Joseph’s Confession Faith(Genesis 50:15~21)

  You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives(20).

Hymn #86 Oh, the Best Friend to Have is Jesus(Unified Hymn 86)

  Forcing yourself to endure only brings sickness, while doing nothing leads to losing everything. Struggling on your own makes things worse. The way to find God’s blessings is by holding onto the exact covenant He gave to your ancestors of faith. The covenant includes the promise of Christ, the offspring of the woman from the incident of Garden of Eden(Genesis 3 - 3:15), the covenant of the ark during the flood in Noah’s time(Genesis 6 - 6:14), the covenant given during the Tower of Babel incident(Genesis 11 - 12:1~3), and the covenant of the ram provided on Mt. Moriah(Genesis 22 - 22:13~18). When you discover the right answer, your perspective will change. For Joseph, his mother’s death became a stepping stone, his brothers’ threats prepared his vessel, prison became the path to success, and the betrayal of the cupbearer opened his eyes to God’s perfect time schedule. When someone with the accurate covenant makes a confession of faith, blessings follow for 100 years, 1,000 years, and even for eternity, transforming their fate. It’s because the light shines upon the darkness, leading to the fulfillment of world evangelization.

1. The Confession of Faith at Home Saves the Family
  Joseph told his family about his dream of the sun, moon, and stars bowing before him. That dream pointed to world evangelization. His brothers hated him for it and sold him as a slave. Yet Joseph later became the prime minister of Egypt. Also, the time of the great famine ended up saving his entire family.

2. The Confession of Faith in the Field Saves the Field
  Even as a slave, the Lord was with Joseph, and everything he did prospered. Potiphar saw this and made him overseer of his household. The same blessing followed him even when he was falsely framed and imprisoned. There, he met the cupbearer, a meeting that changed both his fate and the world.

3. The Fulfilled Confession of Faith Leads to World Evangelization
  Through the cupbearer, Joseph was introduced to Pharaoh. Deeply moved by Joseph’s words, the Pharaoh appointed him as prime minister(Genesis 41:16, 38). This event led to world evangelization.

  Joseph’s entire journey was his covenant journey. Likewise, there may be hardships along the path you take. Even still, don’t fear. Instead, you must gain the 300% strength that comes from the Spirit of the Lord and embark on your journey.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, may Joseph’s confession of faith become mine. Help me see Your absolute plan amidst despair. As I hold onto Your accurate covenant, may You work upon me with Your power. May today be that day. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray. Amen.
