Providence, the power of God to sustain and rule all of creation down to the last molecule, is both a promise and a problem. The fact that He is near enough to hold us with His right hand is comforting; the fact that He permits pain can be confusing. In this week's message from Genesis 39, Pastor Kelly invites us to acknowledge the problem and see the magnitude of the promise.

Repeatedly we are told one truth, one life-altering, sanity-giving truth that defines Joseph's reality whether in the palace or the pit: God is with him. And that simple statement utterly transforms how we interact with our circumstances, including, as we see in Genesis 39, when they are riddled with temptation.

Providence, the power of God to sustain & rule every last molecule of His creation, is a mysterious mercy whether we consider it at a cosmic level or in our own life. Joseph's story, recorded in the end of Genesis, offers us a masterclass in beginning to understand how limitless God's power really is and how intimately He cares for every detail of this life. This week we explore the promises of providence in Genesis 37.
