"Laying our hearts and hurts on the altar, acknowledging God's constant presence even in our darkest hours. Despite setbacks and suffering, there's a call to move past the past, allowing God to work and bring glory out of life's mess. With a Joseph anointing, the focus is on transformation, not destruction."

Spirit of Adoption
August 4, 2023 • Steven Shelley
The Spirit of adoption can only be understood by understanding ancient Middle Eastern customs. Even a blood son had to be “adopted” before he could transact his father’s business. Therefore the Scripture is not talking about acceptance into God’s family, but the transferring of His authority to His fully manifested sons.
