JOSEPH: THE YOUTH WITH BRIGHT FUTURE

 God bless you for taking your time to study.


TOPIC: JOSEPH: THE YOUTH WITH BRIGHT FUTURE

TEXT: GENESIS 37: 1-3

Date: SUNDAY OCTOBER 2nd

Key verse: Jeremiah 29: 11 For I know the thought that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thought of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
A careful look at the life of Joseph will show many ways in which the Lord revealed the future to him. The future of Joseph was revealed through some events, interactions and experiences in his life, which was like foretelling his future. You may notice these also in your life in a practical sense as you grow up and go through life experiences.
Genesis 37: 3. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children… and he made him a coat of many colours. Wonderful! That is another language of Joseph’s future. Anytime Joseph wore this coat, he was different from his brethren because he was the only one with a coat of many colours. His brothers were there but were not given this coat. In simple terms, Jacob, the father was saying, “Joseph, this unique cloth you have is speaking of your future. The cloth will eventually perish but the message this cloth is passing to you will abide forever.”
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. They have seen something. May be there is a communication in the spirit that you have a great destiny and they do not like it. You can see that Satan was always frustrating Joseph. He used his brethren to plan to kill him but what happened? They cast him into a pit and eventually sold him into Egypt. In Egypt, a lie came up against him and he was thrown into prison, If your life has no prospect, does the devil border about you? It is because your life has meaning, suffering is a language announcing your bright future. Jesus Christ passed through it too. In fact .the more you suffer in righteousness, the brighter your future according to God’s ordination.

Thought for the day: Suffering is a language announcing your bright future.

Song for the day: Satan you are a liar, a terrible liar, in the name of Jesus…

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 24-26; Ephesians 4

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
