The Life of Joseph: Lesson Ten

What man means for evil, God can turn to good.

After their father died, Joseph told his brothers plainly what God had done.

Genesis 50:20 (KJV): But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

All things work together for good to them that love God.

Romans 8:28 (KJV): And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Joseph did not hold it over them. He fed their families and spoke kindly to them.

Genesis 50:21 (KJV): Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
