Genesis 42

Read chapter

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come to You in prayer, just as Joseph’s brothers came to him seeking help in their time of need. Like Joseph, we acknowledge that You are the one who orchestrates all things for our good.

As we reflect on the story of Joseph and his brothers in Genesis 42, we recognize the themes of forgiveness, reconciliation, and the fulfillment of Your divine plan. We ask that You help us to forgive those who have wronged us, just as Joseph forgave his brothers. Grant us the strength to let go of grudges and bitterness, and to seek reconciliation with those who have hurt us.

We also pray for the wisdom to recognize Your divine plan in our lives, even in times of hardship and confusion. Help us to trust in Your sovereignty and to have faith that You are working all things together for good.

May the example of Joseph and his brothers remind us of the importance of family, forgiveness, and faith in Your plan. Guide us in our relationships, and lead us to walk in Your ways.

In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen.
