A Time of Renewal
Parashat Bo
In God’s Time
God’s promise hasn’t failed. He’s still at work, bringing all things into alignment to bring a miraculous salvation so that all the world will know that He is the One True God.
Reach for the Miracle
We have hope in the midst of growing darkness that God raises up a redeemer. God is working in all things, has them all in his hand, preparing to bring about a momentous deliverance!
Where is Your Inheritance?
Though Joseph and his brothers prospered in the land of Egypt, they knew their true home was in the Land God had promised to them in Canaan. So too, are we to prosper in the places God has given us, always remembering where our true home is.
Lost and Found
The story of Joseph’s life is a story of restoration. A story that has within it multiple aspects of people seeking out what had been lost.
Joseph was lost to his brothers, and the brothers were lost to Joseph. Even though they were separated, it was God’s intention to bring them back together.
Eyes to See: It’s In God’s Hands
God reigns supreme! He is Lord over all and holds all things in His hand. He can cause what is visible to be hidden and what is hidden to be revealed!
Humility, Perseverance and Hope!
Regardless of the situation Joseph faced, whether over Potiphar’s house or a prisoner, he walked in righteousness and God prospered him. Joseph’s trust was in God and God was with him.
Don’t Grow Weary!
Through the challenges facing Jacob as he returns from exile, he remains strong – seeking reconciliation, praying and even wrestling with an angel through the night such that he might overcome!
Overcoming the Past
Jacob’s encounter with God brings a transformation, and Jacob leaves behind his past of deception and begins anew, walking in righteousness in all his dealings.
Praying in to Promises
God’s promises are true and sure. Even still, He calls us to partner with Him in prayer, believing He will bring His promises to completion. The body of Messiah must arise and to contend for righteousness and justice, and for the manifestation of God’s Kingdom on the earth!
