JOSEPH M lIHIIMOXV TO GOO'S PROVIDENCE LESSON TEXT -Gcneele «:!•». 9 15 GOLDEN TEXT-Oh that men would praise the Lord fur hi» fuvdneat. and tor his wonderful umka to the children of men!—Peaim lu7 • God rule* the universe He ha* Hu plan which will be carried out, yes. even in spite of man if need be ‘"He can overrule the act* even us wicked men and make them link* in a chain of providence by which Hi* purposes ate carried out." Furgivcness. opening the way for the reiteration of fellowship and the showing of kindness, brought the story of Joseph and hi* brethren to a happy ending. Under the good hand of God. the story which began with tragedy Is brought to a conclusion of blessing I. Love Overcomes Fear <vv 1-4). Following the earnest plea of Judah. the heart of Joseph could no longer withhold itself from the full expression of aftection and devotion to his family Joseph tenderly shielded the family troubles from the eye* and ear* of stranger* by sending out th* Egyptians It was the first step of consideration which paved the way for reconciliation. How often juxt the opjxisite is done—airing family affairs before the world, and humiliating those who niAy be in the wrong, thus making it difficult for them to admit tbc-ir guilt. Then. too. this was a moment too tender and delicate to be seen by outsiders. The tears of a strong man like Joseph mean a deep movement of spirit—a solemn and often a sacred moment It should also lx* noted that the brothers were afraid, and well they might be. because of their sin against Joseph After many year* these astonished men found themselves face to face with the one whom they thought they had disposed of and they knew their sin had found them out. It always does, sooner or later, but inevitably. 11. Grace Overrules Min (v. 5). The guilt of these men v.as nonetheless real and Joseph could not remove it. but he encouraged them by showing how God had used their evil device* to work out Hi* own good pleasure. He can make the wrath of man to praise Him (Ps. 78:10). It is worth stressing egain that in the very hour when the prospects for Joseph’s future usefulness seemed ruined. God was opening the door to the greatest experiences of his life and was preparing him to serve the thousands whose lives were saved by hi* wisdom and ability in the years us famine. Nothing is more important in the life of a child us God than to be yielded to Hi* will, unmoved by circumstances. abiding HU time, responding to His guidance whether it Ise by the opening or closing of door*, prosperity or adversity. And herein is the marvel of it all—even •tn may be overruled by God's grace for His own glory. That does not invite anyone to sin that grace may abound <Rotn. 6 1,2), but it doe* offer encouragement to the one who ha* failen, that God can redeem the years that the locust* have eaten (Joel 2:25). Our lesson also sets' u* an example of how true forgiveness acts. So often when forgiveness is asked or granted, there is an "I can forgive but I can't forget'' attitude, which means that while hostilities have eeased at least temporarily, there is no real friendship or the disposition to show kindness. Is there any real forgiveness at ail in such an attitude of heart and mind? We fear not 111. Kindness Provide* the Best <w. 9-15), It might have been enough to tend food and a kind greeting with the brothers to their own land, but love does not seek the minimum expression of its feeling. It asks not how little, but how much can I give or do. Note the tender touch in verse IS, "he kissed ail his brethren." Here was no general forgiveness, but a personal renewal us long-lost fellowship. Bri&ging his aged father and brothers into the land of plenty was not enough. Joseph also gave to them the "best of the land'’ 447:11). His thoughtful consideration in sending ter his father <Gen 48:5-7) was part of the same piece of kindness. Joseph puts to shame the modern "hard-boiled" attitude toward needy and aged members of ths family In their eager and relentless pursuit c£ tame or riches, many ignore or trample upon the members of their own families. Often they are aabamed of the broken bodies, the humble apparel, th* broken or uneducated speech of their parents.
