The Joseph Family
The Joseph Family
We are grateful to the Lord for being part of the great family of God, saved by the grace of God manifested in our precious Savior Jesus Christ.
"In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace." (Eph.1:7).
The Lord has set us apart for His service since the beginning of the time that my wife and I became a family. Certainly, this was planned by God before we were born. We have received from God the promise to become a house of prayer, comfort, and encouragement for many.
We intercede and we pray for: the sick, the needy, countries, governments, and ministries, etc ... ... We try, by the grace of God, to encourage some outreach ministries in third-world countries, particularly in Haiti.
God invites us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Pe. 3:18), so we spend much of our time to study the Word of God, taking time to go deeper in knowing Him and understanding His Will more and more.
We have as mandate to encourage families to pray with their children and train them to know the Lord from an early age; maintaining in the house an atmosphere of the joy of the Lord.
We spend time with young people, touching questions which are related to their interest as youth, and see together what the Bible says.
We greatly value the ministry of music. We understand how powerful music is and the message it carries, its influence on the soul, on life, and on the mind; how it affects standards, morals, character, and lifestyles of the young. Therefore, we encourage to make room in the house for music that can build, not destroy: music that can bring people closer to God; praising, worshipping, rejoicing, encouraging, all in the Lord.
"And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord."(Eph. 5:18, 19).
The Lord has blessed us with six children who love Jesus and they love music;
they have started singing more seriously as a group since 2007 and have become "The Joseph Family Praise & Worship". We thank God for them. But it is all about Jesus.
"Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him." (Psalm 126:5).
"Redeeming the time, because the days are evil." (Eph. 5:16)
"For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister." (Heb.6:10).
Finally, do not forget that: "For, it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends." (2 Cor. 10 : 18) Remember that Jesus always loves you.
