SETTLING IN GOSHEN -ANGLICAN DEVOTION
READ: Genesis 47:1-6 (NKJV)
- Then Joseph went and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, their flocks and their herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Canaan; and indeed they [are] in the land of Goshen.”
- And he took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.
- Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What [is] your occupation?” And they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants [are] shepherds, both we [and] also our fathers.”
- And they said to Pharaoh, “We have come to dwell in the land, because your servants have no pasture for their flocks, for the famine [is] severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”
- Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
- “The land of Egypt [is] before you. Have your father and brothers dwell in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know [any] competent men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock.”
THE MESSAGE:
Notice from verse 4 that the Israelites intended to live in Goshen “for a while” to survive the remaining 5 years of famine (see also Genesis 45: 6). However, they spent 430 years to fulfil God’s purpose (Genesis 15:13; Exodus 12: 40-41). Goshen was among the best of Egypt, was well watered; suitable for livestock farming, and away from the native Egyptians (Genesis 46: 32-34). It also became a place of refuge and deliverance from God’s wrath (Exodus 9: 26; 10: 23; 12: 23, 30). In the same way, Christ is our refuge today, anyone who puts his trust in Him shall not be put to shame (1 Peter 2: 6).
Moving and settling Jacob’s family in Goshen required elaborate preparations. First, Jacob sent Judah ahead to point the way (Genesis 46: 28). Then Joseph made at least three visits to Pharaoh to obtain the required approval, namely: Joseph went alone, then with 5 of his brothers, then with Jacob his father (verses 1, 2, 7). This is in addition to Pharaoh’s earlier invitation in Genesis 45: 16- 19). Joseph did not just assume that his relatives were welcome considering that he was next in command to Pharaoh. Let us learn to follow all due processes in obtaining our rights and privileges from the authorities.
PRAYER: O Lord, make our land a Goshen today, Amen.
