Welcome to the living word of God in Genesis chapter 15 verse 17 onward now that Israel have gone to rest in faith and in the lord waiting for the great resurrection day Joseph’s brothers were now afraid of Joseph what would Joseph do in the absence of our father and so they said I beg you please forgive the trespass of your brothers so they send somebody to beg for forgiveness
oh brothers and sisters when you realize that you have heard and wronged somebody do you ask for forgiveness please let us learn to ask for forgiveness when we have committed mistakes intentionally or unintentionally verse 19 then Joseph said to them do not be afraid for am I in the place of God verse 20 but as for you you meant evil against me but God made it good in order to bring it upon that as in this day to save many people’s life I tell you brothers and sisters if we learn to ask forgiveness
God and most if not all are ready to forgive Christianity is all about forgiving and being forgiven confession and repentance and forgiven
when his brothers repented he forgave and Joseph said am I in the place of God oh brothers and sisters when you come to a position do you punish somebody because that somebody was against you oh do we have the attitude of Joseph can we say that you mended evil against me but it was good in the plan of the lord to save people’s life may we be like Joseph today that when we are in the position to either punish or to be a blessing may we choose to forgive others who have wronged us and not only forgive but be a blessing to all may that be our blessing. Amen
