BIBLE TEXT: Genesis 47:1-12

[1]Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.

[2]And he took some of his brethren, even five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh.

[3]And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.

[4]They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.

[5]And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee:

[6]The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.

[7]And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

[8]And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old art thou?

[9]And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.

[10]And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.

[11]And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

[12]And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.

And what can make a tiny seed and flowers bloom?

What can make me want to share my toy with you?

A. Then Joseph went and told Pharaoh and said “My father and my brothers, their flocks and herds, and all that they possess have come from Canaan and are indeed in the land of Goshen.

B. Joseph took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.

C. Pharaoh asked of their occupation and they told him, they and their father are shepherds and have come to dwell in the land because there is famine in Canaan and no pasture

for their flocks. They needed a solution to the problem of their family so they came to Joseph in Egypt. You too need solution to your problem of sin. Jesus Christ the solution to the problem of sin. He is the perfect son of God who died for you so you can have your sin forgiven Hebrew 9:22b.

D. Pharaoh said to Joseph “Your father and your brothers have come to you. The land of Egypt is before you; let them dwell in the best land of Goshen”.

CLIMAX: And Joseph situated his father and his brothers in the best of the land, in the land of Ramesses as Pharaoh had commanded.

Then Joseph provided his father, his brothers and all his father’s household with bread according to the numbers of their families.

CHALLENGE: Joseph used his God’s blessings in his life in the land of Egypt to bless his family by relocating his father and brothers from Canaan land to Egypt in the time of famine. God also want you to develop your gift, knowledge and talent to bless your family and others Proverbs 18:16.

You can always drop a little love into the hearts of those on your way, and they will know that God has loved them that day.

INVITATION: Receive Jesus as you Lord and Saviour, then your blessings can manifest and be used to bless your family. Romans 10:13.
