Let's get started with today's teaching years Alan we gloss over verses like this one in the Bible, Genesis 41, 46 rewrite on a not because Joseph was 30 years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt is 3030 years and consisted being hated by his brothers abuse in the worst way hated and abused constantly, emotionally and verbally abused by them put down wanted.

They wanted to kill him just by thread Joseph hang onto his life got thrown into a pit sold as a slave. I just used them a little bit of money off of took his road that they detested put blood on it, carried it to their father and let their father believe that Joseph was dad devoured by wild animal.

Meanwhile, Joe's was cured in Egypt, put into slavery in the household of Potiphar and then first wife accused him falsely thrown in jail unjustly incarcerated until he is 30 years old. It looks like his life is basically over complete tragedy.

He had suffered 30 years what the definition of what he experienced in this world was trouble, after 30 years, he became second in all of Egypt because God views providentially.

Joseph prophetic ability to interpret dreams and next thing you know he's running the country is used by God to save the world from famine because they save up grain for seven years and during that time of plenty when they're saving up. He has a son and the son he names Manasseh because it comes from the Hebrew words. It means to forget and Joseph says because I forgotten all my troubles all the sudden he was acting Prime Minister of Egypt and had been blessed with a baby boy and it was so good. That was as if the bad ever happened like a mother who has a long labor and travail and then the baby is born and is almost like you forgotten the tribunal you don't forget that it happened you just forget it relative to the blessedness that you now experience you have experience as if something really bad gets eclipsed by something really good. It's as if the bad hadn't really happened. It becomes no longer the preoccupation of your life. Some years ago our son while was at that. I was at Baylor.

They had a great football team and we got to go to a football game in 2014, when Baylor was right number five in the nation in their plane. TCU was right number nine is a top 10 battle and we were there watching it and that we thought Baylor my chance to go away this year it all in and be in the playoffs and have the and and they got down by by three touchdowns and my wife and left.

She wandering the concourse diamond grumbling with other people in the stands about how the seasons ruin and there's 11 minutes left in the game and Baylor down by 21 points a game, though, by some miracle Baylor scores 24 unanswered points in the last 11 minutes and wins the game 61 to 58. It lives on in the folklore of Baylor. Everybody you know came rushing down the field. Now they have ever done this before. They were going to. We went down there.

Second, bears onto the field and SR faces that's our faith now 3 1/2 quarters of that game.

We were getting beaten and was miserable.

But in in the scoreboard said Baylor wants and were down there Sikkim Arizona right. The final score eclipsed the rest of the game forgot all her troubles because the victory was at hand. Yeah yeah 30 years I've been traumatized, abused, beaten, forgotten, and then admit she is now here I am baby boy Jesus is forgotten on what would happen if you could just start living like I forgotten all my troubles God can heal memories God can heal memory such that the, of yesterday is not defining how you live today you can live as though you've never been hurt, you can love as though you've never been hated. You can live from this day for all hallelujah may God make you like Manasseh, from this day forward you not defined by the pastor defined by what God is doing today and he has second son there during the season. The plant is named him Ephraim. I think this represents 1/3 gift of the even Manasseh blessing is frowned means twice fruitful. I just want to show you little bit Hebrew here because this really kinda beautiful. It should be translated right. He if you transliterate to get directly from this IEM is the suffix that makes this word in Hebrew dual and it's and it's in its noun form. So, in English we got singular nouns like you individually and we got plural nouns like yell you and your that's the proper way singular and plural that Is Way in Hebrew. They got singular and plural, but there also is dual form, i.e. I even as the dual form with the suffix in Hebrew is the I name it means to have it so one day in Hebrew is gnome but there's a word for two days you only so is the word for fruitfulness in 19 means twice or do so frame means doubly fruitful twice for part of this was.

It was a second son and fruitful everything I Think I Think That This Is Prefiguring What It Means to Live in Christ It Means to Be Twice As Fruitful As You Ever Imagined. You Possibly Could Be. It Means to Be Twice As Fruitful in Crisis You Ever Would Be without Him It Means to Buy in Christ like a Branch on a Vine and As You Abide in Him You Bear Much Fruit. Blessing Your Life Is Going to This Year to Be Twice Fruitful. Just Open Your Heart and Receive That If You've Had Some Joy, a Fruit of the Spirit. Let Me Bless You and Say, May God Make You like a Frame Twice Joint Choices Joyfully.

If You Know What It Is to Experience Love May Experience It Twice As Much. May 2020 1B Twice As Much a Blessing As You Ever Could Have Imagined, and I Think God Wants Us to Bear Fruit, and Wants Us to Know the Sweet Savor of That Fruit, and so He Said Make Sure That You Speak of Your Children That They Become like Different. And Then There Is the Greatest Mystery of This Blessing, Which Is the Fourth Gift of That Blessing, Which I Think the Picture of Favor and It Has To Do with the Strange Way in Which Jacob Administered the Blessing. If You've Been around Here Much at All. You Know I Love Jake of His Story and I It Occupies A Lot Of the Book of Genesis and It Occupies All Whole Lot of the Attention of the Old Testament Because Jacob's Name Was Changed to Israel Which Becomes the Name for the Nation of the People of God and We Are in Christ Are Engrafted into Israel and Jacob Show Someone a Most Important Figures That Ever Lived, and yet He Was a Scoundrel. He Was a Connive for Any Was a Striver. He Was the Second Born of Two Boys, Two Twins, His Older Brother Esau Was Born First and Jacob Was Born Holding onto His Heels like You Try to Pull Himself in the First Place Because in That Culture. He Knew That the Firstborn Son Got so Much Attention and Jacob Was the Second and It Just Created a Complex and Him Where He Felt Unblessed and like He Had to Do Something to Get Himself Blessed. Always Striving to Always Try to Find a Way to Get Himself Favored and It Just Shows up over and over. His Life Is the Definition of His Life. So When They're Young When They Esau Is Really Hungry and Jacobs Got This Nice Bowl of Soup and and Esau Comes in and Goes Got Me Have Some of That Tomato Bisque Yellow and and Jacobs like No It's All the Web Please I'm Famished over Here and and Jacobs.

I Will You Sell Me Your Birthright. I Give You Little Bit of My Desk and and so He Sells His Birthright Just Treats Them out Later It Comes to His Ultimate Climax When Their Father Isaac Is Old and Blind and It Comes This Moment Where Every Every Firstborn Child Anticipates the Greatest Moments of His Life Would Be for His Father to Speak the Full and and and Comprehensive Blessing over the Firstborn's Life in That Impartation. Most Scholars Agree There Is a Releasing of a Double Portion of the Inheritance for the Firstborn Is Going to Manage the Family Farm around the Family Business. He Needs More Is A Lot Of Blessing Lot Rests on the Shoulders and Every Son Looks Forward to That. It Comes That Big Moment, and Jacob. Still, Something Just Awful He Pretends to Be Esau Dresses up like His Brother.

So Him Smell I Can Feel like I'm Goes in and Tricks Their Father Isaac into Speaking the Blessing over Jacob Instead. Esau, When Old-Line Isaac Realizes He Blessed the Wrong Son, You Think You Just Take the Words Back and Say Oh Nevermind. I'll Just Bless Esau That's Not the Way It Is Not a God Created the World by Speaking Words Words Power in the Words of Blessing and Come Forth Out Of His Mouth, and It Could Not Be Taken Back in Stuff Back in. One Thing I Learned about Blessing When I Saw That Story Was Power Blessing Is a Revocable, I Was Always That That I Do Believe That over My Children This Bully. I Believe It over Your Life by Speak a Blessing of Airline Your Blessed and Isaac Said When Esau Came in Crime Isaac Said Blessed Your Brother and Indeed He Will Be Blessed Right Will Have More Teaching Moment from Today's Important Series Will Be Nice to Such a Blessing Instead of the Curses Is Aware of This Special Offer from Alan My Ministries Will Help Coincide with the Release of Pastor Alan's New Book Having a Blast.

This Is the Guy That Worked for Seven Years to Get the Woman That He Loved This Is a Man Who's Afraid His Brother Was Going to Kill and He Left His Whole Life like This. I Assume Jacob Said That I'm Not Blessed. I Got to Do Something to Make Myself Blessed As We Live This Life and Now Is Nearing Is That Joseph Is Brought These Boys and Jacob Try to Blossom and He Doesn't.

Very Unusual Thing, Knowing Full Well That All Hebrew Custom Mandated That the Strong Blessing Symbolized by the Right Hand Should Go on to the Firstborn Son Jacob Does Something Unimaginable so Viciously. Joseph Brings These Two Boys, Manasseh, the Older It from the Younger, and He Because Jacob's Getting Old and and Eight. We Carefully Brings Them up. Joseph Put Manasseh under Jacob's Right Hand Firstborn under the Right Hand but See from the Second Born under the Left. Okay You Can Blessing Daddy and Jacob Crosses His Arms and Takes the Right Hand, the Strong Firstborn Blessing and Puts It on the It Is so Stunning That Joseph Very Respectful of His Father but He Tries to Correct It. Verse 17, Genesis 4817 When Joseph Saw That His Father Laid His Right Hand on the Head of a Friend and Displeased, and He Took His Father's Hand to Move It from Ephraim's Head to Manassas and Jacobs Crossed His Hands and Joseph Being Respectful, but He Takes His Head No Daddy Can Let You Know You Little Bit Old That You Will Be Blind but I Get Doing It Wrong. This One Is the Firstborn Moves It Back and Jacob Take His Cross No Jacob Said He Said Verse 19. His Father Refused and Said I Know My Son, I Know I Know What I'm Doing, He Shall Become the People He Also Shall Be Great.

Nevertheless, His Younger Brother Shall Be Greater That He and His Old Age Is Grave Moment of His Life. Jacob Is Showing Us That He Finally Got It Going Back to Look at Verse 11. You Can See Some of This Israel Is Jacob. He Said to Joseph, I Never Expected to See Her Face, and Now God Let Me See Your Offspring to Life like a Surprise Blessing, Not a Surprise Curse and He Says in Verse 15 He Blessed Joseph and He Said the God before My Fathers Abraham and Isaac.

While the God Who Is Been My Shepherd All My Lifelong to This Date, We Say Is I Always Thought I Was on Now As I Look Back over My Life.

I Realize He's Been Shepherding Me the Whole Way That God's Been There Every Step of the Way I Spent A Lot Of Time with Bereaved Families. 33 This Week I'm Telling You for Sure This I've Seen for Sure This Secret of Joy at the End of Life Is to Be Able to Look Back over Your Life and Say God Shepherding Me I Messed up Here. I Would've Maybe Done It Different Here.

Look at This God I Realize Has Been Taking Care Of God's Been Blessed Me God Is Been with Me. I'm Never Been Alone, Sheep, and His Pasture and He's Been Guiding Me along the Way and Therefore I'm Satisfied I'm Saying Is That Jacob, Who Lived by Law and Shame and Moralism and Trickery and Strife at the End of His Life. He Finally Got It and You Realize That's Not What It's about. It's about Grace. It's about God Giving Unmerited Favor.

It Is about Grace to the Undeserving so Took His Hand off the Deserving One Crossed over to the One Who Didn't Deserve It. He Said No, My Son, I Know What I'm Doing Because This Is What Life with God Is All about. It's about Grace New Testament Says of the Older the Old Consists of Shadows Pointing to the Reality That Is Found in Christ. So If You See a Passover Lamb in the Old Testament, You Can Count on. This Is a Passover Lamb in the New and That Passover Lamb Is and You See Jacob Crosses and You Can Be Sure This Somehow Is Pointing Us in Jesus As a Whole. Books about Them.

Here's What Happened. The Father Had Firstborn.

The Bible Called Jesus the Firstborn of All Creation. He Was, He Just Loved People He Served. Everywhere He Went.

He Healed the Sick, He Delivered the Press. He Fed the Hungry, and yet They Hated Him and Put Him on a Cross by Own Decision Son Willfully Obeying the Father's Will Is Not My Years, Father Be Done on That Cross, the Firstborn of All Creation. The Perfect Sinless One Only Deserve All That Jesus Deserved Was the Right Hand of the Father's Blessing on Him but Instead He Hung There and You Knew No Sin Became Arsenic Took Our Shame and There While He Bore Our Shame. He Felt What It Was like to Be Separated from God Is My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me What He Was Experiencing Was Absolutely Breathtaking from Our Perspective, What God Did in the Heavenly's in Those Moments Was He Took His Hands and across Them and He Took His Right Hand off of the Sun Who Deserved His Blessing and Instead Let Jesus Take the Cards for Us All, and Extended the Right Hand of Blessing to Those Who Didn't Deserve into the Second Ephraim to You and to Me, for Anyone Who Would Receive It. What It Means Is That We Receive the Strong Right Hand of God's Blessing.

Maybe the Angels Were of the Same Father Father.

This Is the Firstborn. He Is One Deserve. This Is a Godsend. I Know What I'm Doing Because He Planted out from the Very Moment That Adam and Eve and Said He Knew This Moment Would Come That He Had a Plan Financial Plan Plan Where He Would Show His Justice and His Mercy Had a Plan Whereby You Plan about Where You Have All Your Sins Forgiven You Would Live According to Recording All You Had a Plan about What You Would Make You Twice His Approval Came to Make You As Ephraim and Manasseh, so I Bless You As We Start the New Year to Say God Make You like and Adopted One Secure in His Love like Manasseh Live from This Day for Forget the past.

I Got to Do Some so Good Right Now You Forget Everything That Happened.

There Was Ever Bad in Your Life and Make You Twice As Fruitful You Ever Dreamt of.
