How To Overcome Poor Role Models

Joseph, the son of Jacob Jacob deceived his father Isaac (Gen. 27), and played favorites with his wives (Gen. 29:30) and his children (37:3). Joseph’s brothers hated him (Gen. 37:4-5, 11), conspired to kill him (v. 18), and deceived their father (vs ). Despite these role models… – Joseph had a great work ethic (39:2-4, 21-23; 41:46- 49) – abstained from sin (39:7-12) – refused to take vengeance (45:3-15; 50:15-21)

Hezekiah His father was Ahaz, a wicked king (2 Chron. 28:1-4). Hezekiah was a good king (29:2); his work contrasted that of his father. – Ahaz ransacked the Temple and closed its doors (28:24-25); Hezekiah opened the Temple and made repairs (29:3). – Ahaz sought the gods of Damascus (28:23-25); Hezekiah took his problems to God in prayer (2 Kings 19:14-20).

Josiah His grandfather, Manasseh, was an evil king (2 Chron. 33:1-9). His father, Amon, was worse (2 Chron. 33:23). Josiah, however, did what was right in the sight of the Lord (2 Chron. 34:2).

Josiah Purged the land of idolatry (2 Chron. 34:4-5). Repaired the Temple (v. 8). Led nation in repentance when book of law was discovered (vs ). Renewed Israel’s covenant with God (vs ). Observed the Passover (2 Chron. 35).

Timothy His father was a gentile (Acts 16:1-2), while his mother and grandmother were faithful to the Lord (2 Tim. 1:5). Timothy went on to become a great servant of the Lord. – 1 Tim. 1:2; 1 Cor. 4:17, 16:10; Phil. 2:20-22

How Young People Can Overcome Poor Role Models Joseph had a strong faith in God – Genesis 39:9, 45:5-9 Hezekiah served God to the best of his ability – 2 Chron. 31:21; Eccl. 9:10; 2 Kings 18:5-6 Josiah sought the Lord in his youth – 2 Chron. 34:2-3, Eccl. 11:9-12:1 Timothy made God’s word his foundation – 2 Tim. 1:5, 3:14-15; Matt. 7:24-25
