Providence in Pain – Genesis 42–45 | A God of His WordAugust 10, 2025 | Steel City ChurchWhat if the pain you’re experiencing isn’t punishment—but providence?In this powerful message from Genesis 42–45, we reach the emotional turning point in Joseph’s story—where famine, guilt, family trauma, and long-buried sins all collide. But through it all, God’s providence isn’t about comfort or prosperity…it’s about redemption.Joseph’s rise to power wasn’t the end of the story. It was just the beginning of God’s plan to restore His promise through a broken family. As the brothers come face-to-face with the one they betrayed, we see how God uses desperation to expose need, confrontation to spark transformation, and even evil to accomplish salvation.This message is a tender but challenging reminder:God’s providence doesn’t always feel good, but it is always for our good—and for the good of the world He came to save.In this message, you’ll learn:🔥 Why God’s providence isn’t about personal prosperity💔 How desperation, guilt, and suffering can become vehicles of grace🔁 How Joseph’s story echoes the redemptive suffering of Jesus🌎 That God’s ultimate goal isn’t our comfort—but eternal salvationCome not just for relief. Come for redemption. Come for grace.📖 Scripture: Genesis 42–45🎙 Speaker: Chris Richards🕊 Church: Steel City Church📌 Series: A God of His Word
