TWO RIGHTS CAN MAKE A WRONG!
     _{^{Genesis 37:1-20}}

• Giftedness is not an excuse for bad behavior.   
      _{^{Genesis 37:1-11     Mark 9:33-37     John 13:35     1 Corinthians 13:1-3}}

We can know God’s plan, have the right motives, and still be far from the will of God.

• A godly man can still make God look bad.
     _{^{Genesis 37:12-20, 1 Samuel 15:10-11}}

It does no good to have spiritual maturity without relational maturity.

THREE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT GOD’S PLAN!
     _{^{Genesis 37:20-36}}

• Only you can derail God’s dream for you.
     _{^{Genesis 37:20     Psalms 1:1-6     John 14:23     Galatians 4:8-11     Hebrews 10:35-39}}


• Worrying about what the crowd thinks leads to
     terrible decisions.
      _{^{Genesis 37:21-30     1 Samuel 15:24     1 Corinthians 15:33}}


• Focusing on short-term gain leads to terrible decisions.
      _{^{Genesis 37:26-27}}
