THURSDAY
Jacob has twelve sons. From one of Jacob’s twelve sons Jesus will come. We’d expect this to be Reuben (first born), but he is disqualified when he sleeps with his father’s concubine. Simeon (second born) and Levi (third born) are disqualified by their intense anger and violence, seeking revenge for their sister against Shechem.
Genesis 33-35 – Listen/read and journal.
FRIDAY
Yesterday we read about the sins of Jacob’s three oldest sons. Today’s reading shows us why Judah (fourth born son) would also seem to be disqualified: he hatches a plan to sell his brother, his sons act wickedly, and he treats his daughter-in-law deceitfully. But Jesus will come from Judah’s line. God’s grace prevails. Next week we’ll discover Judah’s transformation.
Genesis 36-38 – Listen/read and journal.
Song: Still in Control – Sold as a slave, Joseph’s life didn’t look anything like his dreams. But God had a plan and was still in control.
SATURDAY
Watch this video and pray for Egypt.
