Goshen isn't total healing; but, it will do till we can be nourished for ever in the King's presence!

Genesis 45:11, And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.

Goshen gives us a preview of our heavenly Home Coming; O what a day that will be, when Jesus and our loved ones we shall see!

Genesis 46:29, And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and presented himself unto him; and he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

Goshen gives us a glimpse of just how it's going to be when we get to heaven and the Son introduces us to the Father!

Genesis 47:1, Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.

Goshen provides protection; but, nothing like the eternal security we will enjoy in our heavenly home for ever!

Closing hallelujah: One day we shall leave our tents in Goshen to live in our heavenly home, where we shall be with God, to be separated again no more for ever!

Revelation chapter 22 verses 3 through 5, And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: and they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever!
