Genesis 40-41 Joseph–Pointing Us to Jesus

In this study:

  • How Joseph endured what seemed like meaningless and unjust treatment, yet kept a right spirit
  • How he helps us appreciate those with the gift of mercy
  • How God continues to speak through dreams and visions
  • The difference in being content and being fatalistic when we are in difficult circumstances
  • The importance of preachers and teachers teaching the bad news of judgment and the consequences of sin, as well as the good news of God’s love and grace
  • How we often think we have learned God’s lessons when He knows we really have not
  • How God often uses one of His men to explain His truth to an unbeliever
  • The need for us to pray that God will raise up counselors like Joseph again today
  • How Joseph’s life experiences parallel the life of Jesus
  • How God honored Joseph’s two sons

Stay in the battle!
