Genesis 43:1-17, 26-34
Stuck in Ignorance
Summary
In this incredible message, we explore the story of Joseph and his brothers from Genesis 43, uncovering profound truths about God’s character and our response to the unknown. We’re reminded that when faced with uncertainty, like Jacob and his sons during the famine, we often try to control everything within our reach. However, the real comfort comes from knowing God’s character: He wants to be asked, He is almighty and able, He is merciful, and He is sovereign. This knowledge allows us to trust Him even when we can’t see the full picture. The message challenges us to recognize God’s constant provision in our lives, from the mundane to the miraculous, and to document these blessings daily to cultivate gratitude and trust.
