April 26, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 4 - 6:00 PM Session Wayne Jones delivers a sermon analyzing the last nine chapters of Genesis, focusing on the story of Joseph and Jacob.

The lecture identifies six key activities of God demonstrated in these chapters: wrapping up previous promises, providing for those in need, healing damaged hearts, restoring broken families, rewarding past actions, and writing the next chapter of His divine plan. These actions are presented as timeless principles, applicable to the lives of believers today, encouraging them to see God as the central character in their own stories and to live out His purpose.
