Genesis 45

Summary: In our passage Joseph reveals himself to his brothers who had sold him into slavery some 22-year prior. They are shocked, and of course fearful for their sin has found them out, and they stand before Joseph who has the power to punish them to death if he so choses. But Joseph will say to them, don't be grieved. Don't be troubled. In essence he is saying, I forgive you, I love you, I don't hold anything against you; so be free in these words that I give you so that we can have a relationship, be a family again, and be one. In this study we will see what a man/woman, who walks with God, does. This is who a man/woman... who sees themselves in light of who God is….. and what and how they respond…… they respond like God.
