The Lord is with you!

3rd June 2010

Are you in a situation where everything seems to be against you?
Have you been betrayed and attacked for no apparent reason?
Are you in a place where you seem like you are all alone without a caring friend and without good Christian fellowship?
Are you down to your last ringgit and you don't know how you are going to make it through?

You may be in one or at most two of the above situations but I'm quite sure that you are not in all of it at once. Can you imagine being in all of the above circumstances?

There was a young man who experienced all of the most severe and adversed circumstances of life all at once. Betrayed and sold as a slave by his brothers to a far away pagan land.
Slogged as a slave there without family and any form of "Christian" fellowship or worship.
Seduced and then wrongly accused of committing a crime that he never did and then thrown into prison.

Yet in all of these things Joseph continued to honour God in his life. God was with him and God blessed him. He feared God and did not sin against Him. And in doing so, God was pleased with his obedient, God fearing faith and God blessed him and prospered him and eventually fulfilled His wonderful plans in and through his life.

Let's read a passage of Joseph's story in Genesis.

(Gen 39:2 NKJV) The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
(Gen 39:3 NKJV) And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand.
(Gen 39:4 NKJV) So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.
(Gen 39:5 NKJV) So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house and in the field.

In the circumstances that you are in, remember the Lord is with you! He never leaves you nor forsakes you! CHOOSE TO TRUST IN HIM AND HONOUR GOD!
Choose to think, say and do the things that are right in His sight.
God will always be on your side when you choose His will!

God wants you to succeed!
God wants you blessed!
God wants to use you to be a great blessing!

No matter how adverse your situations YOU CAN CHOOSE TO DO RIGHT!
The Lord will back you up all the way!
He will be with you!
He will help you !
He will strengthen you!

You WILL OVERCOME!
YOU WILL BE BLESSED!

AMEN! HALELUJAH!
