" Nevermind about your belongings, because the best of all Egypt will be yours" (Genesis 45:20).
Joseph instructed his brothers to inform their father to totally disregard his own possessions and come to Egypt.
It was ridiculous to worry about some old, beat up tents and provisions when Joseph was ruler of Egypt.
Huge cartloads of provision and clothing follow the brothers to Israel.
There was no more need for stinginess or financial worry.
So often we claim to our few tiny resources when, in reality, the wealth of heaven belongs to us!
One little boy was willing to give up his five pieces of bread and two fish to the master.
He is" lost" was no loss, for the Lord gave him back his lunch, +12 baskets to take home!
Those small objects given in obedience were the key that unlocked the" wheatfields" and" oceans" of Israel.
Provision is normal when we realize the position our" relative" occupies.
Jesus has been placed at the right hand of God, not just Pharaoh!
How much more should we be confident to leave behind our few belongings owner?
