GOD’S PLAN UNFOLDS (Genesis 41:1-53) I just love it when a good plan unfolds and it goes just like it was supposed to happen from the very beginning. Now, that doesn’t happen very often for me, but it always happens when God plans something. Last week, we left Joseph in prison, forgotten by his family, forgotten by Potiphar, and forgotten by the butler who had promised to tell Pharaoh about his plight. Almost every person that Joseph had come to depend on had forgotten him. But Joseph...

I just love it when a good plan unfolds and it goes just like it was supposed to happen from the very beginning. Now, that doesn’t happen very often for me, but it always happens when God plans something.

Last week, we left Joseph in prison, forgotten by his family, forgotten by Potiphar, and forgotten by the butler who had promised to tell Pharaoh about his plight. Almost every person that Joseph had come to depend on had forgotten him. But Joseph’s faith was not in man, it was in God. While everyone else may have forgotten Joseph, God had not. God had a plan and a purpose for Joseph’s life, and He was making it come true.

This is the reason that God gives us the story of Joseph. As believers, we know that God has promised to be with us every step of our lives. Through hardships and trials, as well as the good times of our lives, God is with us. Our strength does not come from men, or the world. Our strength lives within us. God has placed His Holy Spirit in our hearts to be our strength, and it is through the power of the Holy Spirit that God gives us the power to endure any trial that is placed before us.

Click on the play button to hear a tremendous message about the power of God’s working in the lives of those who love Him. Joseph faced tremendous trials in his life, yet God was there with him each step of the way. Yet this only happened because Joseph fully and completely surrendered his life to the will of God. God would have handled it anyway without Joseph, but just look at the blessings that Joseph would have missed in his life if he had not been obedient to the call of God in his life.

Just imagine the blessings that you have missed in your life, simply because you have not been obedient to the call of God in your life. God used an obedient Joseph to perform great works in His name. What works can God use you for, if you will be obedient?
