Biblical Proof Number 6:
America is Joseph’s Land

Thank God for the Bible.
We need not "second guess" where the "everlasting hills" are.
Moses gives us a detailed description of Joseph’s Land in Deuteronomy 33:13-16.
America is Joseph’s Land and the choice pasture to which the Shepherd of Israel led his flock.
There can be no other. No other land fits the description; not Africa, not Europe, not Asia, not Australia, not former Russia.

Let me say a brief word about the destiny of two lads, then make mention of some historical earmarks that bear out our claim - America is Joseph’s inheritance.

Though Jacob (Israel) had 12 sons, 2 were set apart. Destined for prophetic greatness: Judah and Joseph.
"The Sceptre shall not depart from Judah…but the Birthright is Joseph’s." - Genesis 49:10, 1 Chronicles 5:2

Judah’s Sceptre and Joseph’s Birthright: two prophetic promises earmarked for the end time.
Two distinctive promises most Protestant Christians, generally speaking, know little about.

All the sceptre’s blessings, privileges, and promises pertain to Judah, from whom comes the royal family of Israel’s race.

Jesus, our blessed Messiah, is from the tribe of Judah.
Protestant Christians know about the messianic promise; it’s God’s birthright promise to Joseph we’re unfamiliar with.
The Messianic covenant was separated from the birthright, and given to Judah, the fourth son of Jacob and Leah, while the birthright fell to Joseph.
This individual separation of the Sceptre and the Birthright took place previous to the death of Jacob.

Joseph was promised the Birthright!
And what was that? Land!

Joseph, through his two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, was to become the father of many nations which were promised to the fathers of Israel.
Nations and land were promised to Joseph and his descendants.

And out of all the nations, there was one set aside to be "
choice above all others" The Americas.
Saved for the end time.
And Joseph’s descendants were to settle in Joseph’s Land and become an Ensign to all other nations.
Yes, two lads and their inheritances - Joseph and Judah - play key prophetic roles in the end time.

For one, the Lord promised Joseph that a righteous branch would come from his seed (2 Nephi 2:7).
Saints, prepare for the harvesting of that seed.

Seed that has been planted from Liberty jail to Susquehanna River, from Alabama to Africa, from Birmingham to Bermuda, from Carthage to Calcutta, from Detroit to Denmark.
Seed planted and destined to rise to prominence during the end time. Perhaps in our day.
