Today’s Feast
We
Were Still Sinners
Please
join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about
fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years.
“21
He who follows righteousness and mercy Finds life, righteousness
and honor."
Proverbs
21:21
New
King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Genesis
Chapter
44;
“Joseph's
policy to stay his brethren, and try their affection for Benjamin.
(1-17)
Judah's
supplication to Joseph. (18-34)
“
-
Matthew
Henry Concise
As
we continue
our Feast in
Genesis
44,
in
this scripture we see Joseph first a slave to the Pharaoh. Now in
charge of all the Pharaoh has, dealing with the brothers that sold
him into slavery. He talked to his brothers through an interpreter
so their was no reason for his brothers to recognize him. Joseph
was falsely represented to his brothers. He accused his youngest
brother of returning his kindness with thievery. In fact he set
him up ; ”1
And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, "Fill the
men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put each
man's money in the mouth of his sack. 2 Also put my cup, the
silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his
grain money." So he did according to the word that Joseph had
spoken.”
Genesis
44:1-2
NKJV.
So we see Joseph gave into the flesh and sinned against his father
and we were still sinners God. It doesn’t seem possible after
the love and grace of our God were so richly blessed on his life.
God understood what was happening; “21
And the Lord smelled a soothing aroma. Then the Lord said in His
heart, "I will never again curse the ground for man's sake,
although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth;
nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.”
Genesis
8:21
NKJV.
Remember God sent Jesus to die for us while we were still sinners.
“he
took him up in his arms and blessed God and said, “Lord, now you
are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word;
for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the
presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and for glory to your people Israel.”
Luke
2:28-32
NKJV.
It
really is not about religion”, it is about a relationship. Our
salvation depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus
sacrificed his life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent and
accept Jesus. He will come to get every Saint; “…But
concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.”
Matthew
24:36. We are building our relationship with Jesus right now, do
not wait while you try to change anything;

Rejected, Restorer
Today’s Feast
Rejected, Restorer
Please
join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about
fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years.
“4
For the word of the Lord is right, And all His work is done in
truth. 5 He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of
the goodness of the Lord."
Psalm
33:4-5
New
King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Genesis
Chapter
43;
“Jacob
is persuaded to send Benjamin into Egypt.(1-14)
Joseph's
reception of his brethren, their fears. (15-25)
Joseph
makes a feast for his brethren. (26-34)
“
- Matthew
Henry Concise
As
we continue our Feast in Genesis
43,
In
this Scripture we see Joseph (see
Genesis
43:16)
dealing
with his brothers. I couldn’t help
but thinking that because of the
love Joseph felt for
Benjamin; (see
Genesis
43:30)
that Joseph was glad that God gave Jacob another son to bless him
in his old age.
Joseph
loved all his brothers but he had a special place in his heart for
Benjamin; “33
And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright
and the youngest according to his youth; and the men looked in
astonishment at one another. 34 Then he took servings to them from
before him, but Benjamin's serving was five times as much as any
of theirs. So they drank and were merry with him.”
Genesis
43:33-34
NKJV The
one the brother’s rejected saved them all! There was another
person
rejected
by all whom
he
loves; “42
Jesus said to them, "Have
you never read in the Scriptures: 'The stone which the builders
rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. This was the Lord's
doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'?”
Matthew
21:42
NKJV.
This
same Jesus that men rejected and many still do (see
John
14:6)
is the only one who can save and restore us to God our heavenly
Father!
It
really is not about religion”, it is about a relationship. Our
salvation depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus
sacrificed his life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent and
accept Jesus. He will come to get every Saint; “…But
concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.”
Matthew
