Blessing For Us From God In Answered Prayers

Blessings For Us From God In Answered Prayers:because of your father's God, who helps you, because of the Almighty, who blesses you with blessings of the heavens above, blessings of the deep that lies below, blessings of the breast and womb.[Gen.49:25]

The blessing of Joseph is very full. What Jacob says of him, is history as well as prophecy. Jacob reminds him of the difficulties and fiery darts of temptations he had formerly struggled through. His faith did not fail, but through his trials he bore all his burdens with firmness, and did not do anything unbecoming. All our strength for resisting temptations, and bearing afflictions, comes from God; his grace is sufficient. Joseph became the shepherd of Israel, to take care of his

father and family; also the stone of Israel, their foundation and strong support. In this, as in many other things, Joseph was a remarkable type of the Good Shepherd, and tried Corner Stone of the whole church of God. Blessings are promised to Joseph's posterity, typical of the vast and everlasting blessings which come upon the spiritual seed of Christ. Jacob blessed all his sons, but especially Joseph, to ?who was separated from his brethren. to ? Not only separated in Egypt, but, possessing

eminent dignity, and more devoted to God. Of Benjamin it is said, He shall ravin as a wolf. Jacob was guided in what he said by the Spirit of prophecy, and not by natural affection; else he would have spoken with more tenderness of his beloved son Benjamin. Concerning him he only foresees and foretells, that his posterity should be a warlike tribe, strong and daring, and that they should enrich themselves with the spoils of their enemies; that they should be active. Blessed Paul was of this

tribe, Ro 11:1; Php 3:5; he, in the morning of his day, devoured the prey as a persecutor, but in the evening divided the spoils as a preacher; he shared the blessings of Judah's Lion, and assisted in his victories. (Ge 49:28-33) The Bottom Line: When everything in our lives hath seemed like were stuck and no where else to turn at all in our lives and we have sunk so low that the only place to look is up to the God of our Father's whom we pray in all desperation in that seemly helpless lot we have faced that No help is their for us and we cried out, Family just can't help you, friends, can't because they have families and we really don't want to ask them because they have helped out. When the state assistance help agency says they can't because they are out of money so you have been all over town and some of them says we can only help you 1 time a year in getting help in resourcses that's suppose to help won't. So that was the lest leg of everything in seeking help all that's left is the Lord in prayeron our knees in pleading with him in sending help in moving those motains that hasn't budged for you. Sending his mighty warring angles in providing all provisions in one's behalh and then some times later God accomplishes all that you have asked forand yet more of an abundances then a person could ever behold in ones own eyes. You cry in rejoicing in the Lord! Prasing His Name! Worthy is the Lord of Host whom those mighty works in providing all that we have asked for has come forth before you and have provided more with eyes that has beholded in which you did not ask for had come through simply because of our Mighty, mighty Jesus Christ that brought it to us. That's what I have seen in my home. I thank Him and I share this unto You today of His matchless works. What Joy for those He chooses to bring near in His holy courts. God awaits us inside His holy temples in those past in being His servants in walking freely and are welcomed and valued before His almighty presence For our God is alway's before us ! I praise Him alway's and forever. Amen. catcmo2006
