Joseph Saw God in the Room!
By Thomas Brooks0GEN 39:9PSA 139:7PRO 15:3Thomas Brooks emphasizes the omnipresence of God, illustrating that sin committed in His sight is a profound affront to His holiness. He draws parallels between the actions of Ahasuerus and the awareness of God's ever-watchful eye, urging believers to recognize that no sin can be hidden from Him.

The sermon calls for a deep awareness of God's presence to deter wicked intentions and encourages believers to live in a manner that honors His omniscience. Ultimately, Brooks urges the congregation to keep their focus on God, who sees all things at all times.
