Acts of God: Faithful in Blessing
Remaining faithful to God during difficult times is often challenging, but what does our faithfulness to God look like when life is going well? Could it be that even in the midst of life’s blessings, we find it challenging to remain faithful to God?
Acts of God: Faithful Through Adversity
Everyone will experience adversity in life. But the true test of the life of a Christ-follower is whether they will persevere through the adversity, or let it overcome them. Joseph’s life had plenty of adversity, but he shows us true character by how he dealt with it.
Acts of God: Faithful Under Temptation
Temptation can bring a special kind of pain and suffering. Sometimes we suffer because we give in and face the consequences of our sins. And sometimes we resist the temptation, but things are still difficult and we don’t always get the results we would like. Joseph is an example to us of how to stay faithful in the face of temptation, even when the blessings of doing so are not immediate.
Acts of God: Faithful Despite Betrayal
Many of us have experienced the pain of a dysfunctional upbringing, the betrayal of family or close friends, or the disappointment of unhealthy influences from our childhood. The example of Joseph helps us to understand how to be faithful to God despite those painful experiences.
