Blessed Life Fellowship

What do you do when you get really bad results from doing the right thing?  That was the situation Joseph found himself in when he got thrown into a dungeon.  What he did next made that dungeon a springboard that catapulted him into his destiny.  If you're in your own personal prison right now, learning from Joseph and applying the lessons in this chapter of his life will get you out faster and speeding toward your destiny.  

The tsunami of sexual immorality has swept overt this nation in overwhelming fashion, and it has now affected the church almost as dramatically.  We have to fight back against this infectious, cancerous plague by making it clear what God's Word says about different forms of sexual immorality and how to overcome these besetting sins.  Using Joseph's victory over sexual temptation in Genesis 39 as our guide, we learn in this teaching practical ways to overcome sexual sins and reach our God-given potential.  

Have you ever been faced with a situation where doing the right thing might not seem like it's immediately beneficial?  What do you do?  It takes faith to do the right thing anyway.  This is one of the things that the story of Joseph teaches us.  Being faithful  wherever you find yourself out of reverence for the Lord is a mark of faith, and God honors that kind of faith expressed in diligence.  Find out in this teaching why the scriptures say that God was with Joseph, and what the results are of the Presence of the Lord.  

Jesus said in this life we would have some tribulation sometimes.  Some of the pits of life we find ourselves in are just a part of life, and some of them are of our own making, like young Joseph.  But how we respond when we are in the pit determines where our lives go from that point forward.  

The life of Joseph provides many powerful life lessons, not only regarding what to do in various situations, but also what not to do.  The first lesson we can learn from him is how to handle a call from God and how not to handle it.  Joseph was confronted with what we are calling here, The Pride Test.  Listen in to see how he did and how you can avoid making similar mistakes that could cost you dearly.  

It seems to be inherent in all humans to want to be great.  But the path to greatness is not what seems natural or obvious. Paradoxically, the road to greatness is exactly the opposite of what society might indicate.  Jesus taught us a different way to greatness that we discuss in this teaching, The Great Paradox.  

Most people are unaware of the spiritual battle waging around them everyday in the unseen world.  And the two biggest targets of the enemy forces are the church and the family.  This teaching addresses ways we can protect our spiritual lives and our families from these demonic assaults, and raise godly families in an ungodly world.  Also included here is the personal ministry at the end to several families.  

Soldiers in the military must undergo a process called, Basic Training, before they are ever put in a real combat situation.  Similarly, God's people also undergo training, and that training involves tests they must pass in order to be promoted to more significant roles in the Body of Christ.  This teaching deals with the first of seven tests every Christian must face and pass if you want to reach the next level of breakthrough.  

Problems, setbacks, and disappointments can serve an important purpose in your life...IF you respond to them properly.  People who are promoted in God's kingdom must undergo a process of proving. This teaching will help give you sense of purpose, and interpret the challenges in your life differently.
