You Don't Always See How God is Working Part 2

July 23, 2024

When something bad happens in our lives, we so often fixate on the circumstances and how we feel about it.  But we so often fail to recognize how God uses what we go through to accomplish a greater plan and purpose.   He did this for Joseph as you’ll hear today on Abounding Grace.  Pastor Ed Taylor visits Genesis chapter 45 and helps us to see what God is up to, even through that difficulty you may be facing right now!

How to Break a Stubborn Habit by Erwin Lutzer

Want to break a stubborn habit or two? Maybe it’s a tendency to worry, drink alcohol, lust or curse. And perhaps you’re finding it very difficult to break!

Past Episodes

Pastor Ed Taylor will be in Genesis 45 today.  It’s time for the big reveal, as Joseph is about to make himself known to his brothers.  It’s an eye-opener in more ways than one!  You’ll soon hear how God helped Joseph to see beyond the evil act of his brothers to God’s greater purpose!  It’s also a reminder to us that we don’t always see how God is working behind the scenes.

For quite a few weeks we’ve been looking at the manifestations of the Spirit.  Think of these as spiritual power tools, or helps that come alongside your spiritual giftings for a specific time and reason.  On occasion the Lord may give you the ability to speak into a person’s life.  It may be a comforting word, or something along the lines of exhortation or edification.  That’s really what the manifestation of prophecy is all about.  Learn all about it today.

Today we're in Genesis chapter 44.  God has His ways of getting us to the place He wants us to be.  Often that involves the trying of our faith!  We see that in the story of Joseph and his brothers.  God is working on their hearts, and these brothers are coming to the end of themselves.  And that’s a good thing.

You can be sure that in this life you’ll face trials and testings. But here’s something to remember in the midst of it… God is up to something good and He has a wonderful plan for you.  That rises to the surface in our study of the life of Joseph today on Abounding Grace.

Don’t you love a good story of reconciliation?  People who separated due to hurt and mistreatment, and the relationship over time is restored.  We’ve got a good one for you between Joseph and his brothers today.  I think you’ll be encouraged as you hear how the Lord also reconciles us to God through Jesus.

In Genesis chapter 43 Jacob is at a fork in the road, will he walk in the light or darkness?  That’s actually a decision each of us are faced with throughout life. Let’s be encouraged to live in the light, and keep things clean before the Lord.

We may look at all the evil and injustice in the world and start to wonder, “Are they getting away with it!”  The truth of the matter is, as we’ll discover today, your sin will find you out. Sin and its consequences will not stay hidden forever.  So it’s best to deal with it as God would have us, and come clean before the Lord.

For the last couple of months we’ve been enjoying a study in First Corinthians, and right now considering the various manifestations of the Spirit.  There are nine of them, and beginning today pastor Ed Taylor will have a look into Prophecy.  Like many of these manifestations there’s a great deal of confusion surrounding it.  Some are even weirded out by it, or want nothing to do with it.  But when you come to understand that this is just the workings of the Spirit, and Him being made visible on the earth, that certainly should put our minds at ease.
