Insight:
When they had to go back to Egypt, Israel insists on giving the money back that was left in the sacks. as well as double the money that they took last time. It’s important to be honest when oversight is made. When that cashier gives you too much change, as soon as you realize it you need to make it right, even though it may be an oversight, once you recognize it, it becomes deceit on your part if you do nothing about it. James 4:17 says Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
Question:
How much time had passed between the two voyages to Egypt?
Conviction:
Canaan was experiencing an awful famine. As they ran out of corn, which was obviously one of their main sources of nutrition, they had to return to Egypt even though they still had ‘treats’ to take with them to Egypt as gifts, Oftentimes we focus more on pleasures than necessity.
Standard:
If you stand to profit from another’s oversight, It’s your obligation to make it right.
Pastor Snow: Insight: I noticed the deep love Joseph still had for his brothers, even though they had caused much pain in his life.
I cannot think of anyone in our L.I.T Crew that is starved for love from their family. Count your blessing, and thank God that He has placed you around so many people that love you!
God loves you!
Pastor Snow: Insight: It is amazing to see Joseph’s love for his brothers after all they had done to him.
I do not know of any of the L.I.T. Crew who do not experience this kind of love from their family. Count your blessings and thank the Lord for your family’s love!
Hello L.I.T. Crew! How is everyone doing?
