This SHOCKING Take on Money and Success May Change Your Life Forever (Parsha Power: Mikeitz)
12/24/24 • 17 min
Join us in this thought-provoking exploration of life's purpose as we draw inspiration from Parshas Mikeitz and the significance of the word "Vayehi" in the Torah. Listen as we discuss Pharaoh's dreams and their role as a wake-up call, prompting us to consider the inevitable end of life and the ultimate judgment before the heavenly tribunal. We emphasize the importance of self-reflection on our life's accomplishments and how we might respond to the Almighty about our deeds. Through a touching personal story of a friend's conversion process and a compelling parable on measuring one's life by Torah study and selfless dedication, we encourage listeners to ponder the meaningfulness of their existence and the actions they take in fulfilling their life's purpose.
We also explore the concept of living by the word of Hashem, recognizing Him as the ultimate provider of sustenance. Acknowledging that our skills and labor are not the true sources of our support, we reflect on the divine hand guiding every aspect of our lives. As we navigate the journey of our temporary existence, the discussion highlights the importance of embracing our mission to accomplish, act, and strive for a closer relationship with God. This episode invites you to embrace the understanding that our success and livelihood are decreed by God, urging us to focus on nurturing a deep connection with the divine throughout our lifetime.

Deciphering Divine Timing and Miracles: Lessons from Yosef's Life (Parsha In-Focus: Mikeitz)
Join us as we explore the profound lessons from the Parsha of Mikeitz and the story of Yosef in Egypt in our Parsha Review Podcast. This compelling chapter will urge you to read and embrace the divine messages in the Torah. We dissect Yosef's acceptance of his extended prison time, viewing it as part of his life's mission, an example of Hashem's divine plan. Listen closely as we scrutinize the verses where Pharaoh calls for Yosef, and the swift transition from prisoner to standing before Pharaoh. We share the profound belief that Hashem has complete control over the timing of events in our lives, and that often, we only recognize the miracles years later. You're encouraged to reflect on your own life experiences and see how events that initially appeared negative, turned out to be blessings in disguise.
We then dive into the importance of constantly acknowledging and expressing gratitude for the good that Hashem brings into our lives. We discuss our desire to understand Hashem's miracles deeper and believe that everything He does is for the good. We highlight Hashem's orchestration and emphasize recognizing His hand in everything, drawing from this week's Parsha as an example. We end the chapter with a blessing for a meaningful Shabbos and the ability to always recognize Hashem's goodness in our lives. Tune in to this enlightening episode and deepen your understanding of Hashem's miracles and His divine timing.
This episode (Ep 6.10) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Mikeitz is dedicated in Honor of our dear friend Moshe Butler & our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!
