35
  bring
• 1:36
  you
• 1:36
  up
• 1:36
  again
• 1:36
  and
• 1:37
  Joseph's
• 1:37
  hand
• 1:37
  shall
• 1:38
  close
• 1:38
  your
• 1:38
  eyes.
• 1:39
  46
• 1:40
  gives
• 1:40
  us
• 1:40
  a
• 1:40
  genealogy
• 1:41
  so
• 1:41
  that
• 1:41
  we
• 1:41
  know
• 1:42
  how
• 1:42
  many
• 1:42
  people
• 1:43
  of
• 1:43
  Abraham's
• 1:43
  line
• 1:43
  enter
• 1:44
  Egypt.
• 1:44
  Scripture
• 1:45
  tells
• 1:45
  us
• 1:45
  here
• 1:46
  in
• 1:46
  Genesis
• 1:46
  that
• 1:46
  at
• 1:46
  70,
• 1:47
  in
• 1:47
  Acts
• 1:47
  seven,
• 1:48
  Stephen's
• 1:48
  speech
• 1:49
  will
• 1:49
  say
• 1:49
  75,
• 1:50
  but
• 1:50
  we
• 1:50
  believe
• 1:50
  that's
• 1:50
  because
• 1:51
  he's
• 1:51
  including
• 1:51
  Joseph's
• 1:52
  family
• 1:52
  as
• 1:52
  well.
• 1:53
  N
• 1:53
  47,
• 1:54
  Joseph
• 1:54
  goes
• 1:54
  in
• 1:54
  and
• 1:54
  tells
• 1:55
  Pharaoh,
• 1:55
  okay,
• 1:55
  they're
• 1:56
  here.
• 1:56
  We
• 1:56
  also
• 1:57
  learn
• 1:57
  that
• 1:57
  they're
• 1:57
  gonna
• 1:58
  maintain
• 1:58
  their
• 1:59
  occupation
• 1:59
  as
• 2:00
  Shepherds.
• 2:00
  Shepherds
• 2:01
  are
• 2:01
  an
• 2:01
  abomination
• 2:02
  to
• 2:02
  Egyptians.
• 2:03
  It
• 2:03
  says,
• 2:03
  but
• 2:03
  really,
• 2:04
  God
• 2:04
  uses
• 2:05
  this
• 2:05
  to
• 2:05
  keep
• 2:06
  them
• 2:06
  separate,
• 2:06
  that
• 2:06
  they
• 2:07
  can
• 2:07
  maintain
• 2:07
  their
• 2:07
  culture
• 2:08
  even
• 2:08
  while.
• 2:09
  in
• 2:09
  this
• 2:09
  pagan
• 2:09
  land,
• 2:10
  Pharaoh
• 2:10
  tells
• 2:11
  them
• 2:11
  that
• 2:11
  they
• 2:11
  get
• 2:11
  to
• 2:11
  settle
• 2:12
  in
• 2:12
  the
• 2:12
  land
• 2:12
  of
• 2:12
  Goshen,
• 2:12
  which
• 2:13
  we
• 2:13
  believe
• 2:13
  would
• 2:13
  be
• 2:13
  in
• 2:13
  the
• 2:14
  fertile
• 2:14
  Nile
• 2:14
  River
• 2:15
  Valley,
• 2:15
  even
• 2:16
  in
• 2:16
  a
• 2:16
  famine,
• 2:17
  even
• 2:17
  when
• 2:17
  they're
• 2:17
  taken
• 2:17
  about
• 2:18
  200
• 2:18
  miles
• 2:18
  from
• 2:18
  the
• 2:18
  Promised
• 2:19
  Land.
• 2:19
  And
• 2:19
  they're
• 2:19
  uprooted.
• 2:20
  God
• 2:20
  still
• 2:21
  settles
• 2:22
  them
• 2:22
  in
• 2:22
  the
• 2:22
  best
• 2:22
  of
• 2:22
  the
• 2:22
  land.
• 2:23
  I
• 2:23
  mentioned
• 2:23
  that
• 2:23
  Jacob
• 2:24
  maintains
• 2:24
  energy
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  bless
• 2:25
  others,
• 2:26
  and
• 2:26
  he
• 2:26
  even
• 2:26
  blesses
• 2:27
  Pharaoh.
• 2:27
  48
• 2:28
  15
• 2:28
  begins
• 2:29
  and
• 2:29
  he
• 2:29
  plus
• 2:30
  Joseph
• 2:30
  and
• 2:30
  said.
• 2:31
  The
• 2:31
  God
• 2:31
  before
• 2:32
  whom
• 2:32
  my
• 2:32
  father's
• 2:33
  Abraham
• 2:33
  and
• 2:33
  Isaac
• 2:34
  walked
• 2:34
  the
• 2:34
  God
• 2:35
  who
• 2:35
  has
• 2:35
  been
• 2:35
  my
• 2:35
  shepherd.
• 2:36
  All
• 2:36
  my
• 2:36
  lifelong
• 2:37
  to
• 2:37
  this
• 2:37
  day,
• 2:38
  the
• 2:38
  angel
• 2:38
  who
• 2:39
  has
• 2:39
  redeemed
• 2:39
  me
• 2:40
  from
• 2:40
  all
• 2:40
  evil,
• 2:41
  bless
• 2:41
  the
• 2:41
  boys
• 2:42
  and
• 2:42
  in
• 2:42
  them,
• 2:42
  let
• 2:43
  my
• 2:43
  name
• 2:43
  be
• 2:43
  carried
• 2:44
  on
• 2:44
  and
• 2:44
  the
• 2:44
  name
• 2:44
  of
• 2:45
  my
• 2:45
  father's
• 2:45
  Abraham
• 2:46
  and
• 2:46
  Isaac,
• 2:46
  and
• 2:46
  let
• 2:47
  them
• 2:47
  grow
• 2:47
  into
• 2:47
  a
• 2:47
  multitude
• 2:48
  in
• 2:48
  the
• 2:48
  midst
• 2:49
  of
• 2:49
  the
• 2:49
  earth.
• 2:49
  We
• 2:49
  have
• 2:49
  more
• 2:50
  evidence
• 2:50
  that
• 2:50
  this
• 2:51
  God
• 2:51
  is
• 2:51
  personal
• 2:52
  to
• 2:52
  Jacob,
• 2:53
  In
• 2:53
  chapter
• 2:53
  49,
• 2:54
  Jacob
• 2:54
  calls
• 2:54
  his
• 2:55
  12
• 2:55
  sons
• 2:55
  and
• 2:56
  says,
• 2:56
  let
• 2:56
  me
• 2:56
  tell
• 2:56
  you
• 2:57
  what
• 2:57
  will
• 2:57
  happen
• 2:57
  to
• 2:57
  you
• 2:57
  in
• 2:57
  days
• 2:58
  to
• 2:58
  come.
• 2:58
  So,
• 2:58
  although
• 2:59
  we
• 2:59
  kind
• 2:59
  of
• 2:59
  see
• 2:59
  this
• 2:59
  as
• 3:00
  a
• 3:00
  blessing,
• 3:00
  not
• 3:01
  all
• 3:01
  of
• 3:01
  it
• 3:01
  is
• 3:01
  as
• 3:01
  favorable,
• 3:02
  especially
• 3:03
  for
• 3:03
  the
• 3:03
  first
• 3:03
  three
• 3:03
  sons.
• 3:04
  In
• 3:04
  a
• 3:04
  way,
• 3:05
  this
• 3:05
  clarity
• 3:06
  might
• 3:06
  have
• 3:06
  been
• 3:06
  helpful.
• 3:07
  It's
• 3:07
  not
• 3:07
  like
• 3:07
  Ruben
• 3:08
  Sine
• 3:08
  and
• 3:08
  Levi
• 3:08
  were
• 3:08
  wondering
• 3:09
  after
• 3:09
  their
• 3:10
  father
• 3:10
  died,
• 3:10
  Hey,
• 3:10
  how
• 3:11
  come
• 3:11
  we
• 3:11
  got
• 3:11
  cut
• 3:11
  out
• 3:11
  of
• 3:12
  the
• 3:12
  will?
• 3:12
  And
• 3:12
  Judah's
• 3:13
  blessing.
• 3:13
  He
• 3:13
  is
• 3:14
  promised
• 3:14
  preeminence
• 3:15
  in
• 3:15
  four
• 3:16
  areas
• 3:16
  over
• 3:17
  his
• 3:17
  brothers
• 3:17
  for
• 3:18
  royalty,
• 3:18
  for
• 3:18
  wealth,
• 3:19
  and
• 3:19
  that
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  messianic
• 3:20
  king
• 3:20
  would
• 3:20
  come
• 3:21
  through
• 3:21
  him.
• 3:21
  and
• 3:21
  perhaps
• 3:22
  there's
• 3:22
  even
• 3:22
  a
• 3:22
  reference
• 3:22
  to
• 3:22
  the
• 3:23
  millennial
• 3:23
  reign
• 3:24
  now,
• 3:24
  is
• 3:24
  this
• 3:24
  as
• 3:24
  clear
• 3:25
  to
• 3:25
  us
• 3:25
  just
• 3:25
  reading
• 3:26
  through,
• 3:26
  maybe
• 3:26
  not,
• 3:27
  but
• 3:27
  I
• 3:27
  assure
• 3:28
  you
• 3:28
  culturally,
• 3:29
  this
• 3:29
  was
• 3:29
  a
• 3:29
  pretty
• 3:29
  great
• 3:30
  blessing.
• 3:30
  And
• 3:30
  then
• 3:30
  we
• 3:30
  have
• 3:31
  to
• 3:31
  look
• 3:31
  at
• 3:31
  some
• 3:31
  more
• 3:32
  of
• 3:32
  Joseph's
• 3:32
  blessing
• 3:33
  here.
• 3:33
  Joseph
• 3:34
  is
• 3:34
  a
• 3:34
  fruitful
• 3:34
  bow.
• 3:35
  A
• 3:35
  fruitful
• 3:36
  bow
• 3:36
  by
• 3:36
  a
• 3:36
  spring.
• 3:37
  His
• 3:37
  branches
• 3:38
  run
• 3:38
  over
• 3:38
  the
• 3:38
  wall.
• 3:39
  The
• 3:39
  archers
• 3:39
  bitterly
• 3:40
  attacked
• 3:40
  him,
• 3:40
  shot
• 3:41
  at
• 3:41
  him,
• 3:41
  and
• 3:41
  harassed
• 3:42
  him
• 3:42
  severely.
• 3:43
  Yet
• 3:43
  his
• 3:43
  bow
• 3:43
  remained
• 3:44
  unmoved.
• 3:44
  His
• 3:45
  arms
• 3:45
  remained
• 3:45
  agile
• 3:46
  by
• 3:46
  the
• 3:46
  hands
• 3:47
  of
• 3:47
  the
• 3:47
  mighty
• 3:47
  one
• 3:48
  of
• 3:48
  Jacob.
• 3:49
  From
• 3:49
  there
• 3:49
  is
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  shepherd,
• 3:50
  the
• 3:50
  stone
• 3:50
  of
• 3:51
  Israel,
• 3:51
  by
• 3:51
  the
• 3:52
  God
• 3:52
  of
• 3:52
  your
• 3:52
  father,
• 3:52
  who
• 3:53
  will
• 3:53
  help
• 3:53
  you
• 3:53
  by
• 3:54
  the
• 3:54
  Almighty,
• 3:54
  who
• 3:55
  will
• 3:55
  bless
• 3:55
  you
• 3:55
  with
• 3:55
  blessings
• 3:56
  of
• 3:56
  heaven
• 3:56
  above
• 3:57
  blessings
• 3:58
  of
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  deep
• 3:58
  that
• 3:58
  CROs
• 3:59
  beneath
• 3:59
  blessings
• 4:00
  of
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  breasts
• 4:00
  and
• 4:00
  of
• 4:01
  the
• 4:01
  womb,
• 4:01
  the
• 4:01
  blessings
• 4:02
  of
• 4:02
  your
• 4:02
  father.
• 4:03
  Israel
• 4:03
  mentions
• 4:04
  four
• 4:04
  names
• 4:04
  of
• 4:05
  God
• 4:05
  here,
• 4:05
  the
• 4:05
  mighty
• 4:06
  one
• 4:06
  of
• 4:06
  Jacob
• 4:07
  the
• 4:07
  shepherd,
• 4:07
  the
• 4:07
  stone
• 4:08
  of
• 4:08
  Israel,
• 4:08
  the
• 4:08
  God
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  your
• 4:09
  father
• 4:09
  who
• 4:09
  will
• 4:10
  help
• 4:10
  you,
• 4:10
  and
• 4:11
  the
• 4:11
  Almighty
• 4:11
  who
• 4:11
  will
• 4:11
  bless
• 4:12
  you.
• 4:12
  it's
• 4:13
  beautiful
• 4:13
  to
• 4:13
  see
• 4:13
  this
• 4:14
  transformation
• 4:14
  of
• 4:15
  how
• 4:15
  Israel
• 4:15
  now
• 4:15
  sees
• 4:16
  the
• 4:16
  Lord
• 4:16
  and
• 4:16
  how
• 4:17
  personal
• 4:17
  he
• 4:17
  is.
• 4:17
  Israel's
• 4:18
  last
• 4:18
  request
• 4:19
  is
• 4:19
  that
• 4:19
  his
• 4:19
  family
• 4:19
  would
• 4:19
  take
• 4:20
  him
• 4:20
  to
• 4:20
  be
• 4:20
  buried
• 4:20
  by
• 4:21
  Abraham
• 4:21
  and
• 4:21
  Sarah
• 4:22
  and
• 4:22
  Isaac
• 4:22
  and
• 4:23
  Rebecca,
• 4:23
  and
• 4:23
  he
• 4:24
  says
• 4:24
  in
• 4:24
  there
• 4:24
  I
• 4:24
  buried
• 4:25
  Leah.
• 4:25
  It
• 4:25
  seems
• 4:26
  like
• 4:26
  Leah
• 4:26
  has
• 4:26
  received
• 4:27
  more
• 4:27
  honor
• 4:27
  from
• 4:27
  him.
• 4:28
  He's
• 4:28
  not
• 4:28
  buried
• 4:28
  with
• 4:28
  Rachel.
• 4:29
  He
• 4:29
  ends
• 4:29
  up
• 4:29
  by
• 4:30
  Leah.
• 4:30
  Perhaps
• 4:31
  she
• 4:31
  had
• 4:31
  increased
• 4:31
  in
• 4:31
  favor
• 4:32
  after
• 4:32
  Rachel's
• 4:33
  passing
• 4:33
  in
• 4:34
  Chapter
• 4:34
  50.
• 4:35
  They
• 4:35
  grieve
• 4:35
  him
• 4:35
  and
• 4:36
  Joseph
• 4:36
  commands.
• 4:36
  His
• 4:37
  servants,
• 4:37
  the
• 4:37
  physicians
• 4:38
  to
• 4:38
  embalm
• 4:38
  his
• 4:38
  father.
• 4:39
  These
• 4:39
  would've
• 4:39
  been
• 4:40
  medical,
• 4:40
  not
• 4:41
  mystical,
• 4:41
  embalmers,
• 4:42
  and
• 4:42
  we're
• 4:42
  told
• 4:43
  that
• 4:43
  the
• 4:43
  Egyptians
• 4:43
  wept
• 4:44
  for
• 4:44
  him
• 4:44
  for
• 4:44
  70
• 4:45
  days.
• 4:45
  We
• 4:46
  can
• 4:46
  learn
• 4:46
  so
• 4:46
  much
• 4:47
  about
• 4:47
  lament
• 4:48
  and
• 4:48
  taking
• 4:48
  the
• 4:48
  time
• 4:48
  to
• 4:49
  honor
• 4:49
  a
• 4:49
  life
• 4:49
  through
• 4:50
  the
• 4:50
  pages
• 4:50
  of
• 4:50
  scripture.
• 4:51
  His
• 4:51
  sons
• 4:51
  take
• 4:52
  him
• 4:52
  back.
• 4:52
  And
• 4:52
  do
• 4:53
  bury
• 4:53
  him
• 4:53
  at
• 4:53
  the
• 4:53
  field
• 4:54
  that
• 4:54
  Abraham
• 4:54
  had
• 4:55
  purchased.
• 4:55
  And
• 4:55
  I'd
• 4:55
  like
• 4:56
  to
• 4:56
  read
• 4:56
  a
• 4:56
  little
• 4:56
  bit
• 4:56
  more.
• 4:56
  That
• 4:57
  shows
• 4:57
  that
• 4:57
  the
• 4:57
  brothers
• 4:58
  were
• 4:58
  still
• 4:58
  dealing
• 4:59
  with
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  consequences
• 5:00
  of
• 5:00
  their
• 5:00
  sin.
• 5:01
  50
• 5:01
  15
• 5:02
  tells
• 5:02
  us
• 5:02
  when
• 5:02
  Joseph's
• 5:03
  brothers
• 5:03
  saw
• 5:03
  that
• 5:04
  their
• 5:04
  father
• 5:04
  was
• 5:04
  dead,
• 5:04
  they
• 5:05
  said
• 5:05
  it
• 5:05
  may
• 5:06
  be
• 5:06
  that
• 5:06
  Joseph
• 5:07
  will
• 5:07
  hate
• 5:07
  us
• 5:07
  and
• 5:07
  pay
• 5:07
  us
• 5:08
  back
• 5:08
  for
• 5:08
  all
• 5:08
  the
• 5:08
  evil
• 5:09
  that
• 5:09
  we
• 5:09
  did
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  him.
• 5:10
  So
• 5:10
  they
• 5:10
  sent
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  message
• 5:11
  to
• 5:11
  Joseph
• 5:11
  saying,
• 5:12
  your
• 5:12
  father
• 5:12
  gave
• 5:13
  this
• 5:13
  command
• 5:13
  before
• 5:14
  he
• 5:14
  died.
• 5:14
  Say
• 5:15
  to
• 5:15
  Joseph,
• 5:15
  please
• 5:16
  forgive
• 5:16
  the
• 5:16
  transgression
• 5:17
  of
• 5:17
  your
• 5:17
  brothers
• 5:18
  and
• 5:18
  their
• 5:18
  sin
• 5:18
  because
• 5:19
  they
• 5:19
  did
• 5:19
  evil
• 5:19
  to
• 5:20
  you.
• 5:20
  And
• 5:20
  now
• 5:21
  please
• 5:21
  forgive
• 5:21
  the
• 5:22
  transgression
• 5:22
  of
• 5:23
  the
• 5:23
  servants
• 5:23
  of
• 5:23
  the
• 5:23
  God
• 5:24
  of
• 5:24
  your
• 5:24
  father.
• 5:24
  Joseph
• 5:25
  wept
• 5:25
  when
• 5:25
  they
• 5:26
  spoke
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  him.
• 5:26
  His
• 5:27
  brothers
• 5:27
  also
• 5:27
  came
• 5:28
  and
• 5:28
  fell
• 5:28
  down
• 5:28
  before
• 5:29
  him
• 5:29
  and
• 5:29
  said,
• 5:29
  Behold
• 5:30
  we
• 5:30
  are
• 5:30
  your
• 5:30
  servants.
• 5:31
  But
• 5:31
  Joseph
• 5:32
  said
• 5:32
  to
• 5:32
  them,
• 5:32
  do
• 5:33
  not
• 5:33
  fear
• 5:33
  for
• 5:34
  am
• 5:34
  I
• 5:34
  in
• 5:34
  the
• 5:35
  place
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  God?
• 5:35
  As
• 5:36
  for
• 5:36
  you,
• 5:36
  you
• 5:37
  meant
• 5:37
  evil
• 5:37
  against
• 5:38
  me,
• 5:38
  but
• 5:38
  God
• 5:39
  meant
• 5:39
  it
• 5:39
  for
• 5:39
  good.
• 5:40
  To
• 5:40
  bring
• 5:40
  it
• 5:40
  about
• 5:41
  that
• 5:41
  many
• 5:41
  people
• 5:42
  should
• 5:42
  be
• 5:42
  kept
• 5:42
  alive
• 5:43
  as
• 5:43
  they
• 5:43
  are
• 5:43
  today.
• 5:44
  So
• 5:44
  do
• 5:44
  not
• 5:45
  fear.
• 5:45
  I
• 5:45
  will
• 5:45
  provide
• 5:46
  for
• 5:46
  you
• 5:47
  and
• 5:47
  your
• 5:47
  little
• 5:47
  ones.
• 5:48
  Thus,
• 5:48
  he
• 5:48
  comforted
• 5:49
  them
• 5:49
  and
• 5:49
  spoke
• 5:49
  kindly
• 5:50
  to
• 5:50
  them
• 5:51
  and
• 5:51
  at
• 5:51
  110
• 5:52
  Joseph
• 5:52
  says
• 5:53
  to
• 5:53
  his
• 5:53
  brothers,
• 5:54
  I
• 5:54
  am
• 5:54
  about
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  die,
• 5:55
  but
• 5:55
  God
• 5:55
  will
• 5:55
  visit
• 5:55
  you
• 5:56
  and
• 5:56
  bring
• 5:56
  you
• 5:56
  up
• 5:57
  out
• 5:57
  of
• 5:57
  this
• 5:57
  land
• 5:58
  to
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  land
• 5:58
  he
• 5:58
  swore
• 5:59
  to
• 5:59
  you.
• 5:59
  God
• 5:59
  will
• 6:00
  surely
• 6:00
  visit
• 6:00
  you
• 6:01
  and
• 6:01
  you
• 6:01
  shall
• 6:01
  carry
• 6:01
  up
• 6:02
  my
• 6:02
  bones.
• 6:02
  From
• 6:02
  there,
• 6:03
  the
• 6:03
  key
• 6:03
  word
• 6:04
  is
• 6:04
  visit,
• 6:05
  and
• 6:05
  in
• 6:05
  the
• 6:05
  Hebrew
• 6:05
  it
• 6:05
  implies
• 6:06
  an
• 6:06
  active
• 6:07
  interest
• 6:07
  it's
• 6:07
  the
• 6:08
  strongest
• 6:08
  way
• 6:08
  to
• 6:08
  say
• 6:09
  that
• 6:09
  the
• 6:09
  action
• 6:09
  will
• 6:10
  occur.
• 6:10
  God
• 6:11
  will
• 6:11
  surely
• 6:11
  visit,
• 6:12
  take
• 6:12
  care
• 6:12
  of
• 6:12
  you
• 6:13
  and
• 6:13
  carry
• 6:13
  you
• 6:13
  up.
• 6:14
  Although
• 6:14
  I've
• 6:14
  mentioned
• 6:15
  Hebrews
• 6:15
  11
• 6:16
  multiple
• 6:16
  times,
• 6:16
  I
• 6:17
  think
• 6:17
  it
• 6:17
  provides
• 6:17
  a
• 6:17
  really
• 6:18
  beautiful
• 6:18
  summary
• 6:19
  of
• 6:19
  how
• 6:19
  these
• 6:19
  patriarchs
• 6:20
  walked
• 6:20
  in
• 6:21
  faith.
• 6:21
  I
• 6:21
  will
• 6:21
  begin
• 6:22
  verse
• 6:22
  one
• 6:23
  now.
• 6:23
  Faith
• 6:23
  is
• 6:23
  the
• 6:24
  assurance
• 6:24
  of
• 6:24
  things
• 6:25
  hoped
• 6:25
  for
• 6:25
  the
• 6:25
  conviction
• 6:26
  of
• 6:26
  things
• 6:27
  not
• 6:27
  seen.
• 6:28
  For
• 6:28
  by
• 6:28
  it
• 6:28
  the
• 6:28
  people
• 6:29
  of
• 6:29
  old
• 6:29
  received
• 6:29
  their
• 6:30
  commendation.
• 6:31
  By
• 6:31
  faith,
• 6:31
  we
• 6:31
  understand
• 6:32
  that
• 6:32
  the
• 6:32
  universe
• 6:33
  was
• 6:33
  created
• 6:33
  by
• 6:33
  the
• 6:34
  word
• 6:34
  of
• 6:34
  God,
• 6:35
  so
• 6:35
  that
• 6:35
  what
• 6:35
  is
• 6:35
  seen
• 6:36
  was
• 6:36
  not
• 6:36
  made
• 6:36
  out
• 6:37
  of
• 6:37
  things
• 6:37
  that
• 6:37
  are
• 6:37
  visible.
• 6:38
  By
• 6:38
  faith,
• 6:39
  Abel
• 6:39
  offered
• 6:39
  to
• 6:39
  God
• 6:40
  a
• 6:40
  more
• 6:40
  acceptable
• 6:41
  sacrifice
• 6:41
  than
• 6:41
  Cain,
• 6:42
  through
• 6:42
  which
• 6:42
  he
• 6:42
  was
• 6:43
  commended
• 6:43
  as
• 6:43
  righteous.
• 6:44
  God
• 6:44
  commending
• 6:44
  him
• 6:45
  by
• 6:45
  accepting
• 6:45
  his
• 6:45
  gifts
• 6:46
  and
• 6:46
  through
• 6:47
  his
• 6:47
  faith,
• 6:47
  though
• 6:48
  he
• 6:48
  died,
• 6:48
  he
• 6:48
  still
• 6:49
  speaks
• 6:50
  by
• 6:50
  faith.
• 6:50
  Enoch
• 6:51
  was
• 6:51
  taken
• 6:51
  up
• 6:51
  so
• 6:52
  that
• 6:52
  he
• 6:52
  should
• 6:52
  not
• 6:52
  see
• 6:53
  death
• 6:53
  and
• 6:53
  he
• 6:53
  was
• 6:54
  not
• 6:54
  found.
• 6:54
  Because
• 6:55
  God
• 6:55
  had
• 6:55
  taken
• 6:55
  him
• 6:56
  now
• 6:56
  before
• 6:56
  he
• 6:56
  was
• 6:57
  taken,
• 6:57
  he
• 6:57
  was
• 6:57
  commended
• 6:58
  as
• 6:58
  having
• 6:58
  pleased
• 6:59
  God
• 7:00
  and
• 7:00
  without
• 7:00
  faith
• 7:01
  it
• 7:01
  is
• 7:01
  impossible
• 7:02
  to
• 7:02
  please
• 7:02
  him.
• 7:02
  For
• 7:03
  whoever
• 7:03
  would
• 7:03
  draw
• 7:03
  near
• 7:04
  to
• 7:04
  God
• 7:04
  must
• 7:04
  believe
• 7:05
  that
• 7:05
  he
• 7:05
  exists
• 7:06
  and
• 7:06
  that
• 7:06
  he
• 7:06
  rewards
• 7:07
  those
• 7:07
  who
• 7:07
  seek
• 7:08
  him
• 7:08
  by
• 7:08
  faith.

  concerning

  arc

  for

  the

  saving
• 7:16
  of

  his

  household.
• 7:16
  By
• 7:17
  this,
• 7:17
  he
• 7:17
  condemned
• 7:18
  the
• 7:18
  world
• 7:18
  and
• 7:18
  became
• 7:19
  an
• 7:19
  heir
• 7:19
  of
• 7:19
  the
• 7:20
  righteousness
• 7:20
  that

  comes

  by

  faith.
• 7:22
  By

  faith.
• 7:22
  Abraham
• 7:23
  obeyed
• 7:23
  when
• 7:23
  he
• 7:23
  was
• 7:23
  called
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  go
• 7:24
  out
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  a

  place
• 7:25
  that
• 7:25
  he
• 7:25
  was
• 7:26
  to
• 7:26
  receive
• 7:26
  as
• 7:26
  an
• 7:26
  inheritance,
• 7:27
  and
• 7:28
  he
• 7:28
  went
• 7:28
  out
• 7:28
  not
• 7:29
  knowing
• 7:29
  where
• 7:29
  he
• 7:29
  was
• 7:29
  going.
• 7:30
  By
• 7:30
  faith,
• 7:30
  he
• 7:31
  went
• 7:31
  to
• 7:31
  live
• 7:31
  in
• 7:31
  the
• 7:31
  land
• 7:32
  of
• 7:32
  promise,
• 7:32
  as
• 7:33
  in
• 7:33
  a
• 7:33
  foreign
• 7:33
  land,
• 7:34
  living
• 7:34
  in
• 7:34
  tents
• 7:34
  with

  Isaac
• 7:35
  and

  Jacob,

  heirs
• 7:36
  with
• 7:36
  him
• 7:37
  of
• 7:37
  the
• 7:37
  same
• 7:37
  promise.
• 7:38
  For,
• 7:38
  he
• 7:38
  was
• 7:38
  looking
• 7:39
  forward
• 7:39
  to
• 7:39
  the
• 7:39
  city
• 7:40
  that

  whose

  By

  faith,

  Sarah

  received

  power

  to

  conceive
• 7:46
  even
• 7:47
  when
• 7:47
  she
• 7:47
  was
• 7:47
  past
• 7:48
  the
• 7:48
  age
• 7:48
  since
• 7:49
  she
• 7:49
  considered
• 7:49
  him
• 7:49
  faithful,
• 7:50
  who
• 7:50
  had
• 7:50
  promised
• 7:51
  therefore
• 7:52
  from
• 7:52
  one
• 7:52
  man.
• 7:53
  And
• 7:53
  him
• 7:53
  as
• 7:54
  good
• 7:54
  as
• 7:54
  dead
• 7:54
  were
• 7:55
  born
• 7:55
  descendants,
• 7:56
  as
• 7:56
  many
• 7:56
  as

  the

  stars

  of

  heaven,

  and

  as

  many

  as

  the

  innumerable
• 7:59
  grains
• 8:00
  of

  sand
• 8:00
  by
• 8:00
  the

  seashore.
• 8:01
  These
• 8:01
  all
• 8:02
  died
• 8:02
  in
• 8:02
  faith.
• 8:02
  not
• 8:03
  having
• 8:03
  received
• 8:04
  the
• 8:04
  things
• 8:04
  promised,
• 8:05
  but
• 8:05
  having
• 8:05
  seen
• 8:06
  them
• 8:06
  and
• 8:06
  greeted
• 8:06
  them
• 8:07
  from
• 8:07
  afar
• 8:07
  and
• 8:08
  having
• 8:08
  acknowledged
• 8:09
  that
• 8:09
  they
• 8:09
  were
• 8:09
  strangers
• 8:10
  and
• 8:10
  exiles
• 8:10
  on
• 8:11
  the
• 8:11
  earth.
• 8:11
  For
• 8:11
  people
• 8:12
  who
• 8:12
  speak,
• 8:12
  thus
• 8:12
  make
• 8:13
  it
• 8:13
  clear
• 8:13
  that
• 8:14
  they
• 8:14
  are
• 8:14
  seeking
• 8:14
  a
• 8:14
  homeland.
• 8:15
  If
• 8:15
  they
• 8:15
  had
• 8:16
  been
• 8:16
  thinking
• 8:16
  of
• 8:16
  that
• 8:16
  land
• 8:17
  from
• 8:17
  which
• 8:17
  they
• 8:17
  had
• 8:17
  gone
• 8:18
  out,
• 8:18
  they
• 8:18
  would've
• 8:18
  had
• 8:18
  an
• 8:19
  opportunity
• 8:19
  to
• 8:19
  return.
• 8:20
  But
• 8:20
  as
• 8:20
  it
• 8:21
  is,
• 8:21
  they
• 8:21
  desire
• 8:22
  a
• 8:22
  better
• 8:22
  country.
• 8:23
  That
• 8:23
  is
• 8:23
  a
• 8:23
  heavenly
• 8:24
  one.
• 8:24
  Therefore,
• 8:25
  God
• 8:25
  is
• 8:25
  not
• 8:25
  ashamed
• 8:26
  to
• 8:26
  be
• 8:26
  called
• 8:27
  their
• 8:27
  God
• 8:27
  for
• 8:27
  he
• 8:28
  has
• 8:28
  prepared
• 8:28
  for
• 8:28
  them
• 8:29
  a
• 8:29
  city
• 8:29
  by
• 8:30
  faith.
• 8:30
  Abraham,
• 8:31
  when
• 8:31
  he
• 8:31
  was
• 8:31
  tested,
• 8:32
  offered
• 8:32
  up
• 8:32
  Isaac.
• 8:33
  And
• 8:33
  he
• 8:33
  who
• 8:33
  had
• 8:33
  received
• 8:34
  the
• 8:34
  promises
• 8:35
  was
• 8:35
  in
• 8:35
  the
• 8:36
  act
• 8:36
  of
• 8:36
  offering
• 8:37
  up
• 8:37
  his
• 8:37
  only
• 8:37
  son
• 8:38
  of
• 8:38
  whom
• 8:38
  it
• 8:38
  was
• 8:38
  said
• 8:39
  through.
• 8:39
  Isaac
• 8:40
  shall
• 8:40
  your
• 8:40
  offspring
• 8:41
  be
• 8:41
  named.
• 8:41
  He
• 8:42
  considered
• 8:42
  that
• 8:42
  God
• 8:43
  was
• 8:43
  able
• 8:43
  even
• 8:44
  to
• 8:44
  raise
• 8:44
  him
• 8:44
  from
• 8:44
  the
• 8:45
  dead,
• 8:45
  from
• 8:45
  which,
• 8:46
  figuratively
• 8:46
  speaking,
• 8:47
  he
• 8:47
  did
• 8:47
  receive
• 8:48
  him
• 8:48
  back
• 8:48
  by
• 8:49
  faith.
• 8:49
  Isaac
• 8:49
  invoked
• 8:50
  future
• 8:50
  blessings
• 8:51
  on
• 8:51
  Jacob
• 8:51
  and

  Issa.
• 8:52
  By

  Faith
• 8:52
  Jacob
• 8:53
  when

  dying.
• 8:53
  Blessed

  each

  of

  the

  of

  his

• 8:58
  By

  faith.
• 8:58
  Joseph
• 8:59
  at

  the
• 8:59
  end
• 8:59
  of

  his

  life,

  made

  of

  the

  of

  the

  and

  concerning

• 9:05
  Let's

  pray.
• 9:06
  Lord
• 9:06
  Jesus,
• 9:07
  may
• 9:07
  the
• 9:07
  promise
• 9:07
  of

  your

  presence
• 9:09
  be

  our

  greatest
• 9:09
  joy
• 9:10
  and

  aim.
• 9:11
  May
• 9:11
  we
• 9:11
  endure
• 9:12
  suffering
• 9:12
  well
• 9:12
  for
• 9:12
  your
• 9:13
  glory.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:13
  for
• 9:14
  our
• 9:14
  holiness,
• 9:15
  teach
• 9:15
  us
• 9:15
  not
• 9:15
  to
• 9:16
  shrink
• 9:16
  back
• 9:16
  from
• 9:16
  trials
• 9:17
  or
• 9:17
  even
• 9:17
  to
• 9:17
  deny
• 9:18
  their
• 9:18
  goodness
• 9:19
  when
• 9:19
  you
• 9:19
  have
• 9:19
  allowed
• 9:19
  them
• 9:19
  for
• 9:19
  good.
• 9:20
  May
• 9:20
  we
• 9:21
  be
• 9:21
  content
• 9:21
  in
• 9:21
  every
• 9:22
  circumstance,
• 9:23
  and
• 9:23
  may
• 9:23
  we
• 9:23
  forgive
• 9:23
  as
• 9:24
  you
• 9:24
  have
• 9:24
  forgiven.
• 9:25
  Give
• 9:25
  us
• 9:25
  faith
• 9:26
  that
• 9:26
  even
• 9:26
  when

  we

  don't

  see

  what

  we're

  hoping
• 9:28
  for
• 9:28
  on
• 9:28
  this

  that

• 9:31
  And

  in

  your

  may

  we

  speak
• 9:33
  blessing
• 9:33
  into

  our

  children.
• 9:34
  Give

  us
• 9:35
  clarity

  of

  then

  may
