This sermon teaches that just as we guard our valuables, we must intentionally guard our hearts because everything in our lives flows from them. Using Joseph’s story, it shows that a guarded heart allows God to use, form, and ultimately heal us—even through betrayal, hardship, and unfair seasons. The message calls believers to enter the new year with vigilance, forgiveness, and spiritual discipline, trusting that God can turn what was meant for harm into good.
