Even
Joseph's bones found rest... after all those tumultuous years!
Genesis
50
25
And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will SURELY
visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
26 So Joseph died, being
an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin
in Egypt.
Exodus
13
18
But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea:
and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.
19 And
Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children
of Israel, saying, God will SURELY visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones
away hence with you.
Joshua
24
32
And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt,
buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of
Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the
inheritance of the children of Joseph.
The
sure and lively hope of Joseph in the great faithfulness of His covenant LORD!
Oh LORD, give me a measure of such sure and lively hope!
What
else would the LORD God not do to guarantee that each of His redeemed people
shall enter into the rest of their eternal inheritance!
