Gen. 43-45

It must have been a moving scene when Joseph revealed his true identity to his brothers. Their response was probably mixed … fear and relief. However, God had processed him to the extent that he was ready to love and not seek revenge.

When Christ’s true identity will be revealed to the world, there will be a mixed response. Those of us who are Christians will be joyous and relieved … our Deliverer has come. Those who have rejected Him and mocked Him and reviled Him will fear for their lives.

For us to live with this day of reconciliation in our minds will help us endure the trials and resistance we now experience. We have read the last chapter. We win.
