The headlines are enough to make the heart palpitate with fear: global economic collapse, climate change, skyrocketing unemployment, and worldwide uncertainty. The world faced these calamities once before. It happened in ancient times when Joseph was elevated to the right hand of power. He preserved the covenant people of God by transporting them to a place exempted from the world’s deteriorating conditions. That place was called Goshen. The epic story of divine preservation recorded in Genesis is a picture of the power of the Lord Jesus, our Heavenly Joseph, sustaining and protecting His covenant people in these unparalleled times of global distress. The Goshen Factor probes the reality of transforming the believer’s surroundings into a dimension of blessing in the midst of a cursed world. Goshen was a famine-free zone for Jacob, a plague-free zone for the Hebrews, and a representation of the abundant life where no plague can come nigh our dwelling.
