Genesis 46:31 - 47:8 

The occupation of the Israelites was shepherding and was regarded as an abomination to the Egyptians. In a typical situation of such a large family migrating to another country, they would have been focused on acceptance into a new community and because abomination was detestable they would have most likely considered doing something else to be able to fit in. But God had called them to stand out and Joseph saw this as an opportunity instead, and to be able to settle his family in the best of the land Goshen. 

Further into the story, we see that the Israelites profited from the famine because as the famine became very severe, the Egyptians had to sell their livestock for food in one whole year to Pharaoh - thereby increasing their capacity as shepherds. 

𝙅𝙤𝙡𝙖𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙨 is a short clip intended to grow and equip us in our trust walk with God. The current focus is on life's seasons. Life is in seasons - so it is important that we lean in and learn from the Holy Spirit. I am grateful that every episode is inspired by the Holy Spirit. I encourage you to learn with me.
