Our Scripture reading today is Genesis 45:9-10.
 
Verse 9, "Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not:"
 
Joseph had a message for his father, Jacob.  He was alive and God had arranged everything for him and his family to be together.  Can you imagine what it must have been like when Jacob heard that his beloved son was alive?  Many years had gone by and far as Jacob knew Joseph was dead and he would never see him in this world again.  This was about to change!  Jacob would soon see Joseph once again.
 
I am thankful today that our Saviour is alive and He is preparing a place for all of the Father's children.  John 14:3, "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."  Jesus will be there and Jesus is Who makes Heaven Heaven.  What a day that will be when our Saviour we shall see.  We will soon see our Saviour face to face.  Hallelujah!
