‍Genesis 48:19a

• God has the power and the authority to change things up.
  The right hand is the hand of blessing and authority and should have been placed on the head of Joseph’s firstborn, Manasseh.

• God knows what He is doing.
  It’s easy to get frustrated with change, but God knows what He is doing, so we need to trust Him.

Let’s take our hands off the way things have always been, how we think they should go, and sit back and watch God do what He does. It’s always for our good and His glory, even if it doesn’t make sense at the time.

Then Jacob called together all his sons and said, “Gather around me, and I will tell you what will happen to each of you in the days to come.“
Genesis 49:1

I wonder if the sons heard each other’s blessing or if they were spoken in private. I wonder if they talk about their blessing.

Keep my hands off God’s hands and His plans. He knows what He is doing. Trust Him.
