The Favored
Son
~The Revelation Of The Favored Son ... The Tribe Of Joseph Is About To
Rise!~
Danny Steyne
Throughout
the world, something unprecedented is happening, the dead are being raised
in more frequency than I have witnessed in my lifetime. In fact, it seems
that with believers in the Western World, there is a pre- occupation that
"resurrection power" must now be released in the Western World in
fulfillment of the promises of Jesus to do the "greater works".
Something else has also been happening, supernaturally, and beyond the
norm. Believers have been gathering together in homes, churches,
communities, and conferences spanning the denominational and non-
denominational churches without desire for specific recognition.
The favored son is being revealed. The Tribe of Joseph is beginning to
stand up!
Genesis 37:3 tells us that Joseph was loved more than any of his other
sons and because of this "favoritism" he was given a robe of many colors.
That robe was far more than just a multi-colored robe, it represented far
more than favoritism, it represented Joseph’s authority over each of his
brothers. Each tribe’s had "color" in their robes, specific color that
represented them and their uniqueness, Joseph’s robe included each of
their colors and all their unique nesses, Joseph’s robe gave him authority
beyond the parameters of his own tribe, into the tribes of his brothers.
Even his father was unwittingly declaring prophetically that his dreams of
having authority over his family would one day come about. Joseph was
being set apart from his brethren, he was being set up not only to a
divine purpose, but also to a divine difficulty that would facilitate the
making of a man of character who could handle the anointing and authority
of God flowing through his life.
(In contrast, men like Samson who had powerful anointing, but lacked
wisdom and character, end their days fulfilling their destiny only in
death.)
Joseph’s life was full of difficulty, but he never wavered from his
purpose and his heart remained free from bitterness. His life was filled
with hardship and choices of character and integrity that brought him
repeatedly to the place where only God could vindicate. I am sure that
God’s timetable was often much longer than Joseph’s, but he allowed no
acrimony in his life. The sign of a Joseph Generation is that they will
not allow pain and hardship in anyway to taint their love for God and his
purposes for them in the earth. They truly will become "better" not
"bitter".
Joseph’s willingness to endure persecution and hardship and even the loss
of his family resulted in the favor again of his father, he received a
double portion of blessing that came back to his family. The blessing that
he received far outweighed all the other blessings that were given that
day through Israel. As the people of God left Egypt the "Tribe of Joseph"
ceases to exist under his name, and the tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim
rise up as mighty tribes of the sons of Joseph. Their allotted portions in
the promised land are as significant as any of the other tribes, not only
that, but when they ask Joshua for more, he gives it to them. Favor
surrounded the life of Joseph, but the early years seemed to be years
where there was no favor.
Today there is a generation rising,. A generation that has walked through
the pain and difficulty of carrying promises without evidence of
fulfillment anywhere in sight. Repeatedly they are called upon to serve
and they serve well, but it so often seems that just when they reach the
point where destiny is going to be fulfilled, they are brought back to a
place of obscurity and hardship and their message is forgotten. But that
is where Joseph’s are made! And there is still a tribe of Joseph that must
arise!
Those that passage through those times with joy and without bitterness are
those who will reach the place of promise and destiny and form the "Tribe
of Joseph"!
The Anointing Is In The Bones
Prior to Joseph’s death he asks that his bones be carried back to the land
of Promise. This was more than simply a nice burial gesture, the Bible
speaks of bones in a unique way.
"Once while some Israelites were burying a man, suddenly they saw a band
of raiders; so they threw the man's body into Elisha's tomb. When the body
touched Elisha's bones, the man came to life and stood up on his feet." ~2
Kings 13:21
Joseph understood that something of God rested on his life. He had no
ability other than that which God gave him, and all the hardship and
difficulty had allowed for a measure of God in his life that he wanted to
leave as an inheritance for his people. Joseph wanted the anointing of His
life (the favor & wisdom & wealth of God) to be taken with the people of
Israel to the Land of Promise (even today much of the worlds wealth is
held by the Jewish people) , the anointing followed him!
The ancients believed that "power" and "anointing" rested in the bones.
Enemies would burn, crush & break bones to prevent "power" and "anointing"
from continuing on beyond the life of their adversary.
The bones of the righteous were to be buried with respect and dignity, the
bones of the wicked were to be burned, crushed, given to dogs and
eradicated from the earth.
The Valley Of Dry Bones
Generations pass, the bones of Joseph, the bones of the righteous , the
bones of those who have carried the heart after God, with no bitterness,
those with powerful anointing, lay before the prophet Ezekiel. The nation
is in a shambles, is there hope anymore? He looks at the bones scattered
before him, the desire is for that anointing to once again fill the earth.
The Spirit whispers, "prophesy son of man,. prophesy!" The bones come
together, the sinews and muscles and flesh form around the bones, but
resurrection power has not yet happened.
"Prophesy to the breath!!!! Let resurrection power come!"
And as he did, the vast army arose. The Army of Joel 2, the Army of the
Lord ,. The Tribe of Joseph,. The generation of Resurrection Power.
We are living in the time where BREATH is being poured out , RESSURECTION
POWER,. The BREATH OF GOD,
God has been pulling things together prophetically, but now the four winds
are beginning to blow by the Spirit on the corpse that surrounds the
anointing, the anointing of the ages ,. The tribe of Joseph is about to
rise,.
This generation is the Joseph Generation,. The Anointed Generation. The
one that wears the colors of many tribes, and many nations ,.
These days, right now, are the days where God is awakening that generation
with the Breath of Life , it is time to prophesy to the corpse, LIVE,
BREATHE , Ressurect.
Now is the season where the Tribe of Joseph will arise, not in one
denomination, not in one group or movement, but spanning the globe,
"Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and
say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four
winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.'" So I
prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life
and stood up on their feet--a vast army. ~ Ezekiel 37:9-10
