Reseña del libro "Delighting in a Life of Triumph: A Study on the Life of Joseph (Genesis 37-50) (en Inglés)"
What does it look like to live a life of triumph...and is it even possible? Broken relationships, despairing situations, and unrealized dreams - sometimes life gets complicated and confusing as people and circumstances let us down. All the while, the enemy of our souls is right there whispering lies of defeat; telling us we've been abandoned by God and our situation is hopeless. The whispers sometimes tell us the life of blessing and promise, written on the pages of God's Word, applies to everyone else but us. How our hearts long for the triumphant life; a life that triumphs over circumstances, emotions, and relationships. Is it even possible?The life of Joseph shows us that it is! Esteemed and highly favored by Jacob, his father, Joseph is envied and betrayed by his brothers who devise a plan to get rid of him. With God-given dreams of prosperity and a heart set on God, Joseph travels through deep valleys of slavery, imprisonment, and accusations at the hands of others. Yet, Joseph's life speaks of a lifefull of triumph where circumstances don't define him but, rather, God's love does.Joseph's faith takes him to mountaintops where God sovereignly uses his life to save the very ones who sought evil against him, and to preserve the entire Jewish nation for the future birth of Jesus, the Messiah. Joseph's life exemplifies a life triumphing in God's grace, forgiveness, redemption, and sovereignty. Ultimately, our lives can triumph in God too, when we know that no matter what evil is seen around us or is happening to us, God's greater plan and purpose will prevail as He weaves together the details of our lives for His glory and our good. He only asks us to trust Him in the process and walk obediently with Him.Start this nine week verse-by-verse study through Genesis 37-50 as you dig into the details of Joseph's life. You'll go from Canaan to Egypt and then back to the Promise Land triumphing in God along the way.
