We conclude our study of Joseph's life by examining his final request to have his bones carried to the Promised Land—a powerful testament of faith that waited 400 years for fulfillment.
This quick episode covers:
• Joseph died at 110 years old but never lost sight of God's promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
• His request to carry his bones to Canaan demonstrated faith that transcended his lifetime
• Moses faithfully fulfilled Joseph's request during the Exodus (Exodus 13:19)
• Joseph's life teaches us about forgiveness, remembering who God is, and waiting patiently
• Like a seed planted in darkness, our waiting seasons are when God is often most at work
• Joseph's story parallels Jesus' redemption story—both used what was intended for harm to bring salvation
• God's promises are true and accessible, but we must know them through studying His Word
• Faith requires patience, diligence and endurance during seasons of waiting
