Sermon Series: God Meant It for Good — The Journey of Joseph

Message 5 – The view from here
Genesis 41 – November 2nd

After years of false starts, betrayal, and silence, Joseph’s life finally begins to shift. The dream that once seemed buried is being resurrected as he’s called out of the dungeon and into Pharaoh’s palace. In this message, The View From Here, we explore how God’s timing, wisdom, and purpose converge to redeem what looked wasted.

Joseph teaches us that promotion doesn’t come from the east or the west — it comes from God (Psalm 75:6–7). Every pit, prison, and pause was shaping a man who could carry the weight of destiny with humility and faith.

This week we’ll unpack the meaning behind Joseph’s two sons — Manasseh (“God made me forget”) and Ephraim(“God made me fruitful”) — revealing a powerful truth:

If we don’t let God redeem our past, we’ll hinder our present and miss our future.

Come discover how to see your story through redemptive lenses — to find healing from what’s behind you and fruitfulness in what’s ahead.
Because when you finally reach the ridge and look back, you’ll realize God’s hand was guiding every step of the way.
