Do not go beyond God's grace -Genesis44

Gen44 Ps105:1-22
Today's psalm goes hand in hand with Gen.
At the conference Joyce Meyer talked about not to go beyond the annointing or grace that's been given.
Joseph in this chapter was tempted to go beyond his calling.
Ps105:21-22 "He made him lord of his house and ruler over all his possessions, to imprison his princed at will..."
Joseph's life calling is to save Jacob's family in a time of famine. God has prepared and enabled him for this task. But when in a position of honor, he nearly stepped out of this grace and acted on a personal level.
Thankfully, Judah brought him back into perspective and reminded him of his (God given)right role to play in the family.
