NOT EVERBODY WILL BE PART OF GOD’S PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE
TEXT:
Habakkuk 2: 1-3
KEY
VERSE: Genesis 37:20 Come now therefore,
and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil
beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
Genesis
37: 8b Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over
us?
What
Joseph’s brethren said here was indeed a prophecy. “Are you saying that you are
going to be greater than us?” Thou sayest it, Amen. When Pilate asked Jesus,
“Art Thou the King of the Jews?” Jesus answered, “Thou sayest.” What your mouth says is it! Joseph’s father said, “My
son, what are you saying? Do you mean that your mother, your brethren and I,
shall come under you?” Joseph had an explanation for Jacob, his father.
“Father, you have said it. It is what God is saying, it is not what I am
saying. That’s what God is saying about me. I don’t know how it will be done. I
didn’t manufacture it. The dream came to me. That revelation came to me. I am
not responsible, so don’t envy me for it. Don’t hate me for it, it is a divine
plan. He that created me has a plan for my life. Let nobody hate me for it. Let
nobody envy me for it. Let nobody challenge me for it. He spoke it. He took the
initiative. He knows how.” That’s the spirit! Go forward Joseph! You will see
God at work in your life to actualize His word given to you as a dream.
You must disregard the envy and jealousy of men and move on in life to
fulfil destiny. Men will put stumbling block on your way to make you fall, but
if you keep reminding yourself of what God has said concerning your future you
will not be afraid or discouraged. He who has promised is faithful and shall
bring it to pass. That stumbling block will become the stepping stone to
greater height. There may seem to be some delay, but it is only temporary. Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an
appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry,
wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Unknown to
Joseph’s brothers, by selling him into slavery, they facilitated the fulfilment
of prophecy contrary to their plan of killing his dream. I pray that you too
will fulfill destiny in Jesus name.
Thought for the day: To progress in life, you must differentiate between
destiny helpers and destiny destroyers.
Song for the day: Christian,
seek not yet repose
