TOPIC: THE LANGUAGE OF FORETELLING YOUR FUTURE
TEXT: Genesis 37: 5–11
KEY VERSE: Genesis 37:8  And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

The future of Joseph was revealed in some kinds of events, interactions and experiences in his life, which I term The Language Foretelling His Future. You will notice these also in your life in practical sense as you grow up and go through life experiences.

1. The Language of Special Love. Jacob loved Joseph (Genesis 37:3). Jacob’s special love for Joseph was a communication that something valuable was in him. By divine inspiration, Jacob was saying to Joseph, “I have received information that you will become somebody.”
2. Coat of Many Colours (Genesis 37:3). That is another language of Joseph’s future. Anytime Joseph wore this coat, he was different from his brethren. Jacob, the father was saying, “Joseph, this unique cloth you have is speaking of your future. It is a language of the future. The cloth will eventually perish, but the message this cloth is passing to you will abide forever.”
3. The Language of Undeserved Hatred (Genesis 37: 4). The hatred you experience from your brethren and from others, for reasons you cannot tell, and things you are not responsible for, is a message. Their hatred for you is speaking of your future, telling you that something great lies ahead for you. If you were nobody, they will not waste their time on you. Whether it is the language of love by your loved ones, or of hatred by your enemies, you should understand that it is a pronouncement of God about your bright future.
4. The Language of Special Dreams (Genesis 37:5-11). The future was involved in these dreams. Have you ever dreamt about your future? But sometimes Satan too can give you a dream spelling a dark future for you. Reject that dream and cancel it in Jesus name. Amen. The dream that God has given you is the one you shall pray and claim. Joseph’s future was described to him in a dream, in the language that he did not understand. Joseph was a small boy of 17 years old or maybe even less! God was telling this small boy of a great future. Do not underrate yourself when God is telling you about your future. Do not look at who you are now, “for the just shall live by faith.” Trust in God’s word alone. He that promised shall bring it to fulfilment. Amen.

Thought for the day: Understand the language of destiny and key into it.
Song for the day: Open my eyes O Lord
Bible reading for the day:
Genesis 42-43; Matthew 13:33-58

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
