Joseph’s Coat

GENESIS 37

Joseph was the youngest and favorite son of Jacob. His father had given him a coat of many colors. This made his eleven brothers jealous. They decided to get rid of Joseph. They sold him to merchants traveling to Egypt. To hide what they’d done, they tore Joseph’s coat and took it to Jacob. “A wild beast killed Joseph,” they said. Jacob cried for his son.

David, the Young King

1 SAMUEL 16

God was not happy with King Saul. So, He sent the prophet Samuel to Bethlehem to find a new king. Samuel went to the house of Jesse, but the king was not there. “Do you have any other sons?” Samuel asked. “Only young David. He is watching the sheep.” Samuel sent for David. God told Samuel to anoint the shepherd boy king!
