WHAT ON EARTH IS GOD DOING?

GENESIS 37                                        

Pastor Rick Jackson

 

Why doesn’t God do something? Why didn’t God stop that wicked man? Why? What? Where? How? When?

 

I. WHY DOESN’T GOD DO SOMETHING TO HELP JOSEPH?

 

1. He Has [Gn. 37:3-4, 8, 11-22]

 

2. He Will [Gn. 37:23-28, 42:18-22, 44:18, 33-34]

 

3. He Did [Gn. 45:1-8]

 

II. WHAT DID JACOB LEARN ABOUT JOSEPH AND GOD?

 

1. He Is Alive [Gn. 45:26]

 

2. He Is Lord [Gn. 45:9, 26]

 

3. He Is Loaded [45:10-11, 27-28]

 

III. WHAT SHOULD WE TAKE FROM THIS?

 

1. Whatever it is- It Is For the Glory of God [Jn. 11:40]

 

2. Whatever it is- It Is For Our Good [Gn. 50:20, Rm. 8:28-39]

 

3. Whatever it is- Grant God the Right to Be God [Rm. 9:20, 11:30-36]

 

A man’s prize horse ran away.  Neighbor said that’s too bad. Man said “What do I know about such things?” 20 wild horses. “That’s good” Son’s broken leg. Thugs looking for able-bodied boys. Why don’t you wait until you are standing before God and let Him show you how it all worked out.
