In this episode, Hunter delves into the story of Jacob and Esau, and how Esau's appetite for the blessing changed after they experienced the famine with their father, Issac. Seeing Issac blessed through difficult times may have just been the impetus for Esau to pursue the blessing so passionately, even though it was too late.

Interestingly, Joseph's story builds on this important aspect of his father's and uncle's stories. He demonstrates how commitment to covenantal responsibility, diligence, and perseverance in tough times opens the door for exponential blessing. The famine is what brought things full circle and revealed the blessing that was on his life the entire time.

Famines aren't all bad. God can use them for great good! Favor is often found in the famine.
