It was by faith that Isaac promised blessings for the future to his sons, Jacob and Esau. It was by faith that Jacob, when he was old and dying, blessed each of Joseph\u2019s sons and bowed in worship as he leaned on his staff. It was by faith that Joseph, when he was about to die, said confidently that the people of Israel would leave Egypt. He even commanded them to take his bones with them when they left.\nHebrews 11:20\u202d-\u202c22 NLT\n\u201cSoon I will die,\u201d Joseph told his brothers, \u201cbut God will surely come to help you and lead you out of this land of Egypt. He will bring you back to the land he solemnly promised to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.\u201d Then Joseph made the sons of Israel swear an oath, and he said, \u201cWhen God comes to help you and lead you back, you must take my bones with you.\u201d\nGenesis 50:24\u202d-\u202c25 NLT\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/support
