Lessons from the Life of Joseph - Week 1, Day 3 - The Gospel Truth

About this sermon

Andrew Wommack’s daily TV program: Gospel Truth To subscribe to Andrew’s email newsletter: http://www.awmi.net/youtube-subscribe/ We have begun a brand new series to share with you: Lessons from the Life of Joseph. We can learn so much from the lives of those who loved God and His Word. God even tells us in His Word that all things that happened to those in the Old Testament were written for our learning ( I Corinthians 10: 1-11 ), even to help us not make the same mistakes. Let's learn from the life of Joseph the biblical principle that the choices we make when we come under life's pressures will determine our outcome. 00:15 Joseph is one of Andrew's favorite Bible characters. God used the record of Joseph and his life to teach Andrew many principles for an abundant life. 00:30 God gave Joseph a dream and vision of his future that didn't begin to come to pass for 13 years. This parallel's Andrews life. God told Andrew he would be teaching world wide and yet it was at least 12 years and in some regards even longer before it began to come to pass. 5:18 2 Timothy 3:12 says that "all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" Walking for God is like swimming upstream but it's so worth it because the benefits are huge. 5:56 In today's culture people think of God "whatever will be will be" and Christians sadly believe the Sovereignty of God means that God treats us like a chess piece and just moves us around how ever He sees fit. This is not true and not what the Word teaches. 08:43 We can limit God in our lives. Psalm 78:41 says "they turned back and tempted God and limited the Holy One of Israel". 09:00 God will never force us to comply to His Will. We have a choice and have to decide to cooperate with God. If we don't embrace the will of God and pursue it against all opposition and all odds, you will not see it come to pass. 10:04 But be of good cheer. 3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. God has never made failure and He is on your side. 18:00 Joseph got words from God. Psalm 105:19 Until the time that His word came: the word of the Lord tried him. Until God's Word came fully to pass in Joseph's life, the Word held him and kept him faithful. 21:49 For over 10 years Andrew struggled even though God told him he would reach Millions with the Word of God. After a few years his church grew to 50 people and when a man was raised from the dead, they grew to 100. Be encouraged if we remain faithful God's desires will come to pass in our lives. ========================================­==== Andrew Wommack Ministries http://www.awmi.net/ https://www.facebook.com/AWMinistries https://twitter.com/andrewwommack https://instagram.com/andrewwommack/ https://www.pinterest.com/andrewwommack/ ========================================­==============
