Genesis 40:7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?
Good Morning Saints,
This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Whenever I sing that song, I remember Joseph, who in 13 years of test, lived each day in the joy of the Lord. Today we will meditate upon how to live joyful amidst the trials.
What a startling statement from Joseph when he asked the 2 prisoners ( Butler and the Baker) why do you look so sad today?
Imagine a prisoner himself who was ill-treated, betrayed, humiliated, insulted and thrown into prison never spoke a word against the Lord but quietly believed that Lord is above all and He will surely bring his plans to pass. What a Faith!!!
Saints today when we are tired in our journey called life. Let's look to Joseph and learn how to be happy in your troubles, pain, sickness, humiliation.
Paul too in the following verse said that he had to go through all the ordeals buy still kept his mind and heart on the the kingdom and the prize which was awaiting him.
2 Corinthians 11:27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
Saints, God know the pain you are going through, He will surely bring his plans to pass.
Today commit you life and say this small prayer. Jesus, I am a sinner, I acknowledge you as my saviour, come into my heart, make me the person you want me to be. I believe you are the son of God who dies for my sins and rose again on the third day and you are coming back to judge the world.
Friends if you say this simple prayer, Bible says you are born again, you are in the hands of the Holy Spirit who will recreate you to the person who is pleasing to the Lord.
God bless
