GOD's plans are always far greater than anything we can ever dream up for ourselves. Let us tonight consider the story of Joseph. Joseph was his father's favourite son. If he had not been, the greatest part of the plot would not have happened.
Joseph was a dreamer when he was young. And if he had not confided the dreams to his brothers. The next part of the story would also not have happened.
So let us take the story and look at the plan that GOD wove in this story. Joseph dreamt that his father and his brothers would bow down to him. And this provoked his brothers to jealousy.
Being his father's favourite son, his father had woven for him a coat of many colours. This identified him from far away which allowed his brothers to hatch a plan to get him out of the their lives. They sold Joseph into slavery and he landed up in Egypt. There, apart from a few incidents, (also part of GOD's plan), he rose to be the second most important man in Egypt after Pharaoh. This allowed Joseph to not only save his family from starvation, but to deliver them out of Canaan and into Egypt. Where, the, ironical thing is, in later generations, they all became slaves to the Egyptians.
This allowed the rise of Moses who ultimately led the Israelites out of Egypt and took them back to the "promised land".
Just read this story and see the wonder of our FATHER GOD's hand in everything and every part of this story. And be amazed. I always am by the GREATNESS of our FATHER GOD.
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, How GREAT THOU ART! How GREAT THOW ART! I come to YOU tonight with an attitude of gratitude for making me a part of YOUR plan on earth. I thank YOU FATHER. FATHER show me how to spread YOUR light on earth. I pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay wondrously GOD blessed today!
