Post date: Sep 11, 2019 8:52:27 PM
Your day of rejoicing, of fulfillment, of good reward, and of glory is coming before men; your set time is approaching and that moment will not be missed or shifted for any reason. It is certain that you will not follow Christ Jesus without having victory and without receiving rewards; you will not go through the test of faith in Him in vain; hardship does not and will not last in your life forever, false accusations and unknown fear will not destroy you. Irrespective of what Satan is up to and doing in your life, he will fail and God will take glory in you and in your situation. You do not fully know what God had prepared for you in life and even in that situation and what He is preparing you for until He takes you to the place He had destined and presents you before the audience that will He had chosen to bring to pass His plans for your life. Joseph never thought that prison will be his last place of suffering humiliations and shame, but God made it be so.
Joseph thought prison was the worst place for him to be not knowing God was preparing him in there for something bigger and better according to His purpose. God will not take you through what will not glorify His name and fulfill His purpose. Hold your peace, trust His words and in all things and situations, follow His words, follow Christ Jesus and you will not miss His glory.
Joseph was not stunned by the dreams of Pharaoh neither was he stunned by his interpretation. What stunned him was what Pharaoh said thereafter.
This is what Pharaoh said thereafter; “This seemed like a very good idea to the eyes of Pharaoh and all his officers agreed. And the king asked his servants, can we find a better man than Joseph to take this job? God’s spirit is truly in him. So the king said to Joseph, God has shown you all this. There is no one as wise and understanding and discerning as you are, so I will put you in charge of my palace and house. All the people will obey your orders, and only in terms of the throne, I will be greater than you. Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, look, I have put you in charge of all the land of Egypt. Then the king took off from his own finger his ring with the royal seal on it his signet ring; a form of identification, and he put it on Joseph’s finger. He gave Joseph fine linen clothes to wear, and he put a gold chain around Joseph’s neck, all symbols of authority. The king had Joseph ride in the second royal chariot, and people walked ahead of his chariot calling, bow down. By doing these things, the king put Joseph in charge of all of Egypt. The king said to him, I am the king, and I say that no one in all the land of Egypt may lift a hand or a foot without your permission. The king gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-Paneah showing acceptance of him. He also gave Joseph a wife named Asenath, who was the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On worship of the sun. So Joseph traveled through all the land of Egypt. Joseph was thirty years old when he began serving the king of Egypt. And he left the king’s court and traveled through all the land of Egypt.” Genesis 41:37-47. Fulling what God had shown him his two dreams
God did not prepare Joseph when he became the second in command to Pharaoh or when he stood before Pharaoh but God had prepared him long before that moment. There is something in you that God will bring out soon, something will define you and defend you and promote you. God will not allow your life to be a waste, He has a plan and s purpose and He will do it.
“When you are brought into the synagogues before the leaders and other powerful people, don’t worry about how to defend yourself or what to say. At that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you ·must. Luke 12:11-12
The God who gave Joseph a dream defended him, the God who defended Joseph released him from the prison, the God who released Joseph fulfilled him just as He had promised. He will do yours as He did that of Joseph. Prayer Request Click here
