This Can Be Your Story - Part 14
God sees the truth but waits. God saw Joseph. He saw that Joseph went through many hardships in life.
There are many people who say that they have worked all their life for their family, siblings, relatives etc. but now they are in a pit and they want to end their life. Remember this - it is not the end of your story.
God is working in your life everyday. He sees you.
In Ps. Damien’s life, there were times when he would wonder when all this will be over? He had no hope. But then he learnt to put his trust and hope in God.
You need to do the same. You need to proclaim out loud ‘God will change my situation’. The more you do it, the more you have hope and will be able to come out of the dark tunnel.
If you put your trust in God, then you would never be put to shame.
Matthew 24:35 ‘Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.’
Genesis 41:32-34 ‘The reason the dream was given to Pharaoh in two forms is that the matter has been firmly decided by God, and God will do it soon. “And now let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man and put him in charge of the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh appoint commissioners over the land to take a fifth of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance.’
The seasons in your life can change. If we look at businesses around, many that were flourishing once are now in a financial crisis.
When God blesses you, you need to be wise in handling it and always save for the future. Yes God will take care of you but you should also use the wisdom God has given you.
Proverbs 6:6-11 ‘Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.
Seasons will change in everyone’s life. But we need to use our wisdom to store up for the future. In doing so we won't have to worry when situations change.
Learn from the ants! And you will have abundance.
Genesis 41:33-36 “And now let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man and put him in charge of the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh appoint commissioners over the land to take a fifth of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance. They should collect all the food of these good years that are coming and store up the grain under the authority of Pharaoh, to be kept in the cities for food. This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the country may not be ruined by the famine.”’
Just like how the ants store up food in summer, Pharaoh appointed a wise man to store up the grains so that they would not be ruined by the famine.
