Daily Prayer
Dear Lord God,
So often I hear what people are going through and I feel sad and sorry for them.
And when I go through tough times, I often become overwhelmed about it.
But when I look at the story Joseph in the Old Testament and the betrayals and trials that he went through; and when I see how You led him through it all, I understand that You also have a plan for me and you can bring good for all that happens in my life. Genesis 37+
If Joseph had not been betrayed and put in that pit by his brothers, and then sold into slavery, and then wrongly accused and then taken to prison, he would not have been in the position to save his family, the children of Israel, and to save the people of Egypt as well as people from around the world.
As Joseph later told his brothers...
But as for you, you meant evil against me;
but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.
Genesis 50:20
Lord, please help me to remember Joseph and his story when I’m in the midst of troubles and trials.
Please help me to trust You with my day and with my future
I pray that my life will be a “Joseph life,” accomplishing Your purpose through hard times and good times.
Please do what is necessary to use my life for Your Kingdom's glory.
In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray,
Amen.
