Genesis 39 verse eight he refused and said why but hold me my master no concern about anything in the house and he's put everything that he had my chart.

He is not greater than his house and I am not as he kept back anything from you because you're his wife how can I do this great wickedness and sin against God. To see this because I'm never realizing reading this years ago, the capacity to resist temptation is not built great self will, but on great self worth what Joseph was saying is that God has blessed me in this household, as a slave.

How can I do such a thing dishonor God and dishonor my mask you you would expect that Joseph would be able to rationalize and say well I'm a slave better in this my will given any pleasure that comes along the way. Thought his brothers came back to look at look at the mind is healed whole mind Joseph.

Genesis 45 verse five when he was reunited with his brother's providential story made in verse five now not be distressed is a sad or angry with yourselves, he said to the brothers because you sold me here for God sent me before you to preserve life and her safety. He kissed all his brothers, and went up on and after that his brothers talk with them and Genesis 50. Famously, verse 20 is for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good to bring it about that many people should be Alive as they are today, so do not fear. I will provide you and your little one.

Thus, he comforted them and he spoke kindly to so Joseph has this grace working in his life where he does not have a brain wired toward seeing the troubles of his past, and then in the midst of having them promoted in Egypt and seeing God's hand at work. Joseph is married and he has his firstborn son any names in my NASA because it means forgot God has made me to forget all of my trauma and instead focus on the blessing.

That's here today and that's why I'm blessing you, that you may be as you live your life like you can you live from now on.

The secret of living. From now on let me give you three will elaborating on these future weeks. I think that it begins with a new belief, and that is that you can approach life as new. Each day, instead of cumulative's is exceedingly important for all emotional healing for your energy moving forward for the sense of hope and expectancy to take God at his word when he says things like, I'm giving you a hope and a future. To believe that the old is gone, the newest, to accept the promises of God's word that his mercy is new every morning to believe what Jesus says about being mindful of the blessings of the day and be not anxious about tomorrow. All of this hinges on how you view your life so many times I counseled prey was who is exhausted on a particular part of their journey may be seeking to see improvements in their marriage election ship or maybe seeking to move closer to what they believe is their vocational destiny maybe trying to grow and advance in their victory over a besetting sin. Whatever it might be progress and their counseling and pray what I see is maybe I've been counseling praying with them and I've known over a period of a year or two or more where they were and where they are now and I'm sitting look at going where you were and where you are now.

You move down the road you progress but because urban setbacks along the way and valleys along the way. And now they're facing another disappointment.

It feels as though there just if you can live your life in such a way that you realize from now on is where I'm living and what is happened before is not something that is accumulated to score against me then you're free and you're energized so I played primarily to support the life golf and tennis play tennis overlap and golf and tennis in terms of scoring just couldn't be any more different because golf score is cumulative. This is the thing that is so rigid about golf is that if you come out on the first hole and you make 10 on a par four. You're already six over par if you try to shoot for working your way to make six birdies to get back to where you start you can't say what I might have about hold them white score clean start afresh on hole number two say we got back in the front and you start on the front nine but it is a was a new nine will is not really a your score is accumulated so you have all and that's why it's so frustrating to have a manhole look at you like everyone around and in some ways, have this hard to find your way back in that way and to play a game and you might play terrible you my servant." Everyone lose the game is over. That game is over and you start a new game and what you did in the other game that hurt you because I gains over the next game is more wonderful is that you play a number of sets it's either two out of three oh cents or 3/5 cents is your plan. Whoever wins the first two out of three sets of two out of the three lose the first that the match is not over and over and now you're starting a fresh set and you can win the next day the next day when the mass and what you did not matter whether you lost the other set and I think that what God is trying to say is life with Jesus Christ is much more like tennis and not like all is not cumulative is held against you in one so sweet about the gospel is that forgiveness is that whatever is happened in the past God will completely let go of it. Whatever sin that you live whatever mistakes you made yesterday. Whatever mistakes whatever sin you had in your life yesterday you preoccupy with that one is live from now on and what it means. Also done against you in whatever offenses you have suffered. God wants you to live as you have not experienced it. Except for what you learn from it.

You live from this moment on, why not cumulative when it comes to the grace of God instead is new every day is a well okay it's a new game is a new moment from now.

We are happy to see Misty thanks from Alan Wright Ministries, seven 877-544-4860 877-544-4861 come to our website pastoralan.org days teaching is also is is that we need a new ministry that I think that every Christian needs to wake into God's presence in every memory and every member there's an approach to ministry has been called a manual approach, which is the focus on God's presence with us in every moment, and this is one of the ways in which we minister in the healing of whole where you can make an appointment and sit down with a ministry couple for an hour or so and experience a deep much deeper type of ministry that we are able to do just after church on Sunday, we are little reducing how much work schedule is right now, but it's always available is just the ministry recipient just be invited to become more attuned to the presence of God, now and in the past and this is a mystery we can't explain but God is outside of time. We don't understand eternity, but eternity is not like a long period of time is different and so I think that God is already in your future and I think God is in your past that whatever moment. This is why God can still minister even in the midst of something that we experience is our path and this this this is very hard to get to complicated with this, but is very hard.

Wrap your mind around this. But as Thompson has said in his book the anatomy of the soul in a real sense your brain does not have a pass in the future. But just this moment and what is doing is your brain's membrane past of its is remembering those in this moment and so as I was talking earlier that simple illustration of a two euros bill. The milk and then with that associated shame shame can be healed because the fact of the matter is that God was right there with you and God bless shame into your over spilling Jesus was right there loving but so what if you have a ministry encounter where an anointed environment you're able, in the spirit to go back see God when you have seen them before and hear from talking to some of our ministry team members. What and that we don't we keep confidential all of the ministry, so I don't know any specifics, but this is happened more than one occasion, or someone receiving ministry experience rejection early in their life and had instantly interpreted that as God wasn't with but in the ministry session so there saw Jesus there actually loving and as one person put it, found out through a revelation of the Lord that actually the rejection distancing their experience in that relationship.

They realize God was there protecting child from further by the disconnect so you can have your things. You can have your memories healed. When you get the correct narrative associated with what you actually because how you remember your past is determining how you got a as if you forgotten the trouble part of it in your remembering. So we need a new believer when you ministry and we need a new focus because what was essentially Daniel Gretzky was saying is that he wasn't paying attention to kindness is such a powerful principal that you cultivate the capacity to pay attention to every blessing, then that's what mine is focused on what you magnify what you become good at seeing this is what God told us over and over again.

Not all his benefits. Remember remember remember remember what the Lord is done for you when you go through a hard time God said I want to remember.

I was there with you, and I delivered you out either with a powerful outstretched right you, he said into the land they live in houses that you did not build on the land that you did not you're prospering. Remember the Lord well remember remember remember and get all the benefits will because every grace and kindness in your life is from the Lord's love is the indicator of his inclination towards you and it becomes the framework of the thinking of the soldiers kindness one little candle flickering in the dark story of Joseph is interesting because he doesn't have these glaring flaws like the biblical characters we see is maybe because God is really wanting to paint a portrait on the landscape of history. Forecast the coming of the real Joseph so similar Bible says Jesus that he came into his own his own received. Like Joseph, Jesus was hated by his own brothers, not his biological brothers, but hated by those most religious leaders of the Jews, but instead they hated him and Joseph had a multicolored coat that his father given them. Jesus didn't have a little coat, but he had a mantle of authority yet a mantle of anointing that was upon him, and the more that anointing showed, the more they hated him and wanted to strip from so much so that when he went to the cross.

They were game for his tunic and wanted to pull away from Jesus was abuse. He was hated he was assaulted. He was sold for a few pieces of silver and he went into the pit put into it.

There was a massive difference between Joseph and Jesus had volunteered with Joseph.

It wasn't his father's will. But Jesus came by the set for purpose of God for the redemption of the world to suffer ridicule and hatred and death at the hands of those died upon the cross so that anyone who is in Christ anyone who's in Christ would be completely forgiven sources of the past and this gives the city supernaturally to any Christian to forgive is not excuse evil doesn't happen to forgive so that your life is not occupied by the harm.

That's what it means to live as that's what it means to live from what a picture golf nearly dead 13-year-old boy dock who is experiencing arguably the greatest atrocity in history at the hands of evil men, and he has 1/2 of a rotten potato at his feet past the story that he tells the boy thinks about it every day and names his multibillion-dollar company, how much more so we who are in Christ have the opportunity to think every day of our lives about the gift of God in Jesus Christ, who was not half rotten thrown at her feet, but was sadness and perfect infinite worth. How much more we who in Christ can come to realize we are blessed with every spiritual blessing in any given fresh grace every moment from now.
