1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Let us pray, and Israel said, unto Joseph, now let 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: me die, since I have seen thy face, because thou 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: art yet alive Genesis forty six thirty. Dear Lord, I 4 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: thank you that as I stay connected to you like Joseph, 5 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: the transformation of my life will be so drastic that 6 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: others won't recognize me. Thank you, Heavenly Father, that you 7 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: care about relationships and that you long to bring healing 8 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: and understanding to broken relationships. Therefore, I thank you in 9 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: advance for mending the wounded relationships in my life and 10 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: for giving me the maturity to operate in divine forgiveness. 11 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: Speak to my heart, Holy Spirit like Jacob, and remind 12 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: me that I can make the journey to my promise 13 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: and that time is not against me. On my side, 14 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: I choose to change my perspective and realized that nothing 15 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: happens to me, but because I'm in alignment with You, Lord, 16 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: everything happens for me. For I know that what Satan 17 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: meant for evil, God, you will turn it for my good. 18 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, Amen, Listening to these daily prayers strengthens 19 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: your relationship with God. Continue hearing from the Lord by 20 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: listening to today's Bible in a Year brought to you 21 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: by Bible in a Year dot. 22 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: Com, Joseph reunited with his family. Before this story, we 23 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: learned how Joseph tested his brothers to see if their 24 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: hearts had truly changed. He tricked them into thinking Benjamin 25 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: had stole in a silver cup. When Joseph threatened to 26 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: take Benjamin away, the brothers wept and offered themselves up instead. 27 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: This showed Joseph that their hearts had truly been softened 28 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: over the years, and Joseph was ready to reveal his 29 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 2: true identity to his brothers. Now we will learn about 30 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 2: how Joseph is reunited with his whole family, inspired by 31 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: the Book of Genesis. 32 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 3: Hello, I'm Jack Graham with today's episode of the Bible 33 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 3: in a Year podcast. In our previous time together, we 34 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 3: learned how Joseph's brothers traveled to Egypt, not knowing their 35 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 3: long lost brother Joseph was alive and well and now 36 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 3: he is the second in command in all of Egypt. 37 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: We discovered that Joseph's brothers had indeed become different men. 38 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 3: We don't know how, but somehow they are changed, and 39 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 3: when Joseph saw them falling before him and begging him 40 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 3: to release their youngest brother, Benjamin. He was too much 41 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: for Joe of tabear. And so today we're going to 42 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: learn how Joseph responded in that significant moment, and how 43 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 3: his response to his brothers testified powerfully to God's sovereignty, 44 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 3: God's perfect plan and grace. Listen for Joseph's words as 45 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 3: he explains how God worked through his life to save 46 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 3: the lives of many. His response and the offer he 47 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 3: makes to his brothers will set them on a course 48 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: that will dramatically change the history of the world and 49 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 3: the history of God's people. Let's listen now to today's story 50 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 3: of revelation, reconciliation, and reunion. 51 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: Joseph watched as his brothers bowed before him, begging that 52 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 2: he spared the life of their youngest brother. The hard 53 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: hearts they once had were softened by time and grief. 54 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: He saw on his brother's a love and humility he 55 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 2: had never seen in them before. Joseph's throat tensed, and 56 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 2: he held back tears and turned towards his servants and 57 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: guards in the room. Everyone leave me, he shouted. So 58 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: everybody left, all but his brothers. Joseph stood in front 59 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 2: of his brothers, then began to weep greatly. His cries 60 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 2: could be heard from the palace gates and echoed through 61 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: the halls of Pharaoh's household. Joseph, tears streaming from his face, said, 62 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: I am Joseph. He walked closer to his brothers, watching 63 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: their amazed faces. Is my father still alive? He asked, 64 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 2: still weeping. His brothers could not answer him. They were 65 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: dismayed and completely caught off guard. Please come closer to me, 66 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: he asked again. So they came near, watching him with 67 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: pensive stairs. Joseph could tell they needed more explanation. For 68 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 2: the last time they saw him, he was being shipped 69 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: off into slavery. Now he stood before them, a governor 70 00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: of the most powerful nation on earth. I am your brother, Joseph, 71 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: whom you sold into slavery. Please do not hate yourselves 72 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: for what you have done to me. God sent me 73 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: here to preserve the lives of thousands of people, Joseph said. 74 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 2: He explained to them how God had used him to 75 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: save the lives of the land and all those who 76 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: dwell outside of it. So it was not you who 77 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:28,799 Speaker 2: sent me here, but God, Joseph said. Joseph found himself ranting, 78 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: yet could not help himself. There was so much he 79 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: wanted to share in so much lost time he had 80 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 2: with them. Finally, he gave them an invitation, one that 81 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 2: would change the course of human history. God has made 82 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: me lord over all of Egypt. Come down to me 83 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: and dwell in this land with me. Bring your families, 84 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: flocks and herds, and I will provide for you. Joseph 85 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: offered this so that his family might be saved from 86 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 2: the coming years of famine. Joseph then fell on Benjamin's 87 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: neck and kissed him. He kissed all his brothers and 88 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 2: embraced them. Slowly, all eleven of them began to speak 89 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 2: to him. Still dismayed over what had just transpired, word 90 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: came to Pharaoh, and he was pleased with the news 91 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 2: and offered his family the best land Egypt had to offer. 92 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 2: Joseph then sent them on their way with wagons to 93 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 2: fetch their father and families. The brothers arrived back to 94 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 2: their father and told him all that had transpired. Israel, 95 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 2: who had lived in a daze of grief and mourning 96 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: ever since Joseph's departure, found himself revived. I must see 97 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: him before I die, Israel exclaimed. They departed as soon 98 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: as they could. In Israel with all his family, servants 99 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: and livestock, ventured towards Egypt. As Israel was traveling, he 100 00:06:54,120 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: heard a familiar voice, Jacob. Jacob, God spoke gently. Here 101 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 2: I am, he replied, adoring the sweet comfort of hearing 102 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: the Lord's voice. I am the God of your father. 103 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, he said, 104 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: for Israel was old and the journey was tumultuous for 105 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: someone his age. For there is where I will make 106 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: you a great nation. I will go down with you. 107 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 2: So Israel and his people made a sacrifice to God 108 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: and traveled to the land Goshen, on the outskirts of Egypt. 109 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: Israel sent Judah out to fetch Joseph, and Joseph immediately 110 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: took his chariot to pursue them. Joseph rode harder than 111 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: he ever had before. Tears fell off his face and 112 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: blew into the wind. As he rode towards the country side, 113 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: a small dot could be spotted in the distance, and 114 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: Joseph saw the face of his father. As he drew 115 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: closer and closer, he came to them. Dismounted and ran 116 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: towards his father and fell on his neck. The two 117 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 2: he embraced for a long while before speaking, weeping tears 118 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 2: that had been held in for years. At last, Israel 119 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 2: could die a happy man. After reuniting with his father, 120 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: Joseph spoke to Pharaoh about setting his family up on Goshan. 121 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: He instructed them that they mentioned how skilled of herders 122 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: they are instead of shepherds, for Egyptians loathed shepherds. Joseph's 123 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 2: family settled in the land of Goshen and thrived under 124 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: the care of Pharaoh. The rest of Egypt, however, suffered 125 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: from the famine, but Joseph's governance and wisdom guided them 126 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 2: into flourishing. The Egyptians and Hebrews loved Joseph, and all 127 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 2: considered him to be their greatest treasure. The time had 128 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 2: finally come for Jacob to depart from this world and 129 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 2: be with his Lord. His eyes dimmed as his fathers 130 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 2: once did. Jacob touched his hip, still sore from years 131 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: ago when he wrestled with God. He had lived a 132 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 2: long and prosperous life and had seen his sons grow 133 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: to be fathers and lords of their own households. He 134 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: asked to be buried in his homeland, Canaan. The side 135 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: Laya Jacob blessed Joseph's sons as well as Pharaoh. The 136 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: Egyptian sons set turning the surrounding dunes up bright orange. Jacob, 137 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 2: the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, father of Nations, 138 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 2: breathed his last at a ripe old age. His sons 139 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: mourned and journeyed back to Canaan once more to bury 140 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 2: their father. Joseph for as long as he lived protected 141 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: his brothers and their families, the Hebrew people thrived and prospered, 142 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: and the years of famine came to a cease. They 143 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: multiplied and lived under the blessing and provision of God. 144 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 2: Yet their journey was far from over, and their hardship 145 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: had not even begun. 146 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 3: This is a very dramatic story as it opens with 147 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: Joseph's holding back his tears. He is overcome with emotion 148 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 3: as he witnesses the selfless actions of his brothers, the 149 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: brothers who so long ago hated and despised him. He 150 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 3: is finally ready to reveal his true identity to these men, 151 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: and when he does, they of course are terrified this 152 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 3: young boy who they so callously threw into a pit 153 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 3: and left him for dead, then sold him for profit. 154 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 3: Now had their own lives in this very powerful man's hands, 155 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 3: but Joseph rushes to reassure them that there is no 156 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 3: need for terror, guilt, or shame. Joseph, now thirty years 157 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 3: of age, shows his maturity, and he wants his brothers 158 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 3: to know that they do not need to beat themselves 159 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 3: up over their past sins. When they first came to Egypt, 160 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: he overheard them speaking of their guilt for his blood, 161 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 3: and so he knows that they are filled with regret. 162 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 3: When we have the opportunity to confront someone who may 163 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 3: have sinned against us, especially if they've been changed and 164 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,599 Speaker 3: are now remorseful and repentant, do we offer mercy and 165 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 3: comfort or do we relish the shame and lay on 166 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: more guilt and more guilt and more shame. Joseph could 167 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: have easily done the latter, but he chose the former 168 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: and gave us a great model to follow. It's a 169 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 3: beautiful picture of what Christ would one day do for 170 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 3: all of us. When Jesus on the cross even prayed 171 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 3: for his enemies, Father forgive them for they do not 172 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 3: know what they do. Rather than blaming his brothers, he 173 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: believes in God and thanks God for what God has 174 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: done and professes it by saying, what you meant for evil, 175 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 3: God has meant for good. Joseph wasn't saying God caused 176 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: his brothers to do evil. That's not God's nature. But 177 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: God in his sovereignty, God, in his goodness and kindness, 178 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: worked through Joseph's circumstances and brought him exactly where he 179 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: needed to be and preserved his life. Joseph doesn't simply 180 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 3: extend forgiveness and tell them to go on their way 181 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 3: and be well. He knows God's purpose is much greater, 182 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 3: and he invites them to bring their families, their flocks, 183 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 3: and herds to Egypt to fully rescue them from the 184 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: famine that is still devastating the world. When his brothers 185 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 3: return to Canaan and give Jacob to good news, he 186 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 3: has overcome with joy. He knows he must go to 187 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 3: his son. On the way, God speaks to him and 188 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 3: reaffirms the promise to make him a great nation, and 189 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 3: then to tell him that Egypt is the next stop 190 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 3: on his journey with the Lord. When Joseph and Jacob 191 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: finally meet, tears of joy stream down their faces. What 192 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: seemed impossible so long ago, now God has made reality. 193 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 3: The Hebrews grow in number and prosperity alongside the Egyptians. 194 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 3: There's no fear or ill will, and Jacob departs this 195 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 3: earth a happy man, asking only to be buried in 196 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 3: his homeland of Canaan. As they bury their father, the 197 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 3: brothers are once again fearful of what Joseph will do 198 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 3: if he was only biding his time until their old 199 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 3: father was gone, but Joseph once again reassures them what 200 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 3: they meant for evil God us for good. Here Joseph's 201 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 3: story ends. It ends in peace and prosperity and blessing 202 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 3: and favor. But when we return to Egypt, we'll find 203 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: a much different reality for the descendants of Joseph. Let's 204 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 3: pray together, Dear God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. 205 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 3: We pray in the name of your son Jesus Christ, 206 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: thanking us that even in the most impossible situations, you 207 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 3: bring about your purpose and your plan for our lives. 208 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 3: That we can trust you because we know that you 209 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 3: are a good God, that you do good that you 210 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 3: are good, and you are working all things together for 211 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 3: your perfect will in our lives and for your glory alone, 212 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: and in your name, we pray Amen.
