Always Purpose

But Joseph said to them, 'Don't be afraid. Am I in the place of God? You intended to harm me but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.' Genesis 50:19-20

Joseph had reached maturity only as a result of the journey he had been on. He was then able to look back and understand the purpose for which he went through what he did.

We all go through seasons that we don't fully understand. Some can be long. Some can be short.

The worst thing the enemy can do is make you feel like what you are going through has no purpose. This produces fear.

Over the years I have discovered the best way to deal with fear is by speaking out the Word of God. If today you are going through a situation that is difficult or confusing, let the following words soak into your spirit.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28 

...being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6

'For I know the plans I have for you' declares the Lord. 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' Jeremiah 29:11

In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in accordance with the purpose of His will. Ephesians 1:11.

We will always be left in the place of trusting Him more.  

Study: Job 38
