today on Summit Life with J.D. Greer.

How would your life change if you really believe that in everything God was with you,

that he'd been with you, for Joseph, it meant that wherever he was, wherever he was,

he would just serve God.

Wherever he was, he applied himself.

And he said, what's it look like to serve God in this moment, in this place where I am?

Yeah. in this moment, in this place where I am. Thanks for joining us again this week for Summit Life with Pastor J.D. Greer.

As always, I'm your host, Molly Vitovich, and I am excited to jump into God's Word with you.

You know, most of us are at least somewhat familiar with the popular Old Testament story of Joseph

and his multicolored coat. In fact, it's been described as amazing and technicolor.

But today, Pastor Jady is explaining that this is more than just an interesting musical

storyline.

From being sold into slavery by his brothers, thrown into prison, and then rising to power and being reunited with his family, Joseph's life is a beautiful picture of God's sovereign

plan, how no matter what things might look like on the outside, God is at work doing what

he thinks is best.

So let's rejoin Pastor J.D. in Genesis chapter 50 as we reflect together on the life of Joseph.

There are a couple of ways that you can interpret Joseph's life. First and most importantly, you can and should interpret it as a picture,

as a premonition of Jesus. Of course, unlike Joseph, Jesus was not just sold into slavery. He was put to

death. But like Joseph, he would be raised from that pit to sit onto the highest throne of the

land. And like Joseph, instead of exacting vengeance from that throne, he would be raised from that pit to sit onto the highest throne of the land. And like Joseph, instead of exacting vengeance from that throne, he would use his exalted

position to forgive and save his brothers.

And like Joseph, he would weave tears of joy when we were reconciled to him.
