Joseph's prosperity
Genesis 39:1-6
hallelujah.
I will confess my faith.
You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Everyone's earnest wish is for everything to go well.
We all wish for everything to go our way, for life to be long and healthy, and for life to be smooth sailing with no failures, no separations, no problems, no misunderstandings, and no slander.
When you have a son, especially a child, you raise your child with the expectation that he will grow up to be a great person throughout his life, but as all parents wish, not all children will succeed without any problems or difficulties.
It's not up to me.
Things don't always go the way I want them to.
As we go through life, we face financial hardships, are betrayed, and lose loved ones.
No matter how hard a person works to achieve success, he or she can only achieve success if he or she focuses on everything according to the 10,000-hour rule.
Not everyone who does music, politics, etc. becomes successful.
Sports aren't something you can become a professional at simply by doing it for a long time.
No matter how hard you work, not everyone can become a tycoon.
No amount of human success, whether artistic, athletic, or medical, can prevent disaster.
There is no way to stop the darkness that will come one day.
There is no way to solve the spiritual problems that come to our children one day.
Everyone, we often think that it is a common occurrence for a child who was doing well to one day receive a divine gift and tell fortunes for others.
There are so many people suffering mentally around us.
There are so many people suffering from depression, panic disorder, addiction, and social phobia.
What parent would want their beloved child to be born into this world and suffer from such problems?
Not everything happens the way I want it to.
Even if our wishes were fulfilled, it would not bring us success or happiness.
No parent can guarantee their child a lifetime of care, even if they work hard for their child their entire life.
People resent it, and when they can't stand it, they commit suicide.
There are many people who go to prison and spend their entire lives there.
These are things that humans cannot do with their own power.
So then, what is the prosperity that the Bible speaks of?
It is said that Joseph became a successful man because God was with him.
Was Joseph born into this world and lived happily ever after without any difficulties? No.
There is not a single person who lives their entire life without difficulties, hardships, or failures.
The seven remnants of the Bible, the elite of this world, the people of the early church, the kings of Rome, none of them could live without difficulties.
Unable to endure these things, the early church people of that time went underground and lived in catacombs.
When Joseph was young, his mother died giving birth to his younger brother.
Joseph lost his mother when he needed her love the most.
Furthermore, there was another mother. There were also many older brothers.
Father Jacob loved Joseph especially because he was the son of his old age, and he gave him a coat of many colors.
Joseph's brothers hated and were jealous of him because their father loved only him.
When he went so far as to tell his father about his brothers' mistakes, his brothers did not stay still.
When Joseph came near the cistern, his brothers tried to drown him in it.
Eventually, Joseph's brothers sold him into slavery.
At that time, he ended up living as a slave to Potiphar, the twelfth commander.
Is it good to be a slave? But God was with Joseph and he became a good man.
He was expected to be loved by his master and do well, but Potiphar's wife seduced Joseph, and Joseph resisted her. However, Joseph was falsely accused and sent to prison.
Joseph began to interpret the dreams of the officials in prison.
Joseph interpreted the dream and later said, “Get me out of here,” but the Bible says that one of the officials who interpreted the dream forgot about Joseph.
One day, the king had a dream.
He called all the fortune tellers in the world and asked them to interpret the king's dream.
However, the drunken official remembered Joseph's interpretation of the dream in prison, and Joseph immediately interpreted the king's dream, thereby becoming prime minister.
Joseph ordered the building of storehouses to buy grain in preparation for seven years of plenty and seven years of famine.
During the famine, many countries came to Egypt because they heard that it had an abundance of grain.
What do these say, folks?
What is the most important key point that God wants to make through Joseph?
The most important absolute plan that God wants to do through Joseph is world evangelization.
In other words, Joseph went on a journey of covenant all his life.
In the midst of hatred, in the midst of suffering, in the midst of imprisonment, he enjoyed the blessings of the throne that no one in this world knows.
As you listen to this message today, please do not think that it is simply the story of Joseph.
If you, as a saved child of God, do not know the secret of the throne, there is no reason for you to be worshiping here.
Why do we dedicate ourselves, give donations, and go on overseas missions?
The actions of religious life do not fit the principles of the world.
People wonder why you spend money and practice religion.
If you do not enjoy the secrets of this throne and the secrets of the church, then it is just a religious life.
If you pray all your life, there will be nothing left.
Even demon-possessed people talk to Satan and perform miracles.
Sometimes it cures illnesses and even tells fortunes.
Adults are helpless in front of helpless children.
What's here?
Why should a child and servant of God who has received the Holy Spirit be embarrassed in front of an unbeliever?
Christ is a mystery, known only to those who know Him.
Believing in Jesus Christ is not something that just anyone can do.
If you truly believe in Jesus, you have not received countless spirits of servants.
I am afraid of the future.
We have received the spirit from God.
Does a person who has received the Holy Spirit have any reason to worry?
Wherever you go, Jehovah will be with you.
As the choir sang today, if you can pray, you can do it.
It is said that a failed loser saw a ghost. This prompted him to build a temple on the mountain.
How unfortunate it would be if the children of God who have been saved did not know the secrets and blessings of the throne while worshipping.
You need to know this.
Even when Daniel was thrown into the lion's den, he prayed and gave thanks as he had done before.
Daniel had the blessing of the throne and had no reason to be afraid even when he was thrown into the lions' den.
If you listen to the words proclaimed from the pulpit today not as the words of men but as the words of God, you will be successful.
No problem is a problem. This is the journey of the covenant.
This is the CVDIP journey.
Leave behind a work of art of an era.
You must actually enjoy this secret.
So at this time, we must come before the Lord and let go of the idea that we can do it and accomplish it.
No matter how much you become a tycoon, president, or hero in this land, there is no way to stop disaster and curse.
No matter how much wealth we accumulate, it is only necessary for living on this earth; it does not give us life, eternal life, or prevent disaster.
However, people are more influenced and deceived by money, success, and people's words than by God.
God's voice must be heard.
Only when we hear the voice of God can we be used for world evangelization.
What kind of heart should we have every time we come before the Lord? We should come with a heart that is thirsty and sorrowful.
When you come before the Lord, you must confess that you need God's grace and God's gospel.
The gospel is our only answer.
It has to be by the power of the Holy Spirit.
The only absolute possibility in the absolute impossible is success.
Our pastor spoke about the eight blessings.
Only with Jesus, Satan cannot go wild.
Otherwise there is no reason to believe in Jesus.
Jesus is the only one.
The kingdom of God is only.
The fullness of the Holy Spirit is only.
So from this moment on, we must throw away all our thoughts and ambitions.
God's purpose in saving us is not to make us slaves and suffer.
Sometimes there may be conflict in the family. Sometimes you may be accused of something.
Mr. Kim Kwon-sa appeared today.
You received chemotherapy at the hospital. How is Deaconess Kang Ja-ae? She is desperate.
As soon as Sungchan was born, he came to church.
Most people ask, “What kind of church is this?” and try to live by our own abilities.
But the attacks of darkness cannot be stopped.
We are all lacking. We cannot survive without grace.
I heard about Jesus with a longing heart, and I had the earnest faith and desire that my illness would be healed if I just touched the hem of Jesus' garment.
I think it's better for me to go to heaven than to live like this at this age.
Now, I have to spend the rest of my life working for the kingdom of God. How should I do that?
I keep thinking that I should enjoy the secret of the 24-hour gospel.
Guys, it must be 24 hours.
It should be 24 hours a day.
Is this okay? No.
The rice cake must not become a fact.
The gospel must be available 24 hours a day.
The purpose of our lives must be aligned with world evangelization.
That way you are right with God.
Who would you like to associate with or travel with?
I don't want to eat with just anyone.
You must become friends with God.
Let us tell God all our wishes.
God becomes our Father.
You are children of God. He has given you everything, treasures, and knowledge of God, including Jesus Christ.
So, you guys, the Israelites came out of Egypt covered in blood and lived in the wilderness for 40 years where there was nothing.
Could this be possible?
God only told us to build a tabernacle, place the Ark of the Covenant, and observe three feasts.
They wanted to abandon the slave mentality and legal system in Egypt, welcome Jesus Christ, and evangelize the world through Christ.
In the midst of many conflicts, the Israelites even opposed Moses.
Together with the newly born people, he was eventually able to conquer Israel along with Joshua and Caleb.
Through today’s message, I would like to compare the prosperity of the world with that of Joseph.
However, Joseph's prosperity made him the object of envy among his brothers at home.
There God was with Joseph.
Even if you went as a slave and worked as a household manager, a slave is a slave. Joseph cannot become the master there.
As I have already said, the blessing of the assistant is 24 hours.
I was in constant communication with God and with my assistants 24 hours a day.
When Joseph went into slavery, when he went to prison, God was with him there too.
This blessing was not enjoyed as a slave, nor was it enjoyed while suffering under the hands of his brothers, but was enjoyed from the time he was a child.
God sent Joseph to the captain of the guard's house as a slave.
Why on earth would you do that?
He led Joseph there to meet the politician.
Joseph is imprisoned in a prison that holds political prisoners.
This enabled Joseph to stand before the king.
The decisive encounter ultimately leads to Joseph standing before the king and interpreting his dreams, thereby becoming prime minister.
So what happened because of Joseph's prosperity?
Looking at the text for today, we see that God blessed him from the time he started serving in Potiphar's house and field.
When Joseph stood before the king, what did he say to Pharaoh?
"God will give you the answers."
In preparation for the seven years of famine, he bought up all the remaining grain in Egypt and sold it all over the world, thereby spreading the gospel throughout the world.
There were many problems in Egypt, but God saved the family because of one man, Joseph.
You guys, don't take this lightly.
Regardless of my abilities, Jesus is Christ.
Christ is the solution to all problems.
People from all over the world, from all over the country, came to buy grain from each country.
Kneel before Joseph.
It is God's purpose.
This is what God did.
Truly, from this moment on, when the power of the aide comes upon you, the gospel will be witnessed throughout the world.
If Joseph had not known about the blessing of the throne, he would have resented his brothers for putting him in this position because of him.
I will betray God
“You intended to harm me, but God changed my mind,” Joseph said to his brothers.
Since you are saved children of God, I hope you will enjoy the blessings of the throne no matter what problems you face.
May you be blessed with the blessings of the assistant.
Thank you, God.
Just as Joseph enjoyed the blessing of the throne, may all the saints enjoy the blessing of the throne.
In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
