THE FAITHFUL

Do you believe in Divine destiny? Do you believe that God has a plan for your life? Many Christians have dreams and visions of what they want to accomplish for God. They see the great master plan God has for their lives. Some people have been laughed at as they share their precious dreams and goals God has planted in their hearts. Too many people have let the cares of this world; sin, bad choices, and intimidation push these dreams and goals aside in their lives. No matter how far off track you are, God's plan has not changed for your life. Don't be tempted to give up when things don't go your way. When God called you and planted His dreams for you in your heart, He knew the mistakes you would make and every discouraging battle that you would fight. Be tenacious in your Christian walk. Refuse to be defeated. " Joy comes in the morning."

In the last chapter of Genesis, Joseph is a wonderful example of one that had great dreams. It seemed as if his dreams would never come true. Not because of his choices, but because of the sin that was around him. He didn't give up. Joseph went from a pit to the overseer of Pharaoh's house. Then when he was wrongly thrown in prison, he went from prisoner to overseer of the prison. After interpreting Pharaoh's dream, he was taken from prison and made a ruler in Egypt, second in power only to Pharaoh. If circumstances have you in a pit or prison, you must remain faithful to God to see your dream come true.

Joseph never sought rewards or honor. He was faithful and content where he was and accepted the responsibilities God gave him. We should always be content and do our best. Our work should not be for personal gain, but for serving God.

In Matthew 10:35-45 Jesus teaches that the greatest ambition is to be a slave of all.
Genesis 39:3-4 "Now his master saw that the Lord was with Joseph and how that the Lord caused all that he did to prosper in his house. So Joseph found favor in his sight…and he made him overseer over his house and all that he owned he put in his charge."
