Welcome to the living word of God in genesis chapter 47 verse 27 it says so Israel dwelled in the land of Egypt in the country of Goshen and they had possessions there and grew and multiplied exceedingly brothers and sisters Israel had just come to Egypt at the age of 130 he had lived just for 17 years but the bible says they multiplied they had possessions and they grew and multiplied exceedingly how was that possible because God was with Israel God was with Israel that in a foreign land in his pilgrimage in Egypt he was blessed that he multiplied exceedingly that he had possessions and that is exactly what Jesus said seeking first the kingdom of God and if God is with you and you you are with God God will add all these things brothers and sisters where is our faith today where is our claim to be a Christian a follower of Christ are we running after those worldly possessions or are we following Christ Israel followed God God was with Israel and in Egypt God blessed him and he had possessions and he multiplied exceedingly oh brothers and sisters if we want our church to grow if we want to multiply and increase in this world we live in the spiritual Egypt brothers and sisters but if we are to have possessions if we are to multiply and grow we are to be with God and God will help us to multiply and grow I tell you brothers and sisters if you read in the book of exodus chapter 1 it says the children of Israel multiplied and multiplied exceedingly I tell you brothers and sisters with God in the spiritual Egypt we can be successful we live in a spiritual Egypt brothers and sisters but in this spiritual Egypt if God is with us everything is possible why because there is nothing impossible with God is there something impossible with God nothing and therefore with God all things are possible may that be our experience Amen
