Read the Bible with Me Today? Try Genesis 48

First, ask God to see something you can apply to your life.

Then, read Genesis 48.

Then, write down something you can apply to your life.

Then, read what I wrote:

- Historical — Jacob blesses his two grandsons (via Joseph) before he dies and places the younger (Ephraim) before the elder (Manasseh).

- Doctrinal — Throughout the Bible, God blesses the second over the first (which is counter to most cultures).

- Inspirational — I would like to pass on my relationship with God and blessing to my grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
