Manifestations of the Spirit: Workings of Miracles Part 2

July 6, 2024

We’re in the middle of a study of First Corinthians, and currently pointing out the manifestations of the Spirit that we find in chapter 12… like the workings of miracles.  Maybe you can look back on a time in your life when you experienced something unexplainable and supernatural?  Perhaps you didn’t know how you’d pay your rent, and God delivered big time.  We’ll see that God does the miraculous today, just as He did in the past.

We’re in Genesis chapter 40 today. Hardship and sorrow may not be our favorite teacher but it’s an effective one. God knows it and uses it in our lives!  Last time we began to hear of how God allowed Joseph to experience great sorrow.  It came in the form of being horribly mistreated, falsely accused and imprisoned. Yet God uses it to accomplish His purposes.  And I should add the Lord often does that in our lives.

We’ve got a great study from Genesis chapter 40 all set and ready to go, here today on Abounding Grace.  Joseph is in prison unjustly at this particular time in his life. But God was still with him, and developing him into the man he wanted him to be.  Let’s see together how God uses even the difficult experiences in life to shape and develop us too.

Temptation to sin… we all face it.  Maybe it’s a temptation to cheat on an exam at school, cheat on your spouse, or not report some of your income!  But there is a way to resist temptation successfully, and it’s modeled for us by Joseph.  That’s the focus of our time and attention today on Abounding Grace.  We’re in the middle of the story of Joseph and you’re about to hear the temptation that he faced. You’ll find it in Genesis chapter thirty-nine.

Emmanuel means God with us.  But do you really live like you believe that God is with you?  Even when the doctor says it’s cancer, or you’re laid off at work!  Today on Abounding Grace we continue the story of Joseph in Genesis chapter 39, and pastor Ed Taylor doesn’t want us to lose sight of this… God was with Joseph every step of the way.  Even in his trials and temptation.  The same holds true for each of us.

Pastor Ed Taylor is our Bible teacher, and today he opens Genesis chapter 38.  As you closely examine the family tree of Jesus, you quickly see it’s full of big time sinners.  But this ought to encourage us.  You see, we’re big sinners too.  And God has the grace to meet us where we’re at and adopt us into His family.

We revisit First Corinthians this weekend, and currently unveiling the manifestations of the Spirit that we find in chapter twelve.  As we read our Bibles we notice God did some amazing miracles, from the parting of the Red Sea, to saving Daniel from being eaten in a Lion’s Den, or how about Jonah being swallowed by a big fish and living to tell about it!  But does God still do miracles today?  Let’s find out!

Last time we heard a part of the story of Joseph, and his brothers selling him into slavery.  Today we’ll pay particular attention to the older brother Judah.  As you’ll see he made a series of very bad decisions that would lead to severe consequences.  But through it all we’ll be reminded of God’s amazing grace and that Jesus is a friend of sinners.

Today we continue our study in Genesis.  And we’ve just entered into the section about Joseph’s life in chapter 37.  As you’ll hear in a moment he’s about to have a dream that angered his brothers greatly.  So much so, they conspired to kill him.  It stands out in scripture as a reminder of what hatred, anger and envy can do to us and lead to.

Ed Taylor is leading us on an inspiring and challenging study through the book of Genesis, and today we’re going to look at chapter thirty-seven.  Here we’re introduced to Joseph who experienced quite a bit of pain and difficulty in his life.  But through it all God was molding and shaping him into the man he wanted him to be. You can be sure, the Lord is up to the same good work in us.

Today we focus our time and attention on Genesis chapters 35 and 36.  Last time we were together, Jacob received a new name and that’s Israel.  His new identity is, he's now governed by God.  And that’s a good place to be, even for us today.  As we’re governed by God we’ll find that’s the place of blessing and victory.
