DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  GENESIS 50:18-20


(18)  And his brethren also went and fell down before his face;  and  they said,  Behold,  we be thy servants.
(19)  And Joseph said unto them,  Fear not:  for am I in the place of God?
(20)  But as for you,  ye thought evil against me;  but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.


GOD IS GOD!


Brethren, when we read the story of Joseph and his brothers, we wonder how mysterious the ways of our Father is, to accomplish his works among his children;  if we have received his promises, but are still waiting for fulfillment;  let us not doubt his ways of fulfillment, our Father is currently working all things together to bring his covenants to fruition for you and me:  let us have greater faith in him!

Case in point,  in the book of Genesis chapter 15:13,  our Father said to Abram, "Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;";  at the time, Abram had no children; however, throughout the years, our Father worked miraculously to fulfill his covenant to Abraham through his great grandson;  Joseph was well favored by his father Jacob; we all know the story;  in book of Genesis chapter 37 verse 7; Joseph had a dream and told his brothers, but that dream was the beginning of his troubled life; at times, when we dream dreams or receive spiritual messages from our Father, it maybe unwise on our parts to relate them to other people; however, if the words are from our Father, it will manifest, no one can interrupt his works: also, we speak things into existence;  therefore, if we can declare and decree good dreams and spiritual messages with our mouths, believe it;  it shall be so!;  in this case, Joseph was excited on what was shown to him, and shared his dreams with his siblings; which was the beginning of his troubles.

In the book of Genesis chapter 37 verse 9; Joseph dreamed yet another dream, told it to his father and brothers; but this time around the father rebuked him but his brothers hated him than before for his dreams and for what he told them; at times, we wonder why people of this world have hatred for Christian believers to points of persecutions and martyrdom;  the answer maybe that they know the future of Christian believers' inheritances in the faith of his righteousness or our Father revealed to them, what miracles, signs and wonders are to be perform through their lives and they would like to derail, kill them first before their dreams could come into fruition;  today, if our Father had given us his promises, whether through dreams, visions or spiritual messages; let us know for certain that nothing can stop our covenanted dreams from coming to fruition so far as Jesus Christ is concern, he will fight our battles, grant us victories, protect our lives, and fulfill all his promises so we can give him all glory for evermore;  therefore, if we have received promises from our Father, let us not worry about how those promises will come into fruition, but have greater faith in his righteousness, trust and believe in his words, pray and wait patiently for him, that Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior will not fail his believers, but working all things together for good, for those who are called according to his purposes.

Fruits of thoughts, though Jacob rebuke Joseph's second dream, he believed and carefully waited for its fulfillment;  therefore, no matter what enemy forces will do to hinder our dreams and promises of our Father, if those dreams are from our Father, and he gave us his words, there is no evil works of our enemies that can stop its fulfillment;  however, promises can be delayed, if we are not in tune with the process, to obey the promptings, counsels and teachings of the Holy Spirit; regardless, if it is in the will of our Father for his own purposes, he will work all things out for his glory forevermore.

Praise be to our Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior forevermore!;  in book of Genesis chapter 42, verse 6; the long awaited dream number one came to fruition,  for Joseph, son of Jacob (Israel) became the governor over the land of Egypt, for, Pharaoh gave him charge over the affairs of the entire land of Egypt, not only that, but also, his brothers came and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth;  in his second dream, Genesis 37:9;  Joseph observed the sun, moon and eleven stars bowed before him; this was also fulfilled, in Genesis 46:31;  the whole household of Jacob migrated to Egypt, and were under Joseph's jurisdiction and he fed them all and they did not die of hunger;  therefore, our Father can use any one to fulfill promises in our lives; let us not rule people out from our lives but reach out and touch lives of those we have not spoken to awhile;  after the death of Jacob, as stated in the above text, his brothers went and fell down before his face, and offered themselves as servants to him; however, Joseph pacified them; saying, "Don't be afraid; am I in the place of God?;  Joseph did not take our Father's glory to himself, he gave all glory unto him;  for it was his handiwork to bring his promises to Abraham into fruition by his grace given through Joseph upon his children;  today, through the sufferings, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; humanity receive free grace, salvation and life everlasting.


CONCLUSION:   


Dearly beloved, the ways of our Father are mysterious to accomplish his works in his creation;  let us be careful of who we despite today,  they maybe our sources of enjoyments tomorrow; rather, let us watch out for one another, not plot evil against one another, but love one another as ourselves, forgive our offenders, forget their offenses, live peaceably with all men;  though Joseph's brothers were envious of his dreams, his dreams were not really about him, but were meant to fulfillment the promises of our Father to his great grandfather Abraham,  therefore, if we are going through life's turbulence, our struggles might not be about us, but about purposes of our Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior forever: if we are in any life turbulence today;  let us be strengthen with faith, to know that all covenanted blessings are coming to pass through the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Amen and Amen!


QUOTE OF THE DAY:


(KJV.)  Romans 8:28;  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
