Genesis 50:15–21

This week, Pastor James Ray Taylor reminds us that forgiveness isn’t weakness — it’s worship. Joseph’s story in Genesis 50:15–21 teaches us how to let go of offense, trust God’s plan, and bless those who once hurt us.

Key Points: • Joseph wept — release the pain so God can heal it. • You are not God — surrender judgment and let Him handle justice. • God can redeem anything — what was meant for evil, He will use for good. • True forgiveness reaches back — bless the same people you once cried over. Forgiveness Prayer: “Lord, thank You for forgiving me through Jesus Christ. Help me forgive others, even when I’m hurt. Give me a heart that releases offense and lives beyond where people left me. Amen.”
