Blessed to Have a God Who is My Way Maker, My Promise Keeper, and My Miracle Worker! What an Awesome Life He Has Given Me!

 

Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his finger and put it on Joseph’s finger. He dressed him in robes of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck.

-Genesis 41:42, NIV

God is always foreshadowing us! He is there to help and support us in all our needs!  Joel Osteen sent a nice Bible verse, write-up, and prayer today about this. He has some of the best Spiritual information for us, like God. Joel tells the story about the Bible and Joseph, he said, "when Joseph was a teenager, his father gave him a special robe of many colors that represented favor, but his jealous brothers bloodied that robe and sold Joseph into slavery in Egypt. For thirteen years he was a slave and then a prisoner. I can imagine that he desperately wanted his robe back, wanted his old life back, but that would have kept him from God’s purpose of putting on a robe of great honor, influence, and authority as prime minister of Egypt. The colorful robe simply foreshadowed what God was about to do. Don’t spend your life wishing you could go back to when you knew you were favored—before the setback, before the health issue, before the layoff. Here’s the key: Not having the robe of many colors doesn’t mean that you don’t have favor; it means greater favor is coming. You had to lose that robe to step into the awesome future God has in store. You haven’t seen, heard, or imagined the greater things God is about to do." I have always loved the story of Joseph and how God steps in to do great things for him when he is unfairly treated by his brothers. God is so good to us! We just need to uphold our end of the bargain, to have good attitudes, follow God's commandments, and the teachings of Jesus and be people of goodwill, he will also do what He did with Joseph and make it all right! Thank you God for looking out for all of us too, like you did for Joseph! 

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that there’s nothing You can’t do, and there’s not a mountain You can’t move to get me to where You want me to be. Thank You that You are my way maker, my promise keeper, my miracle worker. I believe that I have Your favor and am about to step into an awesome future. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
