PRAYER - "God Hath Found Out The Iniquity Of Thy Servants"
Joseph ordered his brothers' money to be secretly placed into the bags of grain AND his silver cup to be hidden in Benjamin's sack. He ordered his servants to pursue them as they returned to Canaan. His purpose was to test his brothers' loyalty to their baby brother, Benjamin. It was time for them to have a heart-cleansing. The whole ordeal forced them to confess that God had found them out. Don't make God chase you down to get a confession.
Genesis 44:16 - "Judah said, ...how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants."
PRINCIPAL - "Ephron The Hittite - Donor Of Sarah's Grave"
Sarah died at the age of 127. Isaac was about 36 when his mother died. It was a traumatic event for Abraham. He owned no land to bury Sarah in. "Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her." He told the local sons of Heth that he was a stranger among them and begged a place to bury his wife in the Cave of Machpelah.
Genesis 23:10-11 - "Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of Heth, ...the field give I thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it thee; ...bury thy dead."
PRINCIPLE - "They Abused Joseph, But Had To Defend Benjamin"
Joseph played some serious mind-games with his brothers. He framed them for crimes they did not commit - with no intention of prosecuting them. He only wanted to teach them a long-overdue lesson. They had hated and betrayed him, so Joseph forced them to defend Benjamin.
Genesis 44:20-23 - "We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, ...if he should leave his father, his father would die. ...I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad ...and let the lad go up with his brethren."
PROPHECY - "Thou Art Even As Pharaoh"
Way back yonder, in Joseph's dream, he saw his brethren bowing down to him. "We were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf." Genesis 37:7. Many years later in Egypt, Joseph had the mastery over his brothers and could easily have had them destroyed. As humiliated aliens before Pharaoh, they begged for mercy. Prophecy fulfilled.
Genesis 44:18 - "Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh my lord, ...let not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou art even as Pharaoh."

Here’s another OMBS
PRAYER - "Is Any Thing Too Hard For The LORD?"
You simply cannot afford to forget that God created all of this from NOTHING! His infinite, invisible, eternal Spirit pre-dates everything in the universe. Stars. Galaxies. Planets. Plants. Animals. Humans. Fish. Water. Light. Flowers. Sights and sounds, tastes and smells. Miracles beyond our ability to even catalog. So the next time you have a need that seems difficult to impossible, cast your doubts away. Jesus said, "Whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son," John 14:13.
Genesis 18:14 - "Is any thing too hard for the LORD?"
PRINCIPAL - "The Root And Offspring Of David"
Jesus baffled the scribes with this question, "How say the scribes that Christ is the Son of David? For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool. David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son?" Mark 12:35-37. As GOD, Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I AM." As man, He was born hundreds of years AFTER Abraham and David. One person, two natures: Divine and human.
Revelation 22:16 - "I Jesus ...am the root and the offspring of David."
PRINCIPLE - "The Right To Enter In Through The Gates Into The City"
The New Jerusalem, City built foursquare, is surrounded by a wall that is between 250-300 feet high. It has three gates on each of its four walls (East, North, South and West). An angel stands watch at each gate. The gates never close. But you will never enter the gates of that city if you do not keep the commandments of Jesus Christ. These are sobering words that could cost you everything. Make sure you know what the commandments are.
Revelation 22:14 - "Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may ...enter in through the gates into the city."
PROPHECY - "God Shall Add Plagues If You Add To These Prophecies"
God has always been viciously opposed to anyone who dared to speak in His name when He had not given them anything to say. "Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy ...out of their own hearts, ...Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!" Ezekiel 13:2-3.
Revelation 22:18 - "I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book."
