God wants to bring increase and promotion into His sons and daughters lives.
HISTORY - HIS STORY
The main history we need to learn and know of is Jesus' story.
The jews knows their heritage and inheritance.
What God did for His man and woman in those days, He can do it for us through Jesus Christ.
Joseph was his father's (Jacob) pet; his favourite child.
Jacob makes a special colourful coat for Joseph.
Joseph was sold as a slave by his brothers.
Slave usually feels ashamed, inferior, not worthy, and not good enough.
Joseph had someone who was with Him who is not on this earth; which is LORD.
Joseph was a PROSPEROUS man.
God described Joseph as a prosperous man when he had nothing.
We are known as a prosperous man because we have Jesus Christ.
We are not prosperous if we don't have the LORD.
Don't see our work as our ultimate hope.
Anything from this world does not determine our prosperity.
