Calvary Temple

In Genesis 48, the Holy Spirit directed Joseph to take his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim with him to visit their grandfather, Jacob, one last time before his death. Although tradition would dictate that Manasseh, the elder son, would receive the blessing of Jacob and the greater portion of the inheritance, God had a different plan. Thank God, that we too, as believers in Christ, though we were also undeserving of the blessing of sonship and the inheritance of eternal life, God also had a better plan for us, see Hebrews 11:40. He adopted us into his family and gave us the blessing and birthright in Christ Jesus that we didn’t deserve!
