Placed by Joe

The famine predicted reached Jacobs family
They heard there is food in Egypt
So Jacob sent ten sons to buy
But it was time for the family to reconnect
Joseph had become lord in Egypt
The dreams of a teen is now reality
The brothers paid homage to the one they sold
They acknowledged the one once hated
 
Joseph had the entire Egypt at his disposal
He could have located them anywhere
He placed them in Goshen…
Saying I want you close to me
 
Closeness to your source is wisdom in famine
Have your wall continually before God
Time to have Him smell the incense of your worship
Don’t refrain in famine; draw nearer…
 
Goshen prospered even when Egypt lacked
They had access, they were helped and favoured
They were placed near their help
The one that new the entire land sorted them
 
You don’t know like God
He knows the end from the start
Wisdom wants you to embrace him
Folly tells you to keep your distance
 
Time to keep his words before you and not just news
You are not of this world, don’t forget
Your sustenance in famine depends on your closeness
God is our unending source, not the exchange rate
 
When others say there’s casting down; you are going up
When many are lacking; you have more and to spare
If Israel had not moved to Egypt they would have perished
Stay close; God has a Goshen for you
 
For there *Goshen will I nourish thee; for there are yet five years
of famine, lest you and your household come to poverty Gen 45:11

More than enough...

I am sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency Esther the orphan was sufficient to be a Queen Joseph the prisoner; was enough to be Prime Minister ...
