Topic :Troubles, As Stepping Stones To Greater Heights.

Memory Verse :Genesis 45:4. Then Joseph said to them, “Please come closer.” They did, and he said, “I am your brother Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt.

Bible Reading :Genesis 45:5-7 GNB. Key Verse : v7.

Now do not be upset or blame yourselves because you sold me here. It was really God who sent me ahead of you to save people’s lives. This is only the second year of famine in the land; there will be five more years in which there will be neither ploughing nor reaping. God sent me ahead of you to rescue you in this amazing way and to make sure that you and your descendants survive.

Joseph was the 1st son of Rachel, the wife of Jacob for whom he served extra seven years out of his love for her. Joseph was loved of the father and he made a special coat of many colours for him. God had a special assignment for Joseph which he began to reveal to him through dreams eary. His brothers was very uncomfortable with his dreams which he shared openly with them and which was a pointer that he was destined tp rule over other members of his family. ““Do you think you are going to be a king and rule over us?” his brothers asked. So they hated him even more because of his dreams and because of what he said about them. Then Joseph had another dream and said to his brothers, “I had another dream, in which I saw the sun, the moon, and eleven stars bowing down to me.” He also told the dream to his father, and his father scolded him: “What kind of a dream is that? Do you think that your mother, your brothers, and I are going to come and bow down to you?”” Genesis 37:8-10.

The dreams of Joseph attracted rebuke from his father and envy from his brothers. They therefore sought for a way to stop his dream from manifesting. A day came when the brothers went to pasture their cattles and the father sent him from home to check on them. They saw that as a good opportunity to kill him so that his dreams could die with him. However their elder brother Reuben in his wisdom saved him from their hands before Judah finally suggested that they sell him to the ishmeelites as a slave boy. They on getting to Egypt, sold him to Potiphar, a captain in Pharaoh’s guard. In Potiphar’s house, God lifted him and blessed his household because of Joseph. It didn’t take time before the wife of Potiphar wanted to have him. His refusal in fear of God landed him in prison. From prison, God brought him to the palace by his intervention to interpret the dreams of Pharaoh. That singular encounter changed the course of his life and placed him on the throne in a foreign land.

His brothers got the wildest shock of their lives when the Prime Minister of Egypt who is second in command after Pharaoh, whose opulence and glory they had seen introduced himself as Joseph their brother that was sold to go and die in slavery. They witnessed his dream fulfilled and as they scampered for safety, he told them to calm down because what happened was instrumental to bringing God’s plan to pass in his life. In this season of the revelation of the goodness of God, every stone the enemy or enemies threw at you are becoming stepping stones to greater heights by the mighty mercies of God. “Early the next morning the people went out to the wild country near Tekoa. As they were starting out, Jehoshaphat addressed them with these words: “People of Judah and Jerusalem! Put your trust in the Lord your God, and you will stand firm. Believe what his prophets tell you, and you will succeed.”” 2 Chronicles 20:20.

Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus because no power can truncate your plan for my life. From today, I decree that every evil plan of the enemy against me are turning around for my uplftment and blessing. Every stone the enemy threw at me has become a stepping stone to greater heights in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : Acts 17:16-34.
